Senior Operations Associate

About Fortuna Health

We believe accessing healthcare should be as simple as doing your taxes on TurboTax. But for the millions on Medicaid, it’s not.

Fortuna Health is redefining the consumer experience for Medicaid. We’re helping millions navigate Medicaid end-to-end from eligibility and enrollment to renewing coverage. We're backed by a16z, BoxGroup, YC, and top healthcare angels.

We believe this is a once in a lifetime opportunity to dramatically improve the human condition for 90M people, and we need the help of high-throughput, growth-minded builders to make it happen.

About the role

What you'll do

As an early operations hire at Fortuna, you’ll help shape how our company scales. We work fully in-person 5 days a week out of our NYC office, and believe deeply in the value of a focused, supportive, and tight-knit team.

As a Senior Operations Associate, you’ll help manage B2B client relationships while running key parts of the operational engine behind our consumer (B2C) product, owning problems end-to-end for thousands of people navigating coverage every month. This is a fast-paced role with real visibility, perfect for someone energized by complexity, execution, and real-world impact.

We’re looking for highly driven generalists who are eager to learn across multiple operational functions. For the right person, there’s a clear path to taking on more ownership and growing into a leadership role as we scale.

This is a strong fit for someone with an operational instinct and a real interest in Medicaid policy. There's a lot of greenfield to build here, and the role will grow and change as the company does. What you own six months in will look different from what you own on day one.

What we're looking for

Product Mindset

Our philosophy is that everyone should be product-oriented. We’re fundamentally building a consumer product for the masses. You will be in a unique position to understand both our enterprise clients and our end users. The challenge for you is to help balance the needs of both while remaining committed to our core user experience.

Ownership

There's plenty of greenfield, exploratory work to be done. We need someone to be able to take an ambiguous problem and run with it. As workflows mature, you'll be expected to own them end-to-end without heavy oversight.

High Velocity

We're looking for a rockstar operator: someone energetic, detail-oriented, and capable of managing context for multiple clients comfortably. Speed and quality aren't a tradeoff here—we expect both.

Respectful Disagreement

We believe it's crucial to be able to openly disagree with anyone on the team. We are looking for someone who doesn't shy away from conflict, but is respectful and empathetic in their approach and always open to different ideas.

Humility

It's important to be able to admit when you're wrong. We are looking for a low-ego teammate who is able to take failures in stride and grow from them.
