Job Description

At Jukebox Health, our mission is to empower everyone to live safer, healthier, more independent lives at home. We partner with health plans to make homes safer and more accessible for older adults and high-needs populations.

We achieve this by combining technology with networks of clinicians, suppliers, and installers to deliver personalized home modifications and environmental supports nationwide.

We’re a tech-first team so comfort working with new systems and tools will be an advantage. Also a huge plus if home modification work is part of your experience.

We’re recruiting now as we know it takes time to get credentialed with the plans we partner with so hope you’re equally excited to get ahead of things and get introduced to Jukebox!
