Full Stack Engineer Internship: Summer 2021
Cedar is a patient payment and engagement platform that elevates the total patient experience beyond clinical care. The platform leverages data science and technology to deliver modern intelligence to providers and simplify the healthcare experience for patients.
Cedar has built a platform that combines data science and machine learning to connect patients with healthcare providers in a way that helps solve the critical challenges of patient billing and payment. Our technology improves the overall experience of patient billing and engagement, enabling providers to thrive in a rapidly changing environment while helping patients understand the cost of their care.
As we continue to rapidly grow, we are in need of a Full Stack Engineering Intern to join the Pre-Visit Pillar of Engineering.

- Greenfield development in the newest part or Cedar’s stack, implementing new technologies and frameworks, and establishing new design patterns.
- Building out game-changing end-to-end patient engagement features.
- Exposure to all areas of the codebase as we build up this use case on top of Cedar’s originally post-visit focused infrastructure.
Cedar’s pre-visit product is in the beta phase of development, so our team regularly engages deeply with our clients and rapidly iterates on product and technical ideas, while still maintaining ownership of the overall vision for the product. We’re seeking people who are excited about innovation in healthcare, have solid technical skills, and are comfortable working with ambiguity.
