About The Position

At Legion Health, we believe everyone deserves fast, affordable, and world-class health care, and we’re developing the AI infrastructure to deliver it ourselves at world scale. Legion is building autonomous medical care (the AI doctor), starting with psychiatry. Our AI-native care-delivery platform currently automates 95% of the administrative work required for us to deliver direct patient care. We also recently became the first company ever to receive regulatory authorization to let AI prescribe psychiatric medications, allowing us to not only collapse health care’s admin costs but also its clinical labor costs—shifting this industry’s economics from humans to tokens. Our technical moat is hard to copy—we combine rich data, production AI, doctors in the loop, and end-to-end care operations to deliver measurably better care to a clinically complex patient population. This has helped us produce tens of thousands of total visits in just 2 years, all while holding ops costs flat and achieving industry-leading patient NPS and retention. While the last generation of healthcare startups made the existing system incrementally more efficient, Legion is rebuilding full-stack care delivery from first principles. Our vision? A 10X better patient experience that’s higher quality, less expensive, and more scalable than ever before. And a 10X better clinician experience that frees our providers to focus on what matters most: caring for patients. Legion Health is backed by Y Combinator, leading venture capital firms, and founders from Function Health, Modern Health, Everly Health, Trusted Health, Clipboard Health, PatientPing, Sesame Care, Faire, EasyPost, and fuboTV. Join us as we build the future of health care: faster, higher-quality, and more affordable, powered by doctors and AI working together.

Requirements

Experience owning healthcare operations, clinical workforce operations, network expansion, or a comparable multi-market operating function.
Evidence that you have personally taken a complex launch or operational program from planning through measurable results.
Strong workforce planning, analytical, and financial judgment; comfort building capacity models, operating dashboards, and clear decision memos.
Practical understanding of clinician recruiting, onboarding, licensing, credentialing, payer readiness, and the dependencies that determine when care can begin.
Ability to coordinate legal, compliance, clinical, finance, commercial, and technical partners while keeping decision rights and accountability clear.
A hands-on systems mindset: you improve the underlying process, document it, measure it, and automate where appropriate.
High ownership, honest escalation, strong follow-through, and comfort making progress with incomplete information.

Nice To Haves

Experience with psychiatry, telehealth, multi-state clinician networks, or a rapidly scaling care-delivery organization is especially useful.

Responsibilities

Build market-entry plans that connect demand, payer readiness, clinician supply, launch economics, operating capacity, and cross-functional dependencies.
Run launch readiness reviews with clear owners, milestones, evidence, risks, and decision gates; resolve critical-path blockers and escalate tradeoffs early.
Coordinate state entry and payer-entry readiness with Revenue & Network Operations and legal, compliance, and clinical partners; track required approvals without substituting for their judgment.
Forecast clinician demand and productive capacity by market, specialty, schedule, and expected patient demand; make hiring and deployment recommendations from that forecast.
Own the operating process from clinician recruiting through offer acceptance, onboarding, readiness, and productive deployment, in partnership with the recruiting and clinical teams.
Improve handoffs across licensing, credentialing, contracting, training, systems access, scheduling, and availability, so clinicians are ready when patients need them.
Create clear readiness standards and dashboards for offer-to-ready conversion, time to productive capacity, coverage gaps, and capacity utilization.
Partner with Finance and relevant operations owners on accurate clinician compensation administration and reconciliation.
Track launch performance through first visit, clean claim, and cash milestones with the teams accountable for each stage.
Document repeatable playbooks, improve workflows, and partner with Product and Engineering on automation that removes avoidable coordination work.
Build a dependable operating cadence that gives leadership a clear view of market readiness, clinician supply, blocked decisions, and the next action.
