About Tempus

Tempus was founded in August 2015 by Eric Lefkofsky after his wife was diagnosed with breast cancer. The company pursued applying technology and artificial intelligence to cancer care, building a platform capable of ingesting real-time healthcare data to personalize diagnostics. The platform originated for oncology and has since expanded to neuropsychiatry, cardiology, infectious disease (through COVID), and radiology, with a mission to ensure patients are on the right drug at the right time to help them live longer, healthier lives.

Why work here?

  • We value people who aim to change the world and tackle tough problems
  • We seek builders and continuous learners with strong curiosity
  • Join a team focused on one of the most challenging problems in healthcare, addressing it head-on
