Job Description

Verily, an Alphabet company, lives at the intersection of technology, data science and healthcare. Our mission is to make the world’s health data useful so that people enjoy longer and healthier lives. We are developing tools and devices to collect, organize and activate health data, and creating interventions to prevent and manage disease.

Our team combines expertise in healthcare, data science and technology to improve the health and well-being of our communities. We are developing the infrastructure and solutions to harness the profusion of health information for good. Our data-driven solutions span three primary areas: research, care and innovation. Programs include Project Baseline - our research initiative to increase participation and evidence generation in clinical research; Onduo - our personalized virtual care platform, which includes connected tools, lifestyle coaching and clinical support; and Debug - our effort to reduce the threat of mosquito-borne diseases by combining machine learning with sterile insect technique. We’re also actively working to combat the spread of COVID-19 through new programs like Healthy at Work.

One critical component of Verily’s strategy is our work to create a Health Platform focused on improving patient outcomes and lowering costs. A major pillar of this effort is Onduo, our Disease Management project which helps patients remotely manage chronic disease, where we are realizing the mission of using novel sensors and telemedicine to drive behavior change and outcomes. Onduo is currently caring for patients and we have strong evidence of clinical improvement - achieved through a combination of continuous glucose monitoring, a virtual clinic, health coaching and a behavior change app. We are currently working hard to expand our impact by treating people with more chronic conditions.

As a senior member in our Disease Management effort, you will help us design and build out the next generation of our solution, which includes patient facing apps and a console for the care team. This position requires a breadth of technical expertise to lay the technical groundwork for effectively scaling our system to allow multiple small engineering teams to execute in parallel. It also requires collaboration with industry experts like clinicians, regulators, biostatisticians, hardware engineers and commercial leads to define and build the right product.
