Healthcare Data Analyst 🔥


We Breathe Life Into Data At Komodo Health, our mission is to reduce the global burden of disease. And we believe that smarter use of data is essential to this mission. That’s why we built the Healthcare Map — the industry’s largest, most complete, precise view of the U.S. healthcare system — by combining de-identified, real-world patient data with innovative algorithms and decades of clinical experience. The Healthcare Map serves as our foundation for a powerful suite of software applications, helping us answer healthcare’s most complex questions for our partners. Across the healthcare ecosystem, we’re helping our clients unlock critical insights to track detailed patient behaviors and treatment patterns, identify gaps in care, address unmet patient needs, and reduce the global burden of disease.  As we pursue these goals, it remains essential to us that we stay grounded in our values: be awesome, seek growth, deliver “wow,” and enjoy the ride. At Komodo, you will be joining a team of ambitious, supportive Dragons with diverse backgrounds but a shared passion to deliver on our mission to reduce the burden of disease — and enjoy the journey along the way. You will be part of the Market Access team, where we create tools to discover, aggregate, and analyze complex streams of publicly available data. We offer data and products that help life sciences companies understand the financial and administrative barriers preventing patients from receiving care, and develop strategies to overcome those barriers. The team is responsible for ensuring our data is timely, accurate, and complete; and that we continually improve the tools and processes that keep it that way. Looking back in your first 12 months at Komodo, you will... Use data to find clever, elegant solutions to challenging healthcare questions. Develop detailed, highly differentiated, and valuable knowledge about the U.S. healthcare delivery system, in particular the role of health insurance companies as facilitators and gatekeepers of care. Do a healthy amount of reading, researching and auditing/spot-checking data (organization-critical work) because it’s the best way to learn about the industry. As your background knowledge and experience grows, you will be responsible for designing improvements to our tools and processes to make your workflow faster, more accurate, and more efficient. A typical day in your third month may include spot checking PDF documents against data that has been scraped from those documents to ensure that the scraping process executed properly. After being here approximately six months, you will take responsibility for increasingly large components of our data collection process. Further growth within the role will be dependent on your interests and skills. Some employees in this role have taken a technical path and work on application development, some have become internal subject matter experts, and some have grown to manage larger research teams. What you bring to Komodo: We need a quantitative minded analytical thinker who enjoys using data and technology to solve problems. The ideal candidate can talk to a customer in the morning, think through how we could make their life easier over lunch, and start building a solution in the afternoon. For the analyst role, we have had the most success finding exceptional generalists with zero or one year of post-college experience. We do not have a laundry list of prerequisites, but some things that would catch our eye are: Concentration in a quantitative field (econ, philosophy, math, cs, most sciences, etc.) A cool thesis or capstone project A professor who would go to the mat for you Experience working with large datasets Familiarity with US managed care / pharmaceutical industry You failed an exam because you spent the night before building a model of worldwide lobster populations to win an inane late night argument with your roommates even though they already forgot the conversation Work experience, independent projects, or classwork requiring quant / tech skills like SQL, python, or similar are evidence of a good fit. You will sweat the details and be a systems-oriented thinker. You’ll always be asking how your current task fits into the broader picture. You will generate ideas for improving your tools and processes. This is not a political or health policy focused role, but you’ll enjoy it more if learning about the arcane quirks of U.S. healthcare administration and insurance coverage appeals to you. #LI-RW1 #LI-RemoteWhere You’ll Work Komodo Health has a hybrid work model; we recognize the power of choice and importance of flexibility for the well-being of both our company and our individual Dragons. Roles may be completely remote based anywhere in the country listed, remote but based in a specific region, or local (commuting distance) to one of our hubs in San Francisco, New York City, or Chicago with remote work options.  What We Offer On top of our commitment to providing competitive, fair pay for all roles at Komodo Health, we’re proud to offer robust and inclusive benefits to all Dragons at Komodo Health. We offer global time off programs, extensive internal and external career development and learning opportunities, multiple affinity groups celebrating our team’s diversity, and an annual wellness and productivity stipend to support you in being your healthiest, best self.  Equal Opportunity Statement Komodo Health provides equal employment opportunities to all applicants and employees.
