Who We Are

At Cherry, we're on a mission to make healthcare more accessible and we think the path there runs through smarter, simpler financing.

We build payment & financing tools that help patients say yes to the care they need, without having to choose between their health and their finances. From dentistry to aesthetics to vision to veterinary and beyond, we partner with healthcare providers to offer flexible payment plans right at the point of care, making it easier for the patients they serve to actually get treated.

πŸ’‘ The problem we're solving is real. We sit right at the intersection of healthcare and financial access β€” two industries where the stakes are high and the opportunity to do meaningful work is everywhere.

πŸš€ We move fast and build well. We're a lean, high-performing team that takes pride in the quality of what we ship. If you thrive in environments where your work has direct impact and you can see the results of what you build, you'll feel at home here.


What We’re Building

Cherry's platform makes it easy for healthcare providers to offer patients a seamless financing experience from application to approval to repayment.

πŸ₯ For patients, it means getting access to care they might otherwise put off or skip entirely.

🀝 For providers, it means fewer barriers between them and the people they're trying to help.

Our product lives directly inside the provider's workflow, which means the experience has to be fast, intuitive, and reliable. We're constantly raising the bar β€” whether that's expanding into new specialties, deepening integrations, or building the infrastructure that lets our provider partners grow.

At the core of everything we do is a simple belief: people shouldn't have to delay or forgo care because of cost.

Our Values

Our values are at the heart of everything we do. They shape how we work, how we make decisions, and what we strive for, and they're a big part of what makes Cherry a company people are genuinely excited to be a part of.

πŸ₯Β Provider Obsessed: Everything we do starts with our providers. We're relentlessly focused on delivering an exceptional product and experience for the practices we serve.

πŸ™‹ Be an Owner Every full-time Cherry employee receives equity (stock options) because we believe the incredible people building this company should have a real stake in it. You'll have real autonomy and ownership over your work and impact. We trust our people!

πŸ† Celebrate Excellence We believe great work deserves to be recognized and we make sure it is. Outstanding performance is celebrated and rewarded here, because the people behind it are what make Cherry great.

πŸ” Seek Truth Through Facts We make decisions with data, not gut feelings or politics. We invest in transparency and easy access to information so everyone can do their best thinking.


How We Set Goals

We're intentional about how we work and what we work toward. Our goal-setting framework is designed to keep our team aligned, focused, and moving in the same direction, in addition to making sure great performance gets rewarded.

****🎯 OKRs (Objectives & Key Results) OKRs are our big bets for the quarter. An objective sets the direction; key results are the measurable outcomes that tell us we got there. If the key results are hit, the objective is met.

πŸ“ˆΒ Core Operating Results These are the key numbers that measure the health of each part of the business. Nearly everyone at Cherry is connected to at least one, by maintaining it, improving it, or driving a step-change through an OKR.

🀝 Projects & Promises Projects are the focused bodies of work that move OKRs forward. Promises are the weekly commitments that keep projects on track. Together, they help us stay load-balanced and avoid the peaks and valleys that slow teams down.

πŸ’° Performance that pays off Our bonus structure is tied directly to individual OKR performance each quarter, and it's designed to be both achievable and over-achievable. Bonuses are evaluated and paid out quarterly, so you're not waiting a year to see your hard work recognized. We want to reward you!
