I lead Recruiting for SunFire, a highly profitable, well-capitalized software company that provides transformative and proven digital solutions & services to support the rapidly growing Medicare market. Medicare plays a critical role in providing health and financial security to over 50 million seniors. As a mission-driven company, we are passionate about our commitment to improving the lives of the senior community. As the 65 and older demographic grows to ~20% of the US population, the long-term opportunities within this $700 billion+ marketplace will continue to drive significant growth for SunFire. Our quoting and enrollment technologies enable carriers, brokers and agent partners to sell the best Medicare Advantage, prescription drug and Medicare Supplement plans within a proprietary cloud-based platform. With an aggressive product roadmap ahead of us, I'm hiring big-picture thinking contributors that will further transform SunFire’s footprint within the Medicare industry.
