Senior Embedded Systems Engineer

About Inspiren 

Inspiren was created to help operators forge thriving senior living communities.

We use a simple, streamlined platform that protects resident privacy, to optimize community operations at every step. Our technology puts residents first, capturing insights on everything from revenue leakage to staff utilization, while providing an extra layer of oversight, as an extension of your care team.

We know that balancing operations takes time and effort, not to mention careful coordination of many parts – that’s why we offer seamless solutions to guide stronger care decisions. Because while you can’t control any specific event, we believe that data can power communities to live and work better.

Keeping your residents healthy and your staff productive is easy with Inspiren.

Smarter care, on every wall. One room at a time. 

What You'll Do:

• Lead Embedded Systems Projects: Oversee the end-to-end development of embedded software and firmware for new devices, from conceptualization to production.
