Cadence
$1B health-tech unicorn delivering remote patient monitoring and virtual care for chronic conditions to major US health systems.
What is Cadence?
Cadence is a New York City-based health technology company founded in 2020 by Chris Altchek (CEO, previously co-founder of Mic) and Kareem Zaki (also a Partner at Thrive Capital). The company partners with America's largest health systems — Lifepoint Health, LSU Health, Memorial Hermann, and others — to deliver remote patient monitoring (RPM) and virtual care for patients with chronic conditions like hypertension, type-2 diabetes, congestive heart failure, and COPD. The Care in Sync™ platform combines connected devices (blood pressure cuffs, glucose monitors, weight scales) with a US-based team of clinical staff who track patient data daily and intervene when readings drift. Cadence raised $141M total across a $41M Series A (2021) and a $100M Series B (December 2021) led by Coatue Management, hitting a **$1B valuation** alongside investors General Catalyst, Thrive Capital, Adam Boehler, Chelsea Clinton's Metrodora Ventures, and Martin Ventures. The company employs ~418 people and serves tens of thousands of patients across multiple states, with revenue at ~$58M.
Mission & values
Help health systems deliver world-class care outside the hospital — bringing precise, personal, daily monitoring to every patient with a chronic condition.
Qualifications
Cadence hires across clinical operations (Registered Nurses, Medical Assistants, Care Coordinators — most US-state-remote with state-specific licensure requirements), software engineering (frontend, backend, mobile, data, ML, platform — primarily US-remote), product, design, sales, customer success, partnerships, operations, finance, legal, and people. **Most non-clinical roles are fully US-remote**; clinical roles are remote-eligible but require an active license in specific states (varies by patient population coverage). Cadence has a New York HQ but the majority of the team is distributed across the US. Apply via cadence.care/careers.
