What the job involves
- As a Sr. Front-End Software Engineer, you will own the design, implementation, and maintenance of user interfaces that AKASA and our customers use to manage mission-critical medical billing for millions of patients

Our take
The US healthcare system is both financially and operationally complex, costing patients and providers an estimated $500B annually in medical billing and insurance administrative expenses. AKASA, formerly Alpha Health, addresses this issue with its Unified Automation™ technology, designed to streamline revenue cycle operations and ease the healthcare burden.
AKASA's approach combines human expertise with AI-driven automation. Its machine-learning tools are supported by revenue cycle specialists who handle complex cases and refine the algorithms. This blend of human and machine intelligence could reshape the healthcare industry.
If successful, AKASA's model could serve as a blueprint for other sectors, demonstrating how automation and human oversight can work together to solve complex operational challenges.
