Senior React Native Engineer

Transforming Suicide Care Through Science and Lived Experience.
Evidence-Based Practice Institute (EBPI) (doing business as Jaspr Health) is on a mission to reduce death by suicide. We are a Seattle-based company founded and advised by the world’s experts in mental health and behavioral psychology. Our technology helps to deliver evidence-based suicide prevention at scale. Combining suicide science, digital technology, and the wisdom of people with lived experience, our core tablet-based product called Jaspr compassionately delivers acute suicide care. Jaspr helps lessen the suicide crisis, strengthens suicide coping, and reduces stigma while instilling hope and connection.    

Why is our work important? Simply put, hospital emergency departments are the front line to prevent suicide, yet few are equipped for the increasing patient load — 14.5 million behavioral health emergencies per year, growing 12% annually. And people in suicide crisis face lengths of stay four times longer than other emergencies.    

Jaspr transforms hours of waiting into an opportunity for evidence-based interventions, powerful videos of individuals with lived experience to instill hope, a library of comfort and skills exercises, and EHR-integrated assessment to inform disposition decisions. Our solution targets improved patient outcomes, satisfaction, and throughput ROI.
