Market Expansion & Clinician Operations Lead (backed by Y Combinator, $5M+ ARR, $23M+ raised) at Legion Health in San Francisco, CA

Job description

🧠 ABOUT LEGION HEALTH At Legion Health, we believe everyone deserves fast, affordable, and world-class health care, and we’re developing the AI infrastructure to deliver it ourselves at world scale. Legion is building autonomous medical care (the AI doctor), starting with psychiatry. Our AI-native care-delivery platform currently automates 95% of the administrative work required for us to deliver direct patient care. We also recently became the first company ever to receive regulatory authorization to let AI prescribe psychiatric medications, allowing us to not only collapse health care’s admin costs but also its clinical labor costs—shifting this industry’s economics from humans to tokens. Our technical moat is hard to copy—we combine rich data, production AI, doctors in the loop, and end-to-end care operations to deliver measurably better care to a clinically complex patient population. This has helped us produce tens of thousands of total visits in just 2 years, all while holding ops costs flat and achieving industry-leading patient NPS and retention. While the last generation of healthcare startups made the existing system incrementally more efficient, Legion is rebuilding full-stack care delivery from first principles. Our vision? A 10X better patient experience that’s higher quality, less expensive, and more scalable than ever before. And a 10X better clinician experience that frees our providers to focus on what matters most: caring for patients. Legion Health is backed by Y Combinator, leading venture capital firms, and founders from Function Health, Modern Health, Everly Health, Trusted Health, Clipboard Health, PatientPing, Sesame Care, Faire, EasyPost, and fuboTV. Join us as we build the future of health care: faster, higher-quality, and more affordable, powered by doctors and AI working together. 📍 ROLE LOGISTICS • Job Type: Full-Time • Role Type: Market Expansion / Clinician Operations / Workforce Planning • Ideal Experience Level: 3+ years in healthcare operations or equivalent experience, including multi-market execution • Location: Onsite in San Francisco, CA 🚀 THE OPPORTUNITY Legion is hiring a Market Expansion & Clinician Operations Lead to turn expansion plans into markets that are ready to deliver care, with the right clinician capacity in the right places. You will connect market prioritization, state-entry execution, workforce forecasting, recruiting, onboarding, and capacity deployment into one reliable operating process. You will partner with Operations, Clinical, Revenue & Network Operations, Provider Partnerships, Finance, Product, and Engineering. Your job is to make dependencies and decision gates explicit, surface risks early, and ensure a launch becomes sustainable clinical capacity rather than a collection of completed checklists. This is a hands-on operating leadership role. You should be comfortable building a forecast, working a launch's critical path, improving recruiting and onboarding workflows, and turning recurring manual work into measurable, repeatable systems. Clinical decisions remain with clinical leadership; legal, regulatory, and payer approvals remain with the relevant accountable experts. ✅ RESPONSIBILITIES AND DELIVERABLES • Build market-entry plans that connect demand, payer readiness, clinician supply, launch economics, operating capacity, and cross-functional dependencies. • Run launch readiness reviews with clear owners, milestones, evidence, risks, and decision gates; resolve critical-path blockers and escalate tradeoffs early. • Coordinate state entry and payer-entry readiness with Revenue & Network Operations and legal, compliance, and clinical partners; track required approvals without substituting for their judgment. • Forecast clinician demand and productive capacity by market, specialty, schedule, and expected patient demand; make hiring and deployment recommendations from that forecast. • Own the operating process from clinician recruiting through offer acceptance
