Who we are

You. Better. With Alan.

Alan's vision is to make prevention the new norm of care for all. Our mission is to 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.

We're building a vertically integrated health partner that seamlessly unites insurance and smart healthcare delivery into one system.

By connecting all aspects of care - private, public, and direct to consumer - we create the most member-centric healthcare experience. Through deep engagement, we empower everyone to overcome day-to-day health obstacles and live healthier lives.

We partner with 35K+ companies of all sizes, serving more than 950+ members, and have reached 680M+ in ARR.

Our team of 700+ people (still growing) operates across France , Spain , Belgium , and Canada .

International Expansion & New Markets

At Alan, we're on a mission to bring our innovative healthcare model to new countries and scale across Europe and beyond. We're building the foundations for rapid international expansion, creating systems and platforms that can adapt to diverse healthcare markets while maintaining the exceptional experience our members love.

Examples of what you'd work on:

Build global-first platforms designed for multi-country deployment from day one, creating reusable components and architecture that can be quickly adapted to new markets with different healthcare systems, regulations, and languages
Launch new countries by designing and shipping core systems for insurance operations, claims processing, member experiences, and provider networks that work across diverse regulatory environments
Scale payment and billing infrastructure to handle multiple currencies, tax systems, and payment methods while maintaining compliance with local financial regulations
Design country-agnostic data models that accommodate vast differences in healthcare systems, from network-based models to reimbursement systems, while keeping data consistent and accessible globally
Create configuration and localization systems that allow new countries to be onboarded in weeks, not months, flexible enough to handle local nuances while maintaining global product standards
Ship member experiences that feel local while leveraging shared global components, building mobile and web interfaces that adapt seamlessly to different languages, cultures, and healthcare expectations
Own critical technical decisions as a domain expert, defining how Alan's systems evolve to support 10+ countries while maintaining engineering velocity and system reliability

You'll be joining at a pivotal moment as we accelerate our expansion strategy, with ambitious plans to enter multiple new markets. The systems you build will directly enable Alan's growth from 4 countries to the leading pan-European health partner.

This is a rare opportunity to shape how a fast-growing healthtech company scales internationally. Your work will impact hundreds of thousands of members across multiple countries.
