Role
Who you are
- Low ego + strong ownership mindset; willing to roll up your sleeves and take initiative
- Experience operating in a high-ownership, high-performance environment (e.g., hedge fund, top tier banking firm, or high-growth startup) with a clear track record of exceptional results
- Demonstrated high intelligence and structured thinking, with a proven track record of solving complex problems and create clarity from ambiguity
- Strong operational rigor - you instinctively build systems, metrics, dashboards, and accountability frameworks
- Strong communication skills, executive presence and resilience
What the job involves
- We’re looking for a highly driven, high-IQ operator to partner directly with our CBO, who oversees our Mid-Market business. You will serve as the trusted right hand to the CBO, operating with full authority to drive execution across this segment—the fastest-growing in the company, serving 1,000+ private clinics nationwide
- You’ll bring structure to ambiguity, drive accountability across the business, and help us scale with focus and discipline. The right candidate has operated in high-ownership environments, such as a hedge fund, top tier banking firm, or early-stage startup and thrives in intensity, pace, and accountability
- Proactively plan for the company’s next 10x phase of growth by identifying, designing, and implementing scalable systems, processes, and infrastructure required to support it
- Act as a strategic right hand to the CBO and mid-market business, translating vision into clear priorities, execution plans, and measurable outcomes
- Create and drive operating structure across the company: OKRs, KPIs, dashboards, meeting cadences, and accountability systems
- Identify bottlenecks, inefficiencies, execution gaps and solve them decisively
- Build and refine performance metrics that tie day-to-day execution to company goals
- Serve as a force multiplier for leadership, increasing clarity, focus, and velocity across the organization
Our take
Today, healthcare providers are tackling the growing challenge of too much paperwork and too little time for patients. Many existing electronic health record (EHR) systems only add to the problem - digital, yes, but often too clunky, time-consuming, and disconnected from the tools doctors actually need. Athelas is tackling this by reimagining how healthcare software works, helping providers spend less time lcicking and more time caring for people.
Athelas offers a full suite of tools that combine AI-powered automation, remote patient monitoring (RPM), and integrated EHR and billing systems. And its newest platform, Athelas AIR, is a next-generation EHR designed to unify clinical and administrative workflows in one intelligent system. By embedding revenue cycle management (RCM) and ambient AI documentation directly into the platform, Athelas AIR streamlines everything from charting to billing. And the goal is simple, to reduce administrative burden, improve margins, and ultimately, give healthcare teams a smoother, smarter way to work.
The company has made significant strides in recent years. After reaching unicorn status in 2022 and merging with Commure in 2023, Athelas is now valued at around $6B and continues to expand its platform. Alongside growing adoption of Athelas AIR, the company has recently secured FDA clearance for its Athelas Home device - an AI-powered diagnostic tool that delivers lab-grade blood test results from a fingerstick in minutes. This allows care teams to test, diagnose, and make decisions in a single visit. With a growing customer base and a broader push into AI-driven diagnostics as well as software, Athelas is ready to be a leader in end-to-end, intelligent healthcare infrastructure.
