Our healthcare system is the leading cause of personal bankruptcy in the U.S. Every year, over 50 million Americans suffer adverse financial consequences as a result of seeking care, from lower credit scores to garnished wages. The challenge is only getting worse, as high deductible health plans are the fastest growing plan design in the U.S.
Cedar’s mission is to leverage data science, smart product design and personalization to make healthcare more affordable and accessible. Today, healthcare providers still engage with its consumers in a “one-size-fits-all” approach; and Cedar is excited to leverage consumer best practices to deliver a superior experience.
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.
We are looking for a Platform Engineer with a passion for testing and developer experience to join our small but highly efficient team. The first problem you will solve as an engineer on this team is targeted testing. We use a monorepo to store our code and currently our CI pipelines test our code too broadly. We want you to implement a tool that will determine which tests need to run based on the affected code. Improving this part of our CI system will make an impact by enabling us to provide quicker, more accurate feedback to developers and it will help us save on CI infrastructure costs.
Over the long term we want you to develop and implement a testing strategy for Cedar that provides developers with fast, meaningful feedback and allows Cedar to ship new products with a high degree of confidence that they are reliable and bug-free. Other problems you will work on to support this goal could include migrating our CI system to use Github Actions, improving test isolation, improving test targeting in CI, developing a strategy to promote better test coverage, and more.
The Platform pillar is tasked with building, delivering, and maintaining the technology platforms that Cedar builds its business on. Our Application Platform team is responsible for building tools and processes that support the software delivery lifecycle at Cedar. The three core areas of focus for our team are Developer Experience, Release, and Reliability. Our goal is to provide Cedar’s engineers with a best in class developer experience that enables them to quickly and efficiently ship features that are well tested and reliable in production.

About us
Cedar was co-founded by Florian Otto and Arel Lidow in 2016 after a negative medical billing experience inspired them to help improve our healthcare system. With a commitment to solving billing and patient experience issues, Cedar has become a leading healthcare technology company fueled by remarkable growth. Over the past several years, we’ve raised more than $350 million in funding from investors such as Andreessen Horowitz and Tiger Global, bringing Cedar’s valuation to $3.2 billion.
As of December 2023, Cedar is engaging with 25 million patients on an annualized basis, and is on target to process $2.6 billion in patient payments annually. Cedar’s ambition is to serve 50-60 million Americans by 2025, about half of the U.S. population that makes medical payments annually. Cedar partners with more than 55 leading healthcare providers and payers including Highmark Inc., Allegheny Health Network, Novant Health, Allina Health and Providence.
