Controller, Business, Financial Compliance

Canopy is one of the fastest-growing companies focused on workforce safety in healthcare. Backed by leading venture investors, Canopy is transforming how hospitals protect frontline staff and manage the care environment through a location intelligence platform that combines wearable safety technology, real-time location, intelligent alerting, managed services, and enterprise integrations built specifically for healthcare environments.

We operate in high-trust, high-reliability environments where software quality, operational resilience, and customer experience matter deeply. Today, more than 70 leading health systems and 1,000 healthcare facilities rely on Canopy to protect frontline staff, improve emergency response, strengthen employee confidence, and support workforce retention.

We are scaling rapidly, expanding our product portfolio, and partnering with some of the most recognized health systems in the country. This is an opportunity to join a high-growth, venture-backed company at a pivotal stage, where you can make a meaningful impact on both the business and the safety of healthcare workers nationwide.
