VP of Data

9amHealth
Remote

About The Position

At 9amHealth, the VP of Data will own the entire data function, encompassing data engineering and platform, analytics and BI, and data science/ML/AI. This role is crucial as data directly influences member outcomes, clinical decision-making, and operational efficiency in managing chronic conditions like diabetes, hypertension, cholesterol, and weight management. The data function is deeply integrated, powering the member app, EMR, operational tooling, and AI-assisted workflows. Decisions made by the VP of Data will significantly shape member experiences and clinician actions. This is a strategic leadership hire for a company scaling its member base, expanding its clinical model, and investing heavily in AI-assisted care. The ideal candidate will set the vision for the data organization, build and grow the team, and partner with the executive team to create a data, analytics, and ML roadmap. The role requires autonomy, a high standard of data craft and rigor, and the ability to evolve the organization through scaling, especially with the increasing importance of AI-assisted workflows and intelligent care experiences. This is not a hands-on execution or narrow analytics role; it demands strategic thinking about the member journey, clinical operations, business economics, and the operational implications of data and ML decisions, leading a multi-disciplinary team.

Requirements

  • Owned a full data function end-to-end at scale.
  • Experience leading data organizations through meaningful scale (early growth through multi-team).
  • Experience building and maturing data platforms (ingestion, warehousing, modeling, governance) without over-engineering.
  • Experience shipping ML or applied AI into a real product.
  • Experience operating in ambiguity and building clarity (definitions, ownership, metric trees, source of truth).
  • Ability to move quickly and independently and push teams to do the same.
  • Comfort making decisions with imperfect data.
  • Strong product and business instincts in addition to technical depth.
  • Understanding of experimentation, causal inference, and the limits of A/B testing in healthcare contexts.
  • Experience working with PHI/HIPAA and understanding the compliance, privacy, and security implications of data work in healthcare.
  • Ability to defend decisions clearly to the executive team, the board, and the broader organization.
  • Experience hiring, coaching, and leveling up data engineers, analytics engineers, analysts, data scientists, and ML engineers.
  • Genuinely fluent with modern AI-assisted tooling (e.g., Cursor, Claude, v0, Lovable).
  • Hands-on opinions about where LLMs and agents accelerate data and analytics work, and where they are risky in a clinical setting.
  • Ability to set the standard for how the broader data and engineering org adopts AI responsibly.
  • Technical conversancy to make credible architecture and platform decisions.
  • Adaptability, systems thinking, and judgment.
  • Experience leading a distributed team and comfortable building rituals and writing artifacts that keep a remote, multi-time-zone org aligned.
