About NexHealth

NexHealth’s mission is to accelerate innovation in healthcare. Fixing healthcare is the challenge of our generation. This industry is stuck in the 1990s while affordability and accessibility are spiraling out of control. We currently spend ~20% of GDP on healthcare, while 25% of the world's data is stuck on legacy and antiquated health systems. NexHealth’s goal is to create an open and modern ecosystem to accelerate innovation in the space. We make it easier for everybody to build in healthcare, and ultimately empower ordinary people with access to more modern, efficient, and affordable healthcare solutions.

Mission

Design the best product experiences—not just in healthcare, but across any industry. Make NexHealth known for design excellence. You will own end-to-end design execution across our most critical surfaces. Your north star is user clarity and product simplicity. Like Airbnb or Apple, we believe design is not just polish—it’s a strategic weapon. NexHealth must become a design-led company. The bar isn’t “great for healthcare”—it’s world-class, period. As we scale, design will be our competitive edge—not just our coat of paint.

You won’t support PMs. You’ll be equal to them—and often lead product scope and influence technical architecture through superior UX clarity. Our process starts with designing the ideal user experience first. From there, we spec product features and only then write code. Design sets the direction. Everything else follows.

What You’ll Do

• End-to-end UX design across NexHealth payments. 
• Full responsibility for research, flows, wireframes, prototypes, and final UI.
• Lead product scope and shape technical implementation through design-first thinking.
• Collaborate tightly with PMs and Engineers as a co-equal product builder.
• Build and evolve design systems and scalable UI standards.
• Craft experiences that eliminate work or make the job dead simple for users.
• Champion user clarity, accessibility, and precision across every surface.
• Make design decisions that directly shape product architecture and engineering priorities.
  
  

What Success Looks Like

• Users understand and love the product without needing explanation.
• UX becomes a primary reason for adoption, retention, and customer satisfaction.
• Design drives clarity across engineering and product teams.
• NexHealth earns recognition as a product and design powerhouse.
• You shape product strategy through your design leadership.
• Users feel confident, delighted, and in control—even in high-stakes workflows.
  
  

What You’ll Bring

• 5–8+ years of end-to-end product design ownership.
• Deep experience in SaaS, platform, or API-heavy environments.
• Strong product intuition and the ability to lead product strategy through design.
• You think like a PM and build like an engineer.
• World-class taste and systems thinking.
• Ruthlessly reduce friction, polish flows, and solve for clarity over cleverness.
  
  

Why Now

We are scaling fast. NexHealth must be known for its design. We believe design is a company-level strategy, not a function.
