  • Solving a massive healthcare challenge: We're addressing a critical problem in healthcare communication that affects millions of patients
  • Own the narrative in a hot market: You'll shape how the industry talks about AI in healthcare while competing against well-funded competitors
  • In-person collaboration advantage: We've built in-person since day one and maintain this as a strategic advantage—we move faster, build stronger bonds, and create a cohesive culture
  • Direct impact: Work directly with founders to shape company positioning and go-to-market strategy
  • Meaningful equity: Early employee stock options with significant ownership potential
  • Comprehensive benefits: 100% covered healthcare, flexible time off, commuter benefits, daily team lunches

How to apply

  • At each stage, we decide within 24 hours and update you shortly after:
  • First Chat (20 min) [Virtual]: Quick conversation about your experience building trust-based marketing in healthcare
  • Marketing Strategy Session (45 min) [Virtual]: Discuss how you'd position Clarion against funded competitors and build our presence without a big budget
  • Marketing Plan (Take-home): Create a 90-day plan for establishing Clarion's narrative and maximizing our fall conference schedule
  • Team Day (Half-day) [In-Person]: Present your plan, collaborate on real challenges, and meet the team in our NYC office
  • If you're ready to transform how millions of patients connect with their healthcare providers, we'd love to hear from you.

Other

  • At Clarion, we're rebuilding how healthcare communicates in the age of AI. Today, clinics miss 30-40% of patient calls while staff drowns in administrative tasks. We believe AI agents should handle these workflows—scheduling, billing, prescription refills—so healthcare teams can focus on actual patient care.
  • We're building the communication infrastructure that modern healthcare desperately needs. Our AI agents don't just answer calls; they complete entire workflows end-to-end, giving providers back their time and ensuring patients never go unheard. We've already handled hundreds of thousands of patient interactions across virtual care companies, health systems, and a $5B health insurance company.
  • Founded by a Stanford/Harvard-trained physician who was on the founding team of Two Chairs and Ophelia, and an ex-Amazon Alexa engineer who led AI/ML teams at Salesforce, we uniquely understand both the clinical and technical challenges of transforming healthcare communication.
  • We've raised $10M from Accel, Y Combinator, Sequoia (scout) , and healthcare founders from Ophelia, Medallion, and Counsel Health. We're an in-person team based in New York, moving fast to ensure no patient call goes unanswered.
  • Define and own our story: Craft positioning and messaging that transforms Clarion from "another AI vendor" into the trusted partner healthcare teams need
  • Generate pipeline at scale: Build and execute campaigns that fill our funnel with qualified healthcare executives ready to transform their operations
  • Build trust through relationships: Create intimate customer dinners, executive roundtables, and strategic gatherings that deepen relationships with buyers and influencers
  • Turn conferences into pipeline: Maximize ROI from 10+ annual conferences through strategic meetings, speaking opportunities, and customer events (not expensive booths)
  • Create content that converts: Develop case studies, ROI calculators, blog posts, and sales materials that move deals forward
  • Enable sales to win: Arm our team with competitive intelligence, battlecards, and thought leadership that helps close deals against funded competitors
  • You believe marketing is about building trust, not just generating awareness
  • You understand that in healthcare, relationships and reputation drive deals more than SEO
  • You measure success by pipeline influenced and competitive deals won, not vanity metrics
  • You're comfortable being the only marketer while laying foundation for future hires
  • You can balance strategic thinking with hands-on execution across multiple channels
