About Us
At Sprinter Health, we're focused on dramatically expanding access to healthcare by reimagining the patient experience—delivered at home and powered by technology for scale. Sprinter Health is building the clinical and technological infrastructure to realize a future of healthcare untethered. We have a rapidly growing team of visionary leaders who are passionate about increasing access to care, lowering healthcare costs, and improving outcomes for patients. We’re backed by prominent VCs, advised by a medical board of industry leaders, and led by former executives, physicians, and engineers from Google, Facebook, Labcorp, and Disney.
We're building the technology and clinical services platform to make preventive, connected healthcare accessible for everyone in the US. We deliver hybrid care (in-home virtual) backed by data products across 15 states, serving 60% of the US population through major health plans and systems. With 1M patients and a 92 NPS, we're rapidly scaling our impact.
YOUR MISSION
Sprinters (our mobile phlebotomists and clinicians) are on the frontlines of patient care—but they can’t do it alone. That’s where you come in. As a Temporary Field Support Specialist, you’ll be the real-time lifeline for Sprinters in the field: answering questions, solving problems, and keeping the day moving. You’ll also play a key role in supporting day-to-day operational projects—helping coordinate tasks, track progress, and ensure nothing falls through the cracks. Think of it as a blend of customer support, air traffic control, project coordination, and operations troubleshooting—done with empathy and speed.
This role is perfect for someone who thrives in a fast-paced, high-growth environment, loves helping people, and can bring clarity to chaos while keeping projects and priorities on track.
This is a temporary remote role with a planned end date of 12/31/26.
