Job Description

At Nym, we’re simplifying healthcare by automating the accurate interpretation of clinical language.

Our interdisciplinary team has developed technology that can understand clinical language and provides an entirely new way of analyzing and decoding medical records into clear, concise, and actionable information. This ultimately ensures clinical and administrative teams can spend more time focused on patient care.

Our engine currently processes over six million charts annually in more than 300 emergency department and urgent care settings across the US. We are backed by top-tier VCs and growing rapidly, with offices in NYC and Tel Aviv.
