We partner with companies using robotics and AI to lower the cost of diagnostics, integrate their devices into our tech platform, and sell this bundle to doctors with financing.
Our devices cost a fraction of what typical devices cost and doctors pay only 10-20% upfront with financing partners covering 80-90% via loans.
Tests are completed in the doctor’s office with results available in less than 10 minutes.
Our software links diagnostic devices with an electronic medical record (EMR) system that records all patient data. It also sends customized health tips and reminders to patients based on their condition.
Optimal treatment guided by evidence
Results in 10 minutes vs. 1-2 days
Broader test range using FDA/CE-approved devices previously not available
Cost less than traditional labs
Do not spend time and money visiting far away labs
Patient records are stored for higher quality follow-up visits

Our diagnostics target the conditions that cause 80% of patient visits to primary care clinics.

About IlaraIlara was founded to bring diagnostic support and essential tests to patients and providers who currently are unable to access these basic life-saving tools. We partner with companies that are disrupting the diagnostic device landscape, integrate their devices into our tech platform, and offer this diagnostic package plus smart financing to health facilities in peri-urban areas across Africa. As a result, our facilities are now able to offer their patients essential tests through our affordable, tech-enabled, point of care (POC) diagnostic suite. The suite of software services we are building as an overlay to the existing hardware-based platform will enable our facilities to reach a wider number of patients and drive patient engagement through what we call our closed loop patient management system. This system includes patient and provider portals, automated care programs based diagnostic device results, and a remote care platform for clinics.You’ll be joining a fast-paced startup environment and have an opportunity to make a large impact on Ilara’s product development at an early stage. The work you do will have an impact on bringing better healthcare services to communities in peri-urban and rural areas of Kenya. We’re all super passionate about the work we do, and are looking for people with a drive to make real change in the world! What will you be working on?We’re looking for a well-rounded senior software engineer to work on all of the components of our stack - we have tons of work to do on our React front end, Kotlin/Spring healthcare modules, Node.js messaging platform. We’re early stage, and flexible, so our approach is to have you work on what makes you the most excited! You’ll be joining a small development team and be responsible for shipping industry leading products and services, assisting with application architecture design, and eventually managing a team of junior and mid-level engineers. You’ll be working on software that has a real impact on the health outcomes of the people we serve, and play an instrumental role in helping Ilara achieve its goal of improving patient care across East Africa
