We reduce waste, cut costs, and improve throughput in hospitals by automating and orchestrating clinical workflows.

We are trusted by leading U.S. health systems including HCA, Sutter Health, Advent Health, Trinity Health, and the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs. Backed by Goldman Sachs, we have scaled rapidly over the last two years and are now building the foundation required for the next phase of durable, disciplined hyper growth.
We are hiring a CFO to own that foundation.Why this role is compelling
In short
This role is for a CFO whose instinct is precision, who is deeply hands-on, and who earns influence by being consistently correct.
If you are a CFO who is trusted more than admired, relied upon more than celebrated, and whose presence makes reality clearer for everyone around you, this role is designed for you.We may use artificial intelligence (AI) tools to support parts of the hiring process, such as reviewing applications, analyzing resumes, or assessing responses. These tools assist our recruitment team but do not replace human judgment. Final hiring decisions are ultimately made by humans.

- Clean cap table with a strong anchor investor (Goldman Sachs)
- Established executive and finance team; this role raises the bar rather than building from zero
- This is a details-first CFO role with boardroom presence.

- Revenue recognition, commissions, hiring plans, and multi-entity structures, ensuring we never “grow ourselves into a problem”
- The financial narrative with the Board and investors, bringing clarity, rigor, and credibility
- Acting as an early-warning system for the CEO, surfacing signals, not surprises
- Not a pure strategist or fundraising-focused CFO role
- Not a COO-style operational role
- Not a narrative-first or optics-driven finance leader

- CPA or equivalent background preferred
- Clear track record owning cash forecasting, tax complexity, audits, and multi-entity structures
- Comfortable leading Board and investor conversations with confidence and clarity
- Experience managing international entities and teams (preferred)
- High-ownership mindset: pragmatic, direct, low-drama, and execution-orientedHealthcare experience helpful, but not required
