Camber builds software to improve the quality and accessibility of healthcare. We streamline and replace manual work so clinicians can focus on what they do best: providing great care. For more details on our thesis, check out our write-up: What is Camber?
We’ve raised $50M in funding from phenomenal supporters at a16z, Craft Ventures, YCombinator, Manresa, and many others who are committed to improving the accessibility of care. For more information, take a look at: Announcing Camber
Our mission to change behavioral health starts with us and how we operate. We don’t want to just change behavioral health, we want to change the way startups operate. Here are a few tactical examples:
1) Improving accessibility and quality of healthcare is something we live and breathe. Everyone on Camber’s team cares deeply about helping clinicians and patients.
2) We have to have a sense of humor. Healthcare is so broken, it's depressing if you don't laugh with us.
At Camber, we’re building systems that actually work for clinicians—because healthcare deserves better software. As a Senior Data Engineer, you’ll be hands-on with the backbone of that system: the infrastructure and pipelines that keep everything flowing smoothly, scalably, and reliably.
This role isn’t just about writing great code (though that’s part of it). It’s about helping us make smart decisions as we scale, both technically and strategically. You’ll partner closely with other engineers, analysts, and product teams to build data systems we can trust, evolve, and understand. You’ll also be a mentor and be a thought partner as we grow the team.
Design and build a platform that is reliable, observable, and scalable.
Drive the strategy behind our data architecture and tooling.
Collaborate across the company with product, reporting, and platform teams to deliver the right data at the right time.
Level up the organization by mentoring other engineers, establishing best practices, and contributing to a high-trust culture.
Deliver incremental improvements, especially when things feel ambiguous or messy
Stay adaptable and flexible. We’re a startup, and that means things change fast!

Building an inclusive culture is one of our core tenets as a company. We’re very aware of structural inequalities that exist, and recognize that underrepresented minorities are less likely to apply for a role if they don’t think they meet all of the requirements. If that’s you and you’re reading this, we’d like to encourage you to apply regardless — we’d love to get to know you and see if there’s a place for you here!
In addition, we take security seriously, and all of our employees contribute to uphold security requirements and maintain compliance with HIPAA security regulations.
Camber helps healthcare providers manage billing more efficiently by using claims data to speed payments, reduce denials, and improve first-pass payment success, with a focus on multi-state ABA providers. The platform analyzes large volumes of claims data to identify denial reasons and opportunities to streamline submissions, guiding billing teams to cleaner claims and faster reimbursements. It differentiates itself by specializing in ABA billing and using a data-first approach to reduce denials across multiple states, unlike generic billing tools. The goal is to increase provider revenue, lower administrative burden, and allow clinicians to spend more time on patient care while enabling growth across markets.
