Head of Operations

Location: Remote (U.S.-based) Commitment: Full-time Type: W-2 employee

ABOUT MIRAMACE

Mira Mace pairs Medicare beneficiaries with a dedicated healthcare advocate who navigates appointments, insurance, and care coordination on their behalf. Our customers get the support of caring nurses while AI agents handle the tedious backend work, all covered by Medicare.

We've felt the pain ourselves: the endless back-and-forth with insurance, surprise bills, and the lack of clarity when you just need answers. Too many people fall through the cracks, and we're determined to change that.

Today, 24/7 personalized health assistance is only available to the rich or the extremely sick. Our vision is for everyone to be able to afford a health assistant who knows their health history deeply, navigates the healthcare system on their behalf, and helps them become the healthiest version of themselves.

Our founding team brings technical experience from Microsoft, Google, Meta and Amazon, and startup experience from bootstrapped ventures to Series D scale-ups. We're backed by Foundation Capital, Define Ventures and Silicon Valley angel investors.

ABOUT THE ROLE

As Head of Operations, you own the machine that delivers Mira's care: how patients get enrolled and onboarded, how Care Advocates are hired, trained and staffed, how clinicians are credentialed, and how care turns into revenue. Today, too much of that runs on people working heroically. Your job is to make it run on systems, so that every week's results are predictable before the week starts.

You'll get a lot of autonomy and no handholding. If a number slips, you'll be the first to know and the one who fixes it, permanently.

WHO YOU ARE

• You've done strategy and operations at fast-growing, leading tech companies.

• You have a background in fast-paced, ops-heavy environments such as McKinsey, BCG or Bain.

• You build systems, not workarounds. When something breaks twice, you find the root cause, redesign the process and add a metric so it can't quietly break again.

• You move first and refine as you go. You'll make a good decision today rather than a perfect one next month.

• You treat every problem in your area as yours. You don't wait for permission, a full spec or another meeting.

• You're energized by real urgency. Your best work has come when the stakes were high and the timeline was short.

• You live in the numbers and in the details, and you hold yourself and others to a high bar.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Work with the COO to build the engine of the company: getting patients enrolled, growing our provider and Care Advocate teams, and the workflows underneath each. Scale all three while raising the bar on quality, never trading one for the other.

• Work closely with engineering so our internal systems are held to the same standard of rigor as the products our customers use.

• Work with our compliance and our credentialing and enrollment teams so providers are ready to see patients and operations meet CMS requirements.

• Turn messy, people-dependent work into documented, measured, repeatable processes.

• Build the capacity plan: how many advocates and clinicians we need, where, and when, ahead of demand.

• Find the bottleneck that matters most each week, fix it, and move on to the next one.

• Build and lead the operations team as Mira scales.

QUALIFICATIONS

Required

• Bachelor's or master's degree from a top 15 school.

• Prior experience at McKinsey, BCG or Bain.

• Strategy and operations leadership experience after consulting, with results you can measure.

• A track record of building predictable, measurable systems in a fast-moving, high-ownership environment.

Preferred

• Healthcare operations experience, especially Medicare, provider operations or revenue cycle.

• Experience at a high-growth startup.

• A wizard at building financial models, and at using Claude Code to build proof-of-concept artifacts that quickly become dashboards or processes.

This is a remote, full-time W-2 role with benefits.
