Vitable’s Culture:

We’re all owners – We’re all equity owners and we demand that we all act like it. Owners never say “that’s not my job.” They put our members first and look beyond themselves and their immediate team to prioritize what’s best for the entire company.

Maniacal about delighting customers – We go above and beyond for all members and obsess over each customer as though they were our first customer. We anticipate potential issues, and quickly solve known issues. That’s how we win and it’s in our control. In fact, it’s the only thing we can truly control.

Make things happen – We understand that ‘good enough isn’t good enough.’ We demand excellence and insist on increasingly high standards which many may think are unreasonably high. The best people and teams always find a way to will things into existence.

Create the place to do our life’s work – We bring our authentic selves to work and look to create a kind environment where each of us can do our life’s work. Work we’ll be proud to tell our grandchildren about when we’re 80 years old: challenging work done together with kind and formidable teammates, where we push each other to grow faster than we would anywhere else while driving step-function jumps in positive impact.

Default to Trust – We filter for people with high integrity and give trust by default on Day 0. Defaulting to trust enables us to be direct with each other, even when doing so is uncomfortable. Having conviction and respectfully challenging ideas is expected. Our mission to build the most delightful and accessible healthcare experience is too important to compromise.

At Vitable, we care deeply about building with empathy and are committed to hiring people from diverse backgrounds, experiences, and skills to help us build delightful healthcare experiences that are truly accessible to everyone. You do not need to match every listed expectation to apply for this position.

If you're excited about what we're building and think there might be a mutual fit, please apply.
