Project description

Come for the mission. Stay for the experience.
Let’s keep things simple: we are an unbelievably talented, hard-working, and compassionate team driving towards a mission that impacts a huge amount of people who use Healthcare benefits in the US.

Following an explosive 2019 (raising $30M in Series C funding, awards for Chicago’s Best Tech Startup and Chicago’s Best Place to Work, adding 50+ key team members and more), we’re continuing down the path of high growth and high impact.

HealthJoy is committed to creating a diverse environment and is proud to be an equal opportunity employer.
