Description
ABOUT US
We are fixing US healthcare by building an AI-native physical care platform, starting with home health.
Home health is a $140B industry with less than $10B in EBITDA — 40% of revenue is spent on pure administrative waste. We automate this work with AI, creating a fundamentally different cost structure compared to incumbents. This lets us rapidly take market share by serving the 30% of patients who go untreated today.
By reshaping the cost structure of this industry, we unlock its growth.
We’ve built one of the best AI teams in the world (from Character AI, Scale, Palantir, Citadel, Jane Street) and paired them with a team of healthcare veterans and ex-MBB strategists to build a new type of healthcare company: one that delivers care at the speed of an AI company.
Our physical care platform already operates with 30pp higher gross margins than traditional home health providers. With our AI advantage, we pay nurses more, remove their admin burden, and unlock the scale economics that have been missing from this fragmented industry. If we served this entire $140B market, instead of $10B in EBITDA, we’d drive $60B.
We're starting with home health, then expanding to all delivered care. Our mission is “any care, any where”.
Fundamentally, our incentives are aligned with America. Every dollar in revenue we make is two dollars taken out of the healthcare system. If we succeed, so does US healthcare.
ABOUT THE ROLE
We're standing up a high-leverage Growth team with a simple mandate: expand Adaptive into new regions, states, and lines of business, and build the muscle that lets us do it repeatedly.
This team will be responsible for figuring out where we grow, how we win, and then actually making it happen — from market screening and prioritization to on-the-ground execution with operations, clinical leaders, and product/AI. Think of it as a blend of:
- Strategy (market selection, entry thesis, business cases)
- Ops (playbook design, process build, KPI tracking)
- GTM (executing acquisitions and de novo entries, building local demand, accelerating growth flywheels)
You'll be one of the earliest members of this team, working directly with company leadership as well as on-the-ground clinicians and operators to shape our growth strategy and build the playbooks we'll use to launch every new region and product for years to come.
This role is designed for you if you have a low ego, love solving problems that matter, and are ready to build an industry-changing company. It will provide a platform to quickly develop into a leader within the Growth org or a regional GM / P&L owner.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
You'll own high-impact, ambiguous problems end-to-end:
1. Choose what markets we enter and when
- Analyze growth markets across patient demand, payor mix, clinician supply, competition, and regulatory dynamics
- Build business cases and sharp, simple models to recommend which metros and states we should enter, and in what sequence
- Pressure-test theses with leadership and external advisors
2. Design how we enter and win
- Partner with Ops, Clinical, and Product to design "Day -90 → Day 0 → Day 365" playbooks for new regions
- Translate our playbook into market-specific strategies (e.g., which roles to hire and how many, which health systems to target)
- Identify and shape opportunities across de novo launches, acquisitions, and partnerships
3. Turn strategy into reality
- Run point on market entries — own the implementation of our playbook in each new market
- Build the weekly operating rhythm: dashboards, KPIs, and routines that keep teams aligned and accountable
- Get in the field and quarterback operations to make sure plans work in the real world
4. Build the systems that let us scale
- Codify what works into reusable playbooks and tooling so we can expand rapidly and efficiently
- Partner with our AI and engineering teams to surface growth insights and inform the product roa
