Working at
Liva Healthcare

Liva is a platform and app for people living with chronic diseases such as obesity, kohl, diabetes and cardiovascular disease.The Liva team has previously created NetDoktor and other successful startups in the health sector, and now they’re eager to disrupt the market and offer more lifestyle-related treatment than regular healthcare does, moving away from purely medical treatment traditions. This happens through advanced digital personal guidance, lifestyle and disease tracking, user forum etc. We’re a small, dedicated team of skilled individuals, and we’re very flexible. Since knowledge sharing is the easiest when working in one room, we’ve agreed to work as much as possible from the office. If we can’t hire the best of the best people, we often prefer outsourcing our tasks.We place the social element at the heart of Liva, with a blast of a Christmas lunch (this year taking place at the Tivoli amusement park) and regular team dinners too. We set quarterly goals, and upon fulfilling them we celebrate by traveling together, going for luxury dining or the like. A startup like Liva is very uncomplicated and all individuals get a lot of decision making power.The need for our platform is here, this is clear since many customers have signed up before our actual product has launched - some have even told us they’ve been waiting for a product like this for 10 years.
