Buoy Software is hiringSenior Data Engineer
About Buoy Software
At Buoy, we are reimagining the blood-product donation and collection experience in an industry that has been largely untouched by advances in technology for decades. It is one of the few remaining verticals that have yet to see the transformative power of modern technology and great design. The result is creating huge impact in three distinct areas: making blood product-derived biotherapies more accessible to patients battling life-threatening conditions, creating employment opportunities and economic support in communities that have limited access to resources and creating real business value by increasing the supply of blood-products in a market with compounding demand.
We have been working alongside Join Parachute (www.joinparachute.com/), our sister company, in the opening of small market donation centers across the country that will create local donation center careers, opportunities to donate blood products, and provide financial compensation for those donations that will have a positive economic impact in those communities. We’ll continue to expand our reach to support other companies who could benefit from the products that Buoy has created and developed.
Why work here?
Because our business focuses on the collection and sale of blood-product in a highly regulated industry, we are uniquely positioned and protected from other competitors or technologies trying to disrupt what we’ve built. Simply put, we have huge opportunity for growth and the only challenge that stands in our way from achieving our goals is our own ability to execute on our strategy. To date, we have been able to successfully deliver and grow and have ambitious plans for our future. If this resonates with you, we hope that you consider joining our team and working towards our mission of unlocking more blood-product supply.
