Want to apply your software engineering skills to do something truly meaningful? Do you want to use modern mobile, web, and cloud technology to help revolutionize healthcare?

What is Pulsara?
In Simplest Terms … Pulsara connects people when seconds matter.
The Pulsara platform is a HIPAA-compliant, secure, easy-to-use app that unites the entire care team — even if they are in different departments or organizations (rural or urban)! By replacing multiple phone calls, radio reports, faxes, and pagers with one unified patient channel, care providers see reduced treatment times, reduced costs, and improve the lives of both patients and caregivers.
We build native iOS and Android apps, and a modern web-based app, all connected to a Cloud-based back-end. Check out http://www.pulsara.com and https://www.pulsara.com/ems for overview videos of the product, and the problems it solves.

Our backgrounds, talents, and interests are widely varied, but one thing we all have in common is a desire to help build the future of healthcare communication: connected teams.
