Qualifications

• 1 to 4 years of experience in a high-growth environment, such as consulting, finance, or a fast-moving startup.
• You think from first principles, going back to what you’re solving for and building forward from there, using data and numbers to inform your decisions whenever you can
• You pair strategic thinking with hands-on execution, seeing the bigger picture, breaking problems into manageable parts, and following through on the details
• You prioritize well and bring structure to messy situations, keeping competing priorities moving and people updated clearly

• Keep cross‑functional work moving. You’ll get people aligned on priorities, owners, and timelines, stay on top of dependencies, and clear blockers or raise them early.

• Own the results. You’ll decide how success gets measured, track it, and change course if a project isn’t having the impact you wanted.

Our platform connects referral sources, admissions workflows, and reimbursement systems so teams can review documentation, evaluate patients, and act quickly and confidently. Today, exacare ai powers more than 2,500 post-acute facilities / agencies.

About the Role

exacare ai is looking for a Strategy Associate to own strategic projects across the organization from start to finish and be accountable for their results.

Working closely with our Chief of Staff and partnering with leaders across the business, you’ll turn high-priority opportunities and challenges into clear plans, drive execution, and measure the impact. You’ll take on projects that span functions, improving how we operate and building the structure that helps us scale. Each one will be yours to move forward.

This is not an analysis-only role. It combines strategic thinking with hands‑on execution. You’ll identify and research problems, develop recommendations, build solutions, and stay close to the work through implementation. It’s a great fit for someone who enjoys solving ambiguous problems and takes responsibility for what happens next.

What You’ll Do

• Own strategic projects from start to finish. You’ll define the problem, decide what success looks like, build the plan, and see it through to delivery.
• Get to know the business inside and out. The more you learn about how each part of exacare ai works, the better you’ll be at spotting opportunities and finding your way through ambiguity.
• Roll up your sleeves. You’ll build analyses, test ideas, improve processes, and put solutions in place alongside the teams you’re working with.
• Keep cross‑functional work moving. You’ll get people aligned on priorities, owners, and timelines, stay on top of dependencies, and clear blockers or raise them early.
• Put AI to work. You’ll try out the best AI tools available to take repetitive tasks off people’s plates and make our processes better.
• Own the results. You’ll decide how success gets measured, track it, and change course if a project isn’t having the impact you wanted.
• Keep leadership in the loop. You’ll share progress, risks, and decisions clearly, and come with a recommendation on what to do next.

What You’ll Bring

• 1 to 4 years of experience in a high‑growth environment, such as consulting, finance, or a fast‑moving startup
• You think from first principles, going back to what you’re solving for and building forward from there, using data and numbers to inform your decisions whenever you can
• You pair strategic thinking with hands‑on execution, seeing the bigger picture, breaking problems into manageable parts, and following through on the details
• You prioritize well and bring structure to messy situations, keeping competing priorities moving and people updated clearly
• You take real ownership, acting proactively and holding yourself accountable for the outcome, not just your piece of the work
• You communicate and collaborate well across teams, keeping everyone in the loop and on board so work gets done quickly

Benefits and Perks

• Competitive salary and equity in a high‑growth startup
• Flexible PTO, take what you need
• Medical, dental, and vision coverage
• Great startup culture, including company off‑sites
• High‑achieving team, including ex‑FAANG engineers and alumni of Bain, BCG, Goldman Sachs, and more

Only the best belong here

We are unapologetic about talent. This should be the best team you have ever been on. Protecting that standard is how we honor each other’s time, ambition, and craft.

We work even harder to keep our partners than we did to earn them initially

The work does not stop when a customer first onboards to our platform. It deepens over time. We partner with operators, listening and learning about real problems, and translate that into solutions that help them succeed in practice. We earn trust through consistent delivery.

We keep the patient downstream of every decision

At the end of the day, this is about the patient. We get there by deeply respecting and reflecting on our purpose: to develop software that aids teams in delivering better care.

Raise the bar on ownership

We grow because people here go beyond the minimum. We invest extra effort, care, and ownership into what we build.

The world is moving fast. We move faster.

This is a race. We work hard, we move early, and we stay ahead of problems and competitors. If we slow down, someone else will pass us.

We say what’s true, early, and we keep communication direct and clean so the team can move.

Bring good vibes and win together

We win as a team. We bring energy, support each other, and make the workplace somewhere people are excited to show up.
