About Upside

NELP, or Nursing Excellence Leadership Platform, is described as the only unified platform for ANCC designations, professional governance, clinical ladders, and Evidence Based Practice, positioning itself as building the system of record for nursing excellence. It claims to improve patient outcomes and nurse retention across the country’s largest health systems. The company envisions one platform where every council decision, clinical ladder submission, EBP project, and designation narrative is captured, connected, and tied to measurable outcomes. The founder and CEO are described as experienced, with a track record of selling two previous companies, and the team is said to move fast, build with care, and have fun while developing the product. NELP is remote-friendly with United States–based work options (with a preference for San Francisco), and is hiring full-time roles in engineering/product teams for multi-tenant, workflow-heavy backend design and enterprise integration; applications can be submitted via [email protected].
