Job Description
Founded in 2020 and based in Silicon Valley, Empo Health is a seed-funded, VC-backed, and NSF-supported startup developing revolutionary in-home health monitoring products. We’re looking for an experienced, organized, and proactive Executive Assistant + Office Manager to help keep our team and space operating efficiently.
Empo Health’s first product, the Empo Footprint, is an in-home foot-scanning scale that helps doctors and patients monitor for early signs of diabetic foot ulcers, and the team is hard at work preparing the world-class device and associated Empo Remote Health Link service for launch in the next few months.
