About The Position

This is a seed-stage healthcare AI company on a mission to fix one of the most frustrating systems in the U.S.—medical billing and insurance. Healthcare today is complex, opaque, and often unfair, with nearly 40% of medical bills containing errors or incorrect denials. The company is building an AI-powered platform that helps individuals fight claim denials, correct billing mistakes, negotiate costs, and better understand their coverage. Founded by a former healthcare leader and backed by top-tier investors, the company has raised $17M and is well-capitalized for the next phase of growth. With a team of ~24 employees and strong early traction (currently in stealth with exceptional user satisfaction), this is a rare opportunity to join a mission-driven company at the intersection of healthcare, AI, and infrastructure , building a product with real-world impact.
