About the role

We are seeking an exceptional Manager, Product Applied Science to build and lead a team at the core of Garner's product. Our members rely on us to answer hard questions — Which doctor should I see? What will it cost? When should we reach out, and how? — and the quality of those answers is determined by the algorithms behind them.

What they're looking for

  • 6+ years of industry experience as an Applied Scientist, Machine Learning Engineer, Research Scientist, or equivalent, or 4+ years of industry experience with a relevant advanced degree, PhDs preferred
  • Deep technical credibility, with the range and judgment to lead scientists who are experts in their own right, and the willingness to stay hands-on
  • Strong judgment in choosing between statistical models, heuristics, optimization approaches, and simpler algorithmic methods depending on the problem
  • Strong applied problem-solving skills, with the ability to define good metrics and then deliver solutions that improve them
  • A bias toward action, quickly translating ideas into working prototypes to test approaches
  • Strong communication skills, including at the executive level, with a track record of driving alignment across teams and functions
More about this role

Garner is on a mission to transform the U.S. healthcare system — and we’re the only proven player doing exactly that. We partner with employers to redesign how healthcare works: applying 550+ proprietary clinical metrics across 80+ specialties to a dataset of 320M+ patients to identify the best-performing doctors, then using compelling incentives to steer members to the care that helps them get healthier, faster.

The result is a rare “win win” — better care and lower costs for both members and employers. In just five years, our work has helped over 2.5 million people access higher-quality care and saved $1B in healthcare costs. We recently raised our Series E and have doubled five years running. If you've ever wanted your work to solve a problem that touches every person in this country, this is the opportunity to do exactly that. You'd be joining a team fundamentally reimagining healthcare in the U.S. — and using AI to scale that impact further and faster than anyone else can.
