We’re looking for a Strategy & Operations Lead to work directly with the cofounders on the highest‑leverage priorities across the company. This is a true generalist, 0→1 role: part strategy, part execution, part systems‑building. You’ll help shape how Corner Health grows—from launching new business lines to improving operational models to unlocking entirely new ways for providers and patients to engage.

At Corner 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 Corner Health vs. elsewhere, and patients return at 2× the national average - not because of marketing, but because the experience actually works.

This is one of the most impactful roles at Corner Health.

What you'll work on:

  • Drive company‑level strategic initiatives across product, operations, and growth
  • Launch and scale new business lines — from wellness and cash‑pay services to longitudinal care programs and new patient engagement models
  • Build and refine operational systems that improve efficiency, quality, and provider success
  • Run 0→1 experiments to validate new opportunities and accelerate learning
  • Analyze business performance and develop insights that shape strategic decisions
  • Partner cross‑functionally with product, engineering, operations, and growth to ensure initiatives land in practice
  • Develop scalable playbooks that turn successful experiments into repeatable systems across our network
  • Work directly with providers to understand needs, test new ideas, and drive real P&L impact
  • Own special projects that don’t have a natural home but matter deeply to the business
  • Create clarity in ambiguity and push initiatives from concept to execution

You’ll help make each practice more successful than the last—and build the systems that allow Corner Health to scale exponentially.

What you’re like:

  • Hard‑working, kind, curious, and energized by solving ambiguous problems
  • A high‑slope generalist who can move seamlessly from strategy to execution
  • Comfortable working directly with founders and senior leaders
  • Able to design systems, not just run processes
  • Excited to work with providers and understand the realities of care delivery
  • 4–6 years of experience in a high‑performing environment (early‑stage startup, top‑tier consulting, high‑growth ops, or similar)
  • Based in Los Angeles or excited to relocate; this role is in‑person in Santa Monica.

What would set you apart:

  • Experience in health tech or healthcare operations
  • A track record of building or scaling something from 0→1
  • Excitement about empowering independent medical providers
  • Interest in emerging wellness and longevity trends, paired with an evidence‑driven mindset
  • Deep care for building something patients genuinely trust.

Benefits:

  • Competitive salary & equity compensation
  • Top-tier health and dental
  • Health & wellness stipend
