If shaping what the future of healthcare looks like in hospitals and care centers across the country sounds like where you want your talents and career to go next, we’d love to welcome you to SONIFI Health.
We’re looking for a Software Architect to define the architecture, design standards, and technical direction of SONIFI Health’s software solutions.
