If there’s anything the pandemic has taught us, it’s the importance of hospital resources.
Unfortunately, many hospitals have outdated infrastructure for modern-day operations. This can lead to problems with equipment, safety, security and more.
That’s where Cox Prosight comes in.
Prosight is a real-time location system that helps hospitals monitor assets, environments and people across a facility. From tracking the status of hospital equipment to helping patients navigate through a facility to supporting staff safety, Prosight helps streamline healthcare operations.
Prosight, a Cox Communications innovation, is a full stack solution including software, hardware and services from a single provider. It’s designed to help hospitals improve operational efficiency, staff safety, clinical workflows and patient engagement.
Jai Balasubramanian is Director of Strategy and Product Management at Cox Communications and is a leader in innovating smart hospital solutions. Jai shared some insight about the technology behind Prosight and why this product is important.
Certainly. My team’s mission is to unleash the true potential of a connected hospital by enabling complete asset tracking and monitoring solutions, giving hospitals the data and tools they need to improve processes, realize operational efficiencies and deliver better experiences to staff and patients. This new IoT business line venture was established in 2021.
Every role in our team is pretty hands-on and directly contributes to the development of cutting-edge cloud- connected IoT applications and offerings with the latest tools. Our teams have a degree of collaboration among highly talented, cross-functional and geographically dispersed locations.
We are looking for talented and creative problem solvers who would like to be involved in the complete software development life cycle, seeing your hard work transform into a finished product in an agile environment. You’d be working with a dynamic team of professional intrapreneurs who are passionate about solving customer needs using disruptive technologies.
It’s safe to say that most people don’t find car shopping to be a pleasant experience.
From spending hours in a dealership to fretting about payment terms to completing piles of paperwork, most of us have experienced the nail-biting process that leads to finally being able to get behind the wheel of a new ride.
On the other side of the desk, dealers run into plenty of frustrations as well, trying to ensure a great experience for shoppers and move inventory off their lots, while still staying profitable.
Imagine being able to transform this process forever, impacting both how dealerships operate and how people find their dream cars. Tech employees at Cox Automotive have that opportunity by working on products like Esntial Commerce, an artificial intelligence retail technology that helps provide shoppers with an automated, 100% online financing process.
Esntial helps optimize the sales process, estimating payment in such a way that is appealing to both shopper and seller. It offers payment personalization based on the shopper’s risk profile, selected vehicle and preferred deal structure using an AI/machine learning algorithm. It offers actual financing and the ability to immediately transact online, meaning that customers can move forward confidently knowing that their financing has been approved.
Pretty cool, right? We wanted to know more about Esntial and what opportunities are available in this space, so we sat down with Isaac Hogue, Associate Vice President of Software Engineering at Cox Automotive, to get the inside scoop.
Sure. First of all, Esntial is a web-based platform that’s fully AWS on a serverless stack, so it’s the best of the best in terms of what an engineer would want to be working on. It’s also a really meaningful product in the marketplace, transforming how dealerships operate with a consumer-centric focus. It’s a win-win that hasn’t historically existed in the industry.
We’re using machine learning to assess the marketplace and find opportunities to present to consumers and dealers when a car is being transacted. This product sits squarely in the machine learning space so if you’re interested in data science and modeling out different algorithms for machine learning, you’ll love what we’re doing here.
We have about 250 people working on this right now, and 26 scrum teams. We’ve got a very diverse group of tech professionals, with people from all over the world.
We’re primarily looking for web developers, web engineers, user experience experts, product owners, data engineers and DevOps engineers.
It’s out in the market with a progressive release. The initial launch was last July and we’re ramping up to different clients this year. We’re primarily focused on the used car market, but in the future we’ll be turning our attention to new and certified pre-owned vehicles as well. We’re also working on building self-healing capabilities, asking ourselves how we can build reliability and resiliency into the product itself.
I love that we’re working on something that makes a difference; not things that are just going to find their way onto a shelf somewhere. This is a place where you get to redefine the entire automotive industry.
We’re changing out our tools to provide a better experience for you. Between June 16-22, we will not have any open jobs published on our careers website, but please join our talent community and come back after June 22 to search and apply. Thank you!
