You. Better. With Alan.
Alan is building a vertically integrated health partner that unites insurance and smart healthcare delivery into one seamless system. Our vision is to make prevention the new norm of care for all.
Our mission: Help people live in good health to 100 while helping employers feel proud, turning health benefits from a cost centre into their most valuable investment.
By connecting all aspects of care (private, public, and direct to consumer) we create the most member-centric healthcare experience, reducing claims costs while generating new monetization opportunities.
We partner with tens of thousands of companies across France 🇫🇷, Spain 🇪🇸, Belgium 🇧🇪, and Canada 🇨🇦, serving over a million members.
How we work: our Leadership Principles
Mission is the Boss — We think long-term and are methodical optimists who take risks, seeking our mission's success above all else.
Distributed Ownership — Accountable enlightened despots: everyone owns their decisions and results.
Radical Transparency — All information is accessible and written-first, so everyone can make the best decisions asynchronously.
Always Growing — Direct, positive, and caring feedback, combined with self-growth ownership.
🚀 What you'll build and who you'll work with
You would join the team called “Claims Management”, in charge of refunding €350M+ of healthcare expenses every year to 1M+ members across France, Belgium, Spain, and Canada.
Our mission is to refund each member as fast as we can and the right amount, while being cost-effective for Alan.
We have internalized all the critical parts to handle health claims, which makes this product division a technical, deep, and exciting place to work.
Claims Management contains several product crews, notably:
Document processing: 2M documents received every year. We automatically parse a good portion of them with LLMs but we want to go further.
Claims experience: Building the most memorable and straightforward experience for our members to understand their guarantees and get a claim refunded. Across 4 different countries, mobile and desktop.
Payments: Building a payment infra & source ingestion system to make sure our members get refunded super fast or better, they don’t need to advance the money.
Fraud fighting: 4M€ saved in 2024 with an internal stack combining Machine learning scoring, anomaly detections, and manual investigations
