👋 Who are we?
Nordhealth’s mission is to build software that improves the daily lives of healthcare professionals.

We understand that talent comes from everywhere and anywhere. The greater our diversity, the better the products we deliver. That’s why we are a remote-first company, headquartered in Helsinki, Finland, with all ~400 employees working either remotely or from collaboration hubs.
