Apollo Agriculture (YC F1) is bringing modern farming to the world's poorest farmers. Millions of farmers globally don't have access to the basic resources the rest of the world depends on for food production: good seed and fertilizer. We sell these on credit, use ML to figure out who we can lend to profitably, and are growing rapidly (two countries and growing).
We are a small, motivated team with SV roots and an ownership culture. Come help us make a real difference in the world!
Hiring for several roles:
- Software Engineer: Our core engineering team supports a wide range of tools and processes. Our primary stack is Scala 2 w/ cats, backed by psql. If you are an experienced and practical problem solver, we'd love to meet you.
- Machine Learning Engineer: We build and run several different models to determine credit eligibility, detect fraud, etc. Our ml engineers are hands-on and provide production-ready models for other teams to consume.
... due to our size and focus, we look for candidates who are experienced and can be autonomous -- at least at the "senior" level. Visa sponsorship is possible!
Drop me a line at elijahsmith@apolloagriculture.com if you're interested; I'm happy to chat.
Our mission: We develop software that helps people get the right medical care, at the right time, at the right price.
Need a treatment? We are looking to close the gap from having to wait weeks for approval so that you and your family can get access to healthcare sooner.
More roles are coming soon!
Moreover, our healthcare is systemically unequal. People of color, lower income, and LGBTQ+ have demonstrably worse healthcare outcomes, a disparity grimly highlighted by the pandemic we’re living through now where people of color are three-times more likely to die from COVID-19.
How can this be, and how can we change it?
Nuna is tackling one of the most hardest problems in healthcare underlying the negative outcomes and disparities we see: how healthcare gets paid.
Today, hospitals only get paid when they do more-- more visits, more tests, more meds, more surgeries. Hopefully this helps patients get better, but regardless, the system gets paid. In fact, doing more is the only way to stay afloat.
But -- is this really the right set of incentives? Shouldn’t everyone get rewarded not just by doing more, but by when patients actually get better? Shouldn’t everyone have access to affordable, high quality care, and shouldn’t hospitals be rewarded when they deliver this care? And shouldn’t insurance companies get rewarded when they help ALL their patients get better?
Absolutely, yes. This concept is called Value-Based Care. In fact, healthcare as a whole has been trying to move in this direction for years, but making it all reality is deeply complex -- it is after all our healthcare. Nuna’s technology platform, our software apps, our vision, and our exceptionally talented team are collectively accelerating the healthcare system’s ability to make value-based care available to everyone.
In 2022, Nuna will power over $70B of healthcare payments for over 6.5M patients. We also leverage our data science and platform to direct patients to the best, culturally-matched, and accessible care providers for them. Additionally, we make it transparent and easy for both hospitals and insurers to see how they are performing in value-based care by spotlighting the patients or areas where they need to pay extra attention so that they can provide good care to all their patients and get rewarded.
Nuna is unique - we have brought together an exceptional team of over 200 people. We are the industry’s best in healthcare data, analytics, engineering, clinicians, and value based healthcare experts. We have joined forces to create a more equitable health system for everyone.
Our dreams and ambitions to change healthcare as we know it are big. If yours are too, we want to work with you.

Narrative has been building a data collaboration platform designed for simplicity and ease of use since being founded in 2016.
Our primary strength is functioning as a data marketplace where we differentiate ourselves by automatically standardizing data across suppliers, making data available via powerful query interfaces (both intuitive UIs and an SQL dialect) instead of via one-size-fits-all pre-packaged datasets, and giving data providers the ability to define row-level access and pricing policies. The same building blocks that power the marketplace enable other data collaboration use cases, like clean room data analysis and the automatic segmentation and delivery of data to other platforms. We're also building towards a future where users can leverage our collaboration tools without needing to push their data to us, instead our query engine will be embeddable where their data is already at rest.
We are a small, remote-first team looking for great developers who want to jump in and take major systems and user-facing features from design to launch. While the company's headquarters are in NYC, the development team currently includes engineers working from the US (California and New York), Canada (Alberta, British Columbia, and Québec), and Poland.
In brief, the technologies we use are:
- Scala, Spark, Apache Iceberg, and Apache Calcite in the backend. We love functional programming and make use of libraries like Cats, Cats-Effect, and FS2, but we keep a pragmatic stance on purity given our exposure to the Spark ecosystem.
- Our services are deployed on AWS and provisioned using Terraform. We leverage the usual suspects: Fargate, EMR, RDS, Lambda, etc. and we're starting to lean into Kubernetes. Being a small team, we think twice before rolling out custom infrastructure that we'll need to monitor and maintain.
- On the frontend, we use Typescript, VueJS, PrimeVue, Nuxt, and Vite.
