Lead Software Engineer, Front End & Mobile

About Us

Heartbeat Health is a venture-backed health tech startup in New York.

We are working to deliver the most effective, efficient, and engaging virtual heart care in the world.

By 2030, over 40% of the US population will have heart disease, with direct and indirect costs approaching $1 trillion USD.

Heart disease may be the most important health crisis we confront in our time. 

Heartbeat addresses this problem via virtual cardiology services that include diagnostic interpretation, telecardiology, and procedural referrals to bring virtual-first care to cardiology, and improve the outcomes and efficiency for cardiac patients.

Our team consists of passionate and proven physicians, engineers, scientists, designers, and founders attacking this problem from first principles, applying human-centered design, and developing evidence-based AI to solve this global issue.

We collaborate with the American College of Cardiology, and we have been recognized as one of the 150 most promising digital health startups by CB Insights.

We recently closed our Series B funding and are backed by Echo Health Ventures, Optum Ventures, DaVita Venture Group, .406 Ventures, Kindred Ventures, Lerer Hippeau, Designer Fund, and Max Ventures.

We’ve been featured in TechCrunch, CNBC, Fast Company, and Forbes.
