About Teton
Teton is redefining the role of healthcare workers through cutting-edge AI technology and a great product experience. As populations get older and staff shortages grow, the healthcare system is under pressure. Our mission is to decrease the cost of healthcare while improving the quality of care. Our product enables care teams to intervene, prevent and operate more efficiently. Our ambient sensors in resident rooms capture activity, sleep, respiration, gait and more. These signals are used both to react fast to risk events, like falls, and for long term health analysis, so care teams can take action.
Teton is scaling fast, operating in Nordics, UK, DACH and US. We recently raised $20M in a Series A round. Expect travel to the US to meet users and team members. We focus relentlessly on product excellence and user experience, deploying solutions at speed that make a tangible difference for carers. We are an aspiring meritocracy biased towards action, striving to always raise the bar. If you are driven by impact, speed and leveling up, this might be the place for you. If you are looking for a 9-17 job, perform best with structure and struggle dealing with unknowns, this is not for you. We believe close collaboration between a hard working, high agency team enables the fastest and most efficient iteration cycles, helping us build an impactful product that healthcare professionals truly love to use.
The Job
We are looking for a strong backend engineer to help scale the core infrastructure powering Teton's platform. Our systems ingest and process continuous streams of real-time data from thousands of deployed edge devices across care facilities. These systems power critical alerts and operational workflows used by healthcare staff around the clock.
