Requirements
  • You can’t be successful here if you:
  • Don’t enjoy writing. We write a lot, and we hold our writing to a high standard. If you aren’t comfortable being scrutinized on not only the content but the clarity of your writing week over week, our culture won’t be a good fit for you.
  • Want to know what to do. In your role as an APM, you’ll regularly be given tasks that are seemingly ambiguous. You will have to use your judgment to bring clarity to it. You may even propose that the task isn’t something we should focus on today. That’s okay too.
  • Don’t like working with data or math. As a marketplace company, we have a highly quantitative culture. Our language is steeped in numbers.
  • Don’t enjoy talking to customers. We talk to our customers day in and day out. Our customer conversations are an integral part of how we make decisions.
  • Don’t want an intellectual challenge. The problems we face are novel and challenging, and we expect people to solve them quickly. If you aren’t looking for an intellectual challenge in your role, this won’t be a good fit.
Responsibilities
  • In your first 30 days you’ll:
  • Talk to customers, understand their problems, and surface issues we weren’t devoting enough attention to
  • Ramp up on the business, the product, and how we work
  • Design and run marketplace experiments to validate hypotheses
  • Write weekly write-ups and other documentation to keep others abreast of your work
  • In your first 90 days you’ll:
  • Own an important problem on your own
  • Write a plan (you may have to write several drafts) that proposes a solution to the problem
  • Broadcast the plan to relevant stakeholders, get their feedback, and adjust it
  • Execute on the plan and report findings to the executive team

Clipboard Health uses technology to bridge the gap between healthcare facilities and professionals, such as CNAs, LVNs, RNs, and more, in multiple locations across the U.S. By addressing the nationwide shortage of nurses, this platform not only fosters professional growth opportunities for new nursing graduates but also ensures top facilities are staffed adequately. This focus on efficiently meeting both healthcare needs and professional opportunities makes it an attractive workplace that is actively contributing to solving critical staffing issues in the healthcare industry.
