About the role
Hi, we’re Gravie, and we are building the health plan of the future. For the past few decades, the health insurance industry has evolved to serve the needs of employers, insurance companies, brokers, and (sometimes) doctors and hospitals. The needs of the consumer, however, have largely been left out of the equation. We’re changing that. We are rebuilding the entire health insurance stack, with the consumer as the central focus. Our goal is to create a health plan that people can love. A Little More About Us

Our company was founded and is still led by industry veterans who have started and grown several market-leading companies in the space.· We are quickly becoming one of the fastest growing health benefits companies in the country.
