Athelas is a Sequoia funded biotech startup working on modern, point-of-care diagnostics using Machine Learning. Our main product is an FDA cleared device for immunoresponse monitoring. We're scaling deployments rapidly across the country, and our customer base includes major pharmaceutical companies. If you're interested in modernizing healthcare and working at the intersection of machine learning and healthcare, we are the right place for you.

Athelas is a small, creative, and hard-working team and we're looking for individuals with a founder-type mentality to join us.

Healthcare providers go into medicine to care for people, but end up losing valuable time each day to admin work and other workplace challenges. Time that could otherwise be spent helping patients. And patients end up suffering as a result. At Commure, we build solutions that simplify providers' lives and keep them connected to their patients so they can focus on doing what matters most: providing care. 

Our innovative suite of software and hardware – augmented by advanced LLM AI, RTLS, and healthcare workflow automations – boosts efficiency across every domain of healthcare, freeing up healthcare providers to spend more of their time caring for patients. Our growing suite of technologies include staff duress alerting, asset tracking, patient elopement, revenue cycle management, clinical documentation and intake, provider copilots, patient engagement and communication, home health, remote patient monitoring, and more.

Today, we support over 250,000 clinicians across hundreds of care sites around the country. And we’re only just getting started: Healthcare’s watershed moment for AI-powered transformation is here – so join us in creating the technology to power healthcare!

About the Role:

We’re looking for an Operations Manager to support our Revenue Growth team for our Revenue Cycle Management (RCM) Product. This role will be responsible for quarterly presentations of revenue growth composed of the diagnosis of any reasons for revenue fluctuation and recommendations for improving topline performance, as well as any ad hoc analysis that is either requested by clients or would improve their overall experience. The Revenue Growth team is critical to customer satisfaction and solvency, and requires cross-collaboration across our Product, Engineering, Account Management and Operations teams. This is a high-visibility, high-impact, high-autonomy role that will quickly expand to cover more and more emergent business problem areas. Successfully navigating and solving our hyper-growth challenges will lead to rapid growth in role and responsibility.

This full-time position requires working five (5) days a week in our Mountain View, CA office.

What You'll Do:

• Prepare and deliver quarterly presentations on revenue performance, benchmarking against the customer's previous RCM vendor

• Explain revenue deltas by identifying process weaknesses and analyzing shifts in payer and procedure ratios

• Ruthlessly prioritize and implement process fixes to negate drops in revenue

• Craft data-driven recommendations to help customers enhance efficiency and drive revenue growth

• Launch ad hoc revenue growing initiatives across multiple customers

• Continuously drive process improvements for both the internal team and cross-functional partners

What You Have:

• 2-4 years experience in consulting, investment banking or operations at a fast-paced SaaS tech company

• Deep experience in data analysis (both SQL and Excel are a must, Python is a bonus) - basic open-resource SQL assessment will be part of the interview process

• Proficiency in documenting and developing best practices to enable incremental improvement and optimization of operational processes

• Experience working cross-functionally with sales, operations and engineering

• Demonstrated drive, intellectual curiosity, attention to detail and a proven record of success

• Novice mentality: You know what you don’t know and you aren’t afraid to ask questions to fill those gaps.

• Comfort in chaos: You’re comfortable working autonomously to solve problems with ambiguity, can expertly prioritize, and have a knack for identifying internal and external blockers.

• Customer obsessed: You’re going to dig until you hit bedrock to solve a problem for the customer, because we need to ensure that our clients have the cash they need to pay the doctors and nurses that work on the front lines of healthcare.

• Proficient in Retool, GSuite is a plus

• Experience in the RCM space is a plus

Machine Learning

Our device captures high resolution images of blood smears which we analyze using internally CNNs. Our networks are responsible for segmenting cells, classifying them, and deciding which images include valid and invalid samples. In addition, we have specially designed networks for classifying abnormal cells (blast cells, giant platelets, nucleated red blood cells) that require additional intervention.

Hardware

Our hardware stack includes custom objective lenses and image sensors to provide the optimal tradeoff for field of view and cell resolution. Our device includes an onboard linux processor, motor drivers, and a linear actuator for orienting and moving the sample. We are always looking to improve our imaging stack to provide more powerful images for analysis.

Clinic Product

We provide customers (clinics) a web-based interface for analyzing results, looking up patient history, and integrating directly with pharmacies. Our frontend is built entirely in react and redux.

Server API

Our APIs are built using flask and sqlalchemy with a postgres database. Our infrastructure is hosted using Kubernetes on GCP. We believe in simple, reliable infrastructure that allows us to spend most of our time on improving our tests and adding new ones.
