Design Your Own Role

About Us

Cornel Health is an early-stage technology company building the operating system for independent primary care. We give Nurse Practitioners (NPs) everything they need to start and run their own practices — from billing and insurance infrastructure to AI-powered workflow automation. We’re positioned to be the fastest growing in-person primary care company ever.

Cornel Health was co-founded by Lava Sunder and Anne Gifford and has raised a Series A backed by top investors, as well as the founders of DoorDash, Commure, Grow Therapy, Kindred, Culdesac & more.

About The Role

At Cornel Health, we’re building something fundamentally different: a network of hyper-local, independent, in-person primary care practices powered by modern technology. This is a completely new model of care. Today, 88% of patients prefer a provider powered by Cornel Health vs. elsewhere, and patients return at 2× the national average - not because of marketing, but because the experience actually works. That foundation creates a unique opportunity.

• Keep operations running
• Drive projects forward
• Fill gaps where they appear

This role is perfect for someone who loves building, learning fast, and wearing multiple hats. You’ll work directly with the founders and have a hand in shaping the company from day one.

What You'll Work On

• Build scrappy systems
• Build and optimize day to day processes and workflows
• Create structure and drive ambiguous problems to completion without needing hand-holding
• Wear multiple hats
• Jump between operations, product, customer success, recruiting, and whatever the business needs that week
• Solve problems before they become problems
• Spot gaps, propose solutions, and execute quickly
• Support founders directly
• Act as an extension of the founding team, taking on high-leverage tasks and removing blockers
• Interface with customers
• Join calls, gather feedback, troubleshoot issues, and turn insights into action
• Run experiments
• Test ideas quickly, measure impact, and iterate without ego
• Create clarity from chaos
• Bring structure to fast-moving, ambiguous environments

What You’re Like

• Have 2-3 years of experience in a dynamic environment (startups, small teams, agencies, or similar)
• Enjoy working in-person (our office is in Santa Monica, CA); you either live in LA or are excited to move to LA
• Extreme ownership mindset: You take responsibility for outcomes, not just tasks
• Swiss-army-knife skill set: Comfortable learning new tools, systems, and domains on the fly
• Strong communicator: Clear, concise, and able to communicate with customers, partners, and leadership
• Comfortable with ambiguity: You thrive when priorities shift and answers aren’t obvious
• Builder mentality: You enjoy creating something from scratch more than maintaining something established
• Low-ego collaborator: You jump in wherever needed, regardless of title or scope
• Bias toward action: You’d rather ship something imperfect today than perfect next month
• Resourceful problem-solver: You find a way, even when the path isn’t obvious

What We're Like

You’re joining an early-stage company - it’s important to learn more about what we’re like! We're a small team with high ownership and high autonomy. We are motivated by the providers we get to know, and the patient lives we impact. We love celebrating when one of our providers hits a patient growth milestone, when we see a stellar review written by a patient who finally feels listened to, or when we ship a quick feature request that a provider has (our fastest time from request → live was 12 minutes!) We use best-in-class tools to move fast and punch above our weight, and the work we do has a direct, tangible impact on people's health and lives, and we feel that every day. Lastly - one of our team values is "Life is short - it's OK to laugh". Whether it's late-night team dinners, mini golf, or just jamming on new ideas for our providers - we work hard and have fun doing it.

Benefits

• Competitive salary & equity compensation
• Top-tier health and dental
• Health & wellness stipend
• Eligible to participate in company-sponsored 401(k) plan
