Qualifications

- Excellent collaboration and stakeholder communication skills.
- Strong organizational skills and attention to detail, with the ability to manage multiple open workstreams simultaneously.
- Bachelor's degree required; PMP, Scrum Master, or Agile certification a plus.
- Genuine respect for the healthcare regulatory environment and an understanding of why compliance and data security are non-negotiable.
- You bring energy and personality to the work, high-performing and fun are not mutually exclusive to you, and the teams and customers around you feel that.
- Located and authorized to work in the United. Preference for candidates in Minneapolis, MN.
- Familiarity with payer operations, care management workflows, or value-based care models.
- Experience working with or supporting B2B Customer Success or Account Management teams.

- Challenges are opportunities – both personal and professional growth are part of the journey.
- A healthy work-life balance is essential, not just a nice-to-have.
- Empathy and social sensitivity are qualities we actively look for in our team members.
- Diverse teams simply perform better – and we build with that in mind.
- We believe in getting to know each other on a personal level.
- Our goal is to make a meaningful, positive impact on the lives of others.
