The Consumer Platform Team here at Bright is creating the most remarkable healthcare technology that places power and results back into the hands of the patient.

We are a team that is constantly optimizing to improve results.

We’re doers who love getting into the weeds to solve problems for ourselves and our community of members.

There is no bureaucracy or red tape. We are insanely biased toward action, led by data and problem-solving.

We’re Making Healthcare Right. Together.

We are realizing a completely different healthcare experience where payors, providers, doctors, and patients can all feel connected, aligned and unified on the same team. By eradicating the frictions of competing needs, we are making it possible to give everyone more of what they want and deserve. We do this by:

Focusing on Consumers
We understand patient pain points, eliminating complexity while increasing transparency, for greater access and easier navigation.

Building on Alignment
We integrate and align individual incentives at all levels, from financing to optimization to delivery of care.

Powered by Technology

We employ our purpose built, integrated data platform to connect clinical, financial, and social data, to deliver exceptional outcomes.

Lead Product Designer

COLLABORATE + INNOVATE

Use your gifts to drive transformation

While Bright Health’s mission is inspiring to Francis, she said her peers are the most rewarding aspect of her job. “I love that our teams and leaders work together to develop ideas and solutions that utilize each person’s strengths and expertise,” she said. Recently, this teamwork translated into the launch of the company’s prior authorization portal, which Francis considers a gamechanger for healthcare providers and admins.

Together, we’re fixing an industry that is broken.

SVP Software Engineering

MOVE FAST + SHAPE THE FUTURE

Achieve success with passion and talent

“The world moves fast, and the window of opportunity may not exist if we strive for perfection,” Amin said. He applies this philosophy to his team’s engineering work, which involves continuously testing out ideas and embracing a “failing fast” mentality. According to Amin, “craftsmanship is the core of engineering,” which is why his team never cuts corners in terms of the quality of their code.

We’re not a cog in the machine. Rather, we’re building the machine.

Patrick Adiaheno

Lead Product Designer

DESIGN + SIMPLIFY HEALTHCARE

Redefine the user experience to spark change

Adiaheno knows the importance of understanding the user journey, which he said is central to his team’s latest project: the DocSquad app. In order to create new features for the app, he and his peers use FigJam to sketch ideas and think through user flows before working on higher fidelity mockups on a Figma file. Once complete, Adiaheno said DocSquad will make the ins and outs of healthcare as simple as ordering a ride via Uber.

We want designers who know when to think at the pixel level and when to focus on the bigger picture.

An Insider's view of Bright Health

What’s the vibe like in the office?

The office has a relaxed and laid back vibe but people are very serious about their work - perfect!

Anthony

Data Engineer

What does your typical day look like?

My day is so varied, given how quickly we're growing, which is fulfilling for me. I have a good balance of strategic and tactical work in my day as well as time to focus and time to collaborate.

Jen

VP, Digital

What makes someone successful on your team?

A hard-working team player who thinks first and codes next is likely to learn a lot and quickly become a valuable member of the team. Lots of experience with some of our tooling is always nice, but if someone can't knowledge-share well or responds poorly to code reviews and other requests for collaboration, it'll be a tough fit.

Brian

Software Engineer 3

How do your team's ideas influence the company's direction?

We hire smart individuals who thrive on accomplishment and purpose. Our teams are exposed to the bigger picture through constant communication and dialogues – that encourages them to come up with innovative solutions to problems. We've made significant adjustments on our direction in technology and process that were initiated by the team.
