Nectar is hiringUX/UI Designer

 

About Nectar

We are on a mission to provide all pets with the quality health care they need from veterinarians and their caretakers. We aim to do this by modernizing the veterinary tech stack throughout a pet patient’s lifecycle from patient identification to preventive care, medical care, and monitoring & lifestyle. Existing vet tools are frustratingly hard to use, lack key features, and look like they are from the 90's. Our vision for a next-generation cloud platform includes a comprehensive medical record management system with delightful client communication tools. Predictive analytics will unlock clinical efficiencies, equip veterinarians with relevant medical data, and inform pet owners of proactive, tailored insights into their pets’ health. 

We just launched our state-of-the-art MVP with veterinary clinic customers who are already raving about our product. We are looking for a product UX/UI designer to take our features to the next level and dream up innovative, differentiated solutions for our exciting product roadmap in 2023.
