🤠 Remote Epidemiologist

💼 Job Type: Full-Time
🌍 Location: Remote
💰 Salary: $81,390 annually
🕒 Flexibility: Fully remote with async hours

🌟 Our Story: From Curiosity to Innovation

Once upon a pandemic, a group of data geeks, disease detectives, and wellness warriors realized the world needed more than just reactive healthcare. It required a proactive, tech-driven, and data-inspired revolution. So we built a remote-first think tank where science meets creativity and spreadsheets tango with storytelling.

Fueled by innovation and guided by data, we’ve grown into a globally connected team of health enthusiasts, coders, policy wonks, and analytical dreamers. Our mission is simple yet ambitious: to uncover patterns that save lives and tell stories that shape global health narratives. As our journey expands, we seek a sharp, witty, and curious Remote Epidemiologist to join our digital expedition.

If you're passionate about epidemiology, obsessed with patterns, and excited about remote-first innovation, you’re exactly who we’re looking for.
