A 10% Veteran Workforce

An Informed Hiring Team

We’re designing a hiring process that supports Veterans at every step.

We’re training everyone involved in the hiring process—from members of our Human Resources and People Operations team to hiring managers—to have a strong understanding of where Veterans are coming from when they apply to Coforma, as well as the unique value their experiences add to our team.

Applicants will engage with a team that understands how military experience translates to job roles, the types of accommodations we offer that can make it easier for Veterans to work at Coforma, and personalized approaches to interviews.

Serving Veterans in Our Work

A Human-Centered Approach

The heart of Coforma’s work is human-centered design, research, and product development, meaning we involve real users in the research and design process for every project we undertake.

Veterans, their families, their caregivers, transitioning service members, and VA service providers deserve thoughtful products and experiences that treat them with respect, integrity, and care.

As we serve our Veteran focus area, we insist on engaging Veteran community members in the development of products and services that affect them.

Building Better Services

Veterans are and will always be a major focus area for Coforma. We hold SDVOSB certification and 8(a) certifications—both of which give us access to key set-asides for minority- and Veteran-owned small businesses. These have been instrumental in creating opportunities for us to center solutions around the diverse needs of Veterans and deliver modernized care, benefits, and solutions.

We’re currently working on a multi-year, multifaceted contract with the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) to improve the standard of healthcare for Veterans based on their input and lived experiences. Our team members, partners, and product users are all integrated in our values-centered approach to making things that matter.
