    About this role

    Candid Health’s mission is to automate the financial infrastructure of America’s healthcare system. Today, healthcare providers spend over $280B each year on administrative overhead just to get paid by insurance (a staggering ~1% of US GPD).

    By leveraging advanced AI and automation, the platform enables healthcare providers to spend less time on admin and paperwork to focus on delivering quality patient care.

    Candid Health is looking for exceptional talent to join our sales team as we scale our healthcare revenue cycle management platform. As a Series D company, we’re at a critical inflection point — expanding nationwide while building the sales engine that powers our next phase of growth.
