Clinical Data - Senior / Staff Data Scientist

About Sprinter Health

At Sprinter Health, our mission is reimagining how people access care by bringing it directly to their homes. Nearly 30% of patients in the U.S. skip preventive or chronic care simply because they can't get to a doctor's office. For many, the ER becomes their first touchpoint with the healthcare system—driving over $300B in avoidable costs every year.

By using the same technologies that power leading marketplace and last-mile platforms, we deliver care where people are, especially those who need it most. So far, we've supported more than 2 million patients across 22 states, completed 130,000+ in-home visits, and maintained a 92 NPS. Our team of clinicians, technologists, and operators have raised over $125M to date investors like a16z, General Catalyst, GV, and Accel and enjoy multi-year runway.

Data is core to how we deliver care, allocate clinicians, and understand population risk—and we're now building the team to scale that impact.

About the Role

We're hiring a Senior / Staff Data Scientist to tackle high-impact problems across logistics, patient behavior, clinical operations, and population health. This is a 0?1 role where your work directly shapes how care is delivered, optimised, and scaled. You'll turn messy, real-world healthcare data into insights that drive product direction, operational efficiency, and patient outcomes.

If you like asking hard questions and using data to solve problems that matter in the real world, this is that opportunity.
