Operations Associate

Health is the most important thing in life, and the American healthcare system is completely broken - poor outcomes, high cost, bad patient experience. We're building a new system from the ground up. Our mission is to improve people’s health by making it easy to live a healthy lifestyle. Nourish is the country's largest dietitian-led metabolic health clinic. We’re an AI-native digital health system matching patients with 10,000+ Registered Dietitians, physicians, medications, lab testing, and AI agents to deliver insurance-covered care across all 50 states. Founded four years ago, we've completed millions of appointments, tripled year-over‑year, and partnered with health plans covering 200M+ Americans across 250+ health systems. This is not a job for everyone. We hold an extremely high bar because we believe talent density is our biggest competitive advantage. We're looking for people who actively choose hard, ambiguous problems, who run toward unglamorous work, give and receive candid feedback, and bring relentless resilience without the ego. Our work is important, but we are not self‑important. We do this because we’re solving one of the hardest problems in the world, and the problem matters. If that's you, we disproportionately reward it.

Support ad‑hoc operations projects - including payer‑specific billing efforts and new service line expansions. Develop and maintain SOPs for operations workflows, flagging process gaps and proactively suggesting improvements to the team. Collaborate with cross‑functional partners to communicate billing updates, elevate complex cases, and gather information needed to resolve patient or payer issues.
