AI-powered musculoskeletal care platform with wearable integration
Hinge Health operates a clinical-grade digital health platform combining AI care models, wearable devices, and licensed clinician access for musculoskeletal conditions. The tech stack reflects a mature, distributed system: React Native + React frontends, Node.js/NestJS/Go backends, PostgreSQL + DynamoDB storage, and Apache Kafka for event streaming, deployed across AWS with Kubernetes + Terraform infrastructure-as-code. Active adoption of OAuth 2.0, OIDC, SAML, and SCIM signals aggressive IAM expansion—likely driven by enterprise B2B2C scaling into employer benefits networks.
