Parachute Health is transforming post-acute care as the leading digital ordering platform for medical equipment and supplies. We connect major health systems, health plans, and suppliers to help patients get the life-saving products they need at home. Since launching, we've connected 300,000+ clinicians and 3,000+ supplier locations across all 50 states and helped 15M+ patients. What started as a DME ePrescribing tool has become the order management platform of choice for home medical equipment.
Join our team and make a difference in patient care.
Parachute Health is building the most complete and accurate catalog of home medical equipment and supplies in the industry, and that catalog is at the heart of our entire platform. Over the last few months, a consultant improved our in-house design standards, style guide, review practices, and an early set of universal merchandising attributes. We are now hiring someone in-house to take that work over and grow it for the long term.
As our Catalog Taxonomist, you will be the expert on our taxonomy, information architecture, and catalog data model. You will serve as the catalog administrator, set and enforce catalog standards, and own catalog functionality enhancements from requirements definition and justification all the way through operational implementation. Reporting to the SVP of Merchandising Operations, you will partner closely with Operations, Product, Design, and Engineering, to make sure the catalog stays accurate, scalable, and easy to work in as we expand into new categories.
A large part of this job is working shoulder to shoulder with engineers and a product manager. You will sit with the Cat Crew R&D team, translate merchandising problems into requirements they can build against, and translate technical constraints back into business impact for the rest of the organization. Just as important, you will be the person who notices when the platform is quietly costing the team time or accuracy, names that gap clearly, sizes it, and advocates for fixing it.
The groundwork is fairly new, so you will have a solid base to start from and real room to decide where it goes next. You get to grow the skills of an already highly-motivated Merchandising team and make the group even stronger. You will also influence R&D strategy as we build and enhance our catalog software capabilities, and partner with our clinical division as we launch new categories together.
