Paradigm Health is rebuilding the clinical research ecosystem by enabling equitable access to trials for all patients. Our platform enhances trial efficiency and reduces the barriers to participation for healthcare providers. Incubated by ARCH Venture Partners and backed by leading healthcare and life sciences investors, Paradigm’s seamless infrastructure implemented at healthcare provider organizations, will bring potentially life-saving therapies to patients faster.

Our team hails from a broad range of disciplines and is committed to the company’s mission to create equitable access to clinical trials for any patient, anywhere. Join us, and bring your expertise, passion, creativity, and drive as we work together to realize this mission.

The Data Engineering team is building Paradigm’s platform for clinical care information, ingesting data from multiple sources, including Electronic Health Records, lab providers, Health Information Exchanges, and more. As Paradigm’s data needs evolve with an expanding population, research, and health system footprint, Data Engineering will scale its architecture to support downstream application, analytics and AI use cases.
