- You lead with humility, sound judgment, and a collaborative mindset
- You thrive in lean environments where everyone contributes and no work is beneath the leader
- J.D. from an accredited law school and active membership in good standing with a state bar

- Prior experience leading and developing legal teams while remaining actively engaged in legal execution
- Demonstrated success advising executive leadership teams on complex legal and business matters
- Exceptional commercial judgment with the ability to provide practical, business focused advice rather than simply identifying legal risk
- Outstanding negotiation, communication, and relationship building skills
- Strong experience with commercial contracting, corporate governance, regulatory compliance, litigation management, and strategic transactions
- Proven ability to thrive in a fast moving, high growth environment where priorities evolve quickly

- Commercial & Operational Legal Support:

Our take
Covera Health's study of advanced imaging technology found complex diagnoses to have error rates of 30% or more. Their answer has been to develop powerful AI-powered analytics tools to assist radiology providers in improving diagnostic accuracy, thereby reducing patient harm and healthcare expense.
It is a promising area in which to develop and deploy AI tools. Covera benefits from cloud-based access to medical records stretching back over a decade, and millions of associated data points, to refine and train their error recognition software.
Moreover, Covera is tapping into an expanding market. Not only do they serve providers in all 50 US states, they’re specializing in a niche area of a market that is expected to reach just over $80 billion by the end of 2026. Healthcare analytics is expected to revolutionize the field over the next few years, and Covera is positioning itself as a strategically specialized player.
