Build the systems that let us scale care without losing the human touch.
Location: Remote, leadership team meets in San Francisco 1-2x per month
Type: Full-time (open to contract-to-hire) — hands-on, not a manager role per say, doer in the age of AI :)
Comp: Competitive salary + high equity (high-salary or high-equity track)
Why This Role Exists
Pairtu is growing fast — but growth only works if the patient and customer experience stays exceptional and we have the operational backbone to deliver consistently. We’re looking for a senior, hands-on operator who can work across finance, strategy, credentialing + payer contracting, and day-to-day ops while keeping a sharp eye on patient experience and quality. You’ll own the connective tissue between our advocates, payers, and leadership team — ensuring no patient falls through the cracks, no credentialing deadline slips, and no operational ball is dropped.
This is not a “manage people from a distance” role. You’ll roll up your sleeves, fix broken workflows yourself, and bring back lessons that make us faster, cleaner, and more scalable.
A bit about Pairtu
We started Pairtu after years of fighting the system for our own families—Arian’s mom is beating pancreatic cancer today because he learned to hack insurance rules nobody explains. Our vision: everyone deserves a fighter like that. Today we mix smart software with human advocates to guide Medicare patients through diagnoses, bills, and care plans. Investors from Omada, Oscar, and UnitedHealthcare believe in the mission—and in the scrappy team we have built.
• Founded by 2x and 3x time experienced entrepreneurs with successful exits, with deep roster of advisors in healthcare + tech expertise.
• Backed by top-tier investors and advisors, including founders and executives from Rula, Oscar Health, Omada, Galileo, One Medical, Ro, United, Uber, and Postmates.
• We move fast and execute with purpose, operating with a lean, impact-driven mindset. We're guided by principles of conscious leadership, a commitment to getting things done (GSD), and a focus on achieving results through hard work, rapid iteration, and swift execution.
Pairtu is a fast-moving, high-impact startup where chaos is the norm, and ownership is key. There’s no playbook—some days, you’ll put out fires; other days, you’ll build from scratch. If you thrive in ambiguity, take initiative, and solve problems without waiting for direction, you’ll fit right in. If you need structure and predictability or ‘need to be a manager’ this isn’t for you. The upside? You’ll level up and have growth, work with an elite, A+ team, and make a real impact as we scale. This isn’t a corporate place, be advised.
