đź‘‹ About Suvera:
Suvera is a digital health start-up on a mission to keep people in good health wherever they are in the world. We partner with general practices in the UK to deliver a virtual clinic that proactively supports the management of patients with long-term conditions. Today, we manage over 150,000 patients and have a robust pipeline to more than 5x that by the end of 2024. We have merely scratched the surface for what we can do for both clinical operations and chronic care pathways.
We have a team of phenomenal advisors, including Professor Bryan Williams who is the chair of Medicine at UCL and the man behind high blood pressure guidelines for the UK. We are a small (c. 80 people) cross-functional team from all backgrounds, and have our our own internal Care Team which employs both clinicians and care advisors.
We are backed by Google for Startups and the preeminent, global healthcare and technology venture capital firm Morningside Ventures, led by Dr. Gerald Chan. We have ambitions to become the largest healthcare provider in the world.
đź‘‹ About our tech team
Our tech team aims to create seamless technology that improves patient experience and empowers our in-house clinical team.
We use TypeScript across our stack (React & Node.js) and declare our infrastructure as code. Using CI/CD we automate deployment onto Serverless architecture. Our platform data is stored in MongoDB and we have extensive analytics tooling using Snowflake, DBT, Tableau and Mixpanel to enable data driven decisions across the business. We have robust monitoring, logging and reporting using AWS Cloudwatch and Sentry, and we collaborate using Git, Slack and Notion.
We are very aware that the products we build are relied on to provide care and keep security and stability at the core of everything we build. All of our engineers are full stack and have a solid understanding across the tools and languages we use.
At the moment, the tech team has people who identify as LGBTQ+, working parents, and is racially and ethnically diverse with 7 nationalities and counting!
