Manager, Learning and Development

Karoo is a venture-backed startup transforming cardiology care through a comprehensive, technology-enabled health management model that improves patient outcomes while reducing total cost of care and enhancing revenue opportunities for health plans. Our value-based approach creates a collaborative framework that enhances provider effectiveness by aligning incentives across all stakeholders: patients, providers, and payers, resulting in superior cardiac care with greater efficiency across the system.

Karoo integrates a curated network of cardiac caregivers and providers, personalized care navigation, and a technology-driven care and key insights platform to rapidly address clinical and non-clinical needs throughout the patient journey. By proactively managing care and closing gaps, Karoo ensures that patients receive the right care without delay, reducing avoidable hospitalizations and improving longer-term outcomes, thereby creating revenue and cost of care savings opportunities for payers.

This is a rare opportunity to join a mission-driven founding team at a pivotal stage and help define the future of healthcare, with the power to improve the lives of patients with cardiovascular disease, the number one cause of death in America today.
