About NexHealth

NexHealth’s mission is to accelerate innovation in healthcare. Fixing healthcare is the challenge of our generation. This industry is stuck in the 1990s while affordability and accessibility are spiraling out of control. We currently spend ~20% of GDP on healthcare, while the 25% of the world's data is stuck on legacy and antiquated health systems. NexHealth’s goal is to create an open and modern ecosystem to accelerate innovation in the space. We make it easier for everybody to build in healthcare, and ultimately empower ordinary people with access to more modern, efficient and affordable healthcare solutions.

• Work closely with engineering leads to unblock teams, improve technical velocity, and ensure delivery
• Partner with Product and Engineering to scope initiatives, translate business goals into program plans, and manage dependencies

• Strong communicator who can navigate ambiguity and drive outcomes across stakeholders
• Comfortable in high-ownership, high-context environments
