Software Product Manager – Post-Acute

Greenwood Village, CO

Description

 In 2023, three of the leading companies in senior living software — Enquire, Glennis, and Sherpa — united to form Aline.

Leveraging the unique strengths and areas of expertise of each company, Aline’s sole purpose is to help guide senior living onto an accelerative path — one that elevates the operator and resident experience while driving higher returns for owners and investors.

We know efficiency is among the highest priorities for operators everywhere right now. And we’re dedicated to helping senior living communities make the absolute best of the resources available to them.

That means enabling:

• Clarity instead of guesswork.
• Speed instead of however-long-it-takes.
• Connection instead of piecemeal solutions.

Senior living management can be complex and challenging, which is why we’ve made it our mission to simplify it.

Our team embraces a supportive and innovative culture to continuously deliver the most user-friendly experience for our clients and provide a full hands-on approach to meet client needs and expectations.
