Job Description

The Company

Think Research is changing the way healthcare is delivered - we are a global SaaS company that delivers the latest clinical knowledge to the point-of-care in hospitals, seniors care homes and in the community. The body of global medical research grows exponentially every day. It's impossible for doctors to keep all of the latest best-practices in their heads so we make software that brings it to their fingertips, organizing medical knowledge and data to improve patient care. We're a fast-growing publicly traded company (in 2800 healthcare facilities and counting) and we're making a global impact with a footprint in seven countries. If you are looking to improve patient care and are passionate about technology -- look no further.
