Senior Platform Engineer - Belle

About Belle

Belle is a fast growing engagement company that is revolutionizing home healthcare – and it all begins with the feet. With 25M U.S. seniors no longer able to see or reach their feet, a lack of self care and mobility challenges cost the health insurance plans $38B in preventable medical spending every year.

Belle trains and manages a network of nail technicians or “Belle Technicians” who provide in-home foot care (aka medical pedicures). Belle uses cutting edge data science to identify those most in need on behalf of health plans and deploys its services accordingly. While in the home, Belle Technicians complete assessments and screenings, often being the first to identify emerging issues below and above the knee. As these issues arise, a team of remote nurses coordinate care with other healthcare providers - preventing serious and costly episodes.
