Building the financial operating system for healthcare, and bringing the joy back to healthcare by fixing the financial chaos behind it.

The healthcare payment system is a complex and inefficient maze - healthcare practices leave $125 billion in revenue uncollected each year, lost in the chaos of fragmented financial data, manual workflows, and opaque payer systems. This financial uncertainty leaves practices struggling to stay afloat, while valuable revenue slips through the cracks.

Joyful Health is building the AI-powered financial operating system for healthcare practices. Our mission is to bring the joy back to running a private practice by simplifying financial operations so providers can focus on patient care. We spent 10 months working as fractional CFOs for a dozen practices, doing this work side by side with providers as we developed our product.

We just closed a funding round led by world-class investors including the founders of MongoDB & KAYAK.

🚀 We have an enormous opportunity in front of us. The broken healthcare payment ecosystem impacts practices of all sizes, and the opportunity to make a real difference is massive.

This role is full-time. We’re looking for someone NYC-based who is open to coming into the office 3 days a week.

The base pay range for this role is $140,000-$170,000 per year + uncapped commission. Base pay offered may vary depending on job and industry-related knowledge, skills, and experience.

Role Description

We’re looking for a full-cycle Account Executive to join Joyful Health and us scale our offering to more provider groups across the country.

This is a rare opportunity to join a company at the moment when product-market pull is accelerating. Healthcare practices are actively searching for better ways to manage revenue and financial operations. Because of this, we frequently see more demand than we can currently support.

This role is designed for someone who wants to own meaningful revenue early and help build the foundation of the sales team at Joyful.

You'll:

• Sell a product solving one of the most painful operational problems in healthcare

• Work on mid-market and enterprise deals with multi-location healthcare practices

• Own the full sales cycle — from sourcing opportunities to closing contracts

• Help shape the sales motion and go-to-market strategy as we scale

For the right person, this role offers the opportunity to have outsized impact on Joyful’s growth while building a career-defining track record in healthcare technology.

This role is full-time and based in NYC. We'll provide relocation assistance for the right candidate.

What you'll do…

Build relationships in the healthcare ecosystem

• Develop relationships within the RCM and healthcare operations community

• Represent Joyful Health at industry events and conferences

  • Comfortable owning the entire sales process from first conversation through contract

  • Experience managing multi-stakeholder deals with $100k+ ACV

• You understand healthcare (or are excited to learn it deeply)

  • Familiarity with revenue cycle management, billing, or healthcare operations is a major plus

  • You’re curious and excited to go deep on the complexity of RCM and healthcare financial operations

• You want to help build, not just sell

  • You’re excited about helping build the sales function, not just hitting quota

  • You enjoy collaborating with product, marketing, and leadership to refine messaging and strategy
