About Candid Health

What we do

We’re fixing one of the most broken and costly pieces of the US healthcare system: medical billing.

Today, healthcare providers spend over $250B each year on administrative overhead just to get paid by insurance. Medical billing is expensive because it’s nuanced and hard - maybe ~100x harder than credit card payment processing - and because it’s traditionally done by armies of humans who track and manage complex rules and processes specific to individual insurance companies with little or no supporting software.

We’re rethinking medical billing from the ground up, using data science and machine learning to automate much of this complexity, so healthcare providers can get paid dramatically more easily and inexpensively.

Since finishing the Y Combinator W20 batch we've been funded by an incredible group of funds + angel investors. We have many more customers begging to use our product than we have bandwidth to serve, which is why we need you to help us scale!

About the role

The Role

Candid Health is looking to hire multiple Customer Strategy & Operations team members in 2026! Over the past year, this team has grown significantly, and we’re excited to bring on new talent to help drive that momentum forward and support our continued expansion.

In this role, you will own a portfolio of current customers and will be responsible for ensuring that they achieve world-class revenue cycle outcomes. You will work directly with them to understand their challenges (e.g., root causing denials issues, digging into workflow gaps), as well as cross-functionally with other internal teams at Candid to develop solutions. 

This team is at the tip of the spear working with customers helping to make medical billing less painful for everyone involved. If you are excited about what we are building, we’d love to speak with you and see if there is a fit across the team!

What you’ll be doing

  • You’ll interact closely with our current customers, developing intuition around their biggest pain points and thinking of creative ways to address them.

  • You’ll own significant business outcomes and be responsible for driving key metrics for the company.

  • You will be responsible for digging into data (i.e. performing analysis on claims metrics) to identify the root cause of customer issues and provide data informed recommendations for solutions

  • The solutions that you help develop may be both operational (e.g., workflow (re-)design) and/or product-oriented (e.g., automation of manual workflows)

  • Your main goal will be to maximize the value that Candid delivers for our customers (i.e., helping ensure a higher portion of claims get paid, more quickly, and with less effort)

  • You will work closely with other Candid teams, including our RCM, Customer Support, Product, Design and Engineering teams to help solve our customers most valuable and painful problems

  • You’ll play a critical role in shaping our company culture and help make this the best place we’ve ever worked.

Who you are

  • 1-5 years of experience
  • You have a demonstrated track record of expansively owning and driving key business outcomes on high-performing teams.
  • You take pride in your craft and enjoy maintaining a high quality bar, but also believe that “done is better than perfect” and have good intuition around which corners are okay to cut and which aren’t.
  • You enjoy identifying problems and designing product features to address them, and aren’t shy about rolling up your sleeves and getting the work done in the meantime.
  • You have a track record of scaling processes and operations.
  • You’re a clear and concise communicator; you enjoy the challenge of explaining complicated ideas in simple terms, both in-person and in writing.
  • [Optionally] You have experience in healthcare technology and/or healthcare financial services
Technology

Back: modern Python (async, type annotated) ~mini services, Celery + Redis for task queues, Postgres.

Infra: Containerize all the things. docker-compose locally, Kuberntes + Istio on GCP. Pretty sophisticated developer tooling + CI (Github Actions) given our size.
