Our team is committed to enhancing physician and patient quality of life through Elation, a SaaS cloud-based clinical platform. Since inception, we’ve been focused on building an intuitive, reliable experience that empowers physicians to deliver better care to patients.
Elation is looking for an Engineering Manager to lead a team to design, build, and maintain products while aligning with business strategy and commercial goals.

Lead and participate in code reviews and share knowledge with the team
Ship your first AI-powered feature improvement to production
