Company mission
To transform the healthcare economy, delivering high quality and affordable care for all.
Role
Who you are
- Currently pursuing a Bachelor's or Master's in Computer Science or related STEM field (expected graduation Fall 2027–Spring 2028)
- Solid CS fundamentals with exposure to front-end (JavaScript, React) or back-end (Python, Node.js) technologies; familiarity with databases or cloud platforms (AWS, Docker) is a plus
- Exposure to or interest in building with AI coding agents (we use Claude Code) is a plus
- Strong problem-solver who enjoys breaking down challenges and finding elegant solutions
- Self-starter who takes ownership of their work and is motivated by real-world impact
- Clear communicator who can discuss technical ideas with both technical and non-technical audiences, and takes feedback well
- Excited by fast-paced environments and eager to stretch their skills
- A desire to do work that matters: and to be held to a high standard while doing it. You're energized by a mission with measurable outcomes, not just good intentions. You engage with AI tools as part of how you do your best work, and hold yourself accountable to outcomes that matter beyond your team’s metrics
- Few roles offer this combination: work that is genuinely hard, a mission that is genuinely important, and a team that is genuinely invested in your success. If that’s what you’re looking for, we’d love to meet you

- Select interns will be offered full-time roles upon successful completion of the program
- Use AI to build, optimize, and maintain software systems
- Collaborate across disciplines to understand our domain and iterate on projects
- Participate in code reviews, sharing your insights and learning from others
- Engage in problem solving sessions with senior engineers and team leads where your unique perspective will be valued

Our take
An overworked US healthcare system has resulted in long waits and expensive prices, meaning that patients can't access the care that they need. Garner Health creates digital services that allow patients to find a medical expert that fits their specific needs, whatever their insurance circumstances are.
The startup provides an app that analyses local health-insurance claims history through AI. This data is used to recommend local medical professionals that will work with a patient's circumstances whilst providing direct communication channels for liaising. This helps patients to identify the highest-quality doctors and helps doctors improve how they practice medicine.
Despite other companies providing similar bespoke healthcare services, Garner Health shows a cutting edge by partnering with patient employers. This provides the financial incentive that employers must cover all or a portion of medical expenses, making healthcare financially accessible for all involved. The company has good funding at its back, and back in 2022 partnered with Marathon Health towards reducing the inefficiencies of specialty referrals.
