Deployment Strategist
Flume HealthFlume Health is a software company that connects the fragmented healthcare data ecosystem for more efficient health plan administration. As a single, cloud-native integration platform, Flume’s Relay platform allows companies to easily connect various systems and vendors for efficient data exchange that’s increasingly demanded of the modern health plan. Payers, third-party administrators, prescription benefits managers, and health solutions are provided the simplicity, speed, and security they need to automate data integration and movement between relevant stakeholders. Relay supports multiple data transmission protocols, data types, and file types. By streamlining data flows between payers and solutions, a world of opportunity exists to improve access to healthcare. Flume Health was founded in 2018, and closed a $30M series A in February 2022, led by Optum Ventures and CIGNA ventures—it was the fastest portfolio company that's ever gone through Optum's due diligence process. In total, Flume has raised over $40M from investors including Crosslink Capital, Accomplice VC, Primary VC, Founder Collective, Route 66, and Entrepreneurs Roundtable Accelerator (ERA).
This description is a summary of our understanding of the job description. Click on 'Apply' button to find out more. Role Description Flume Health is hiring a Deployment Strategist to own integration delivery and solve complex client problems across our portfolio, with a primary focus on our largest accounts. You are the person who sits at the intersection of client needs, data integration complexity, and AI-powered execution. You figure out how to get things done, unblock delivery, and drive outcomes. What makes this role different: - Build, manage, and continuously tune a team of AI agents that solve complete problems end-to-end. - Diagnose connection failures, generate client-ready deliverables, and automate workflows. - Responsible for agent performance: refining prompts, improving outputs, and expanding capabilities. This role requires a consulting mindset: the ability to walk into ambiguity, structure the problem, mobilize resources (human and AI), and deliver. You will manage the integration delivery cadence, but more importantly, you will be the person clients call when something is hard and needs to get figured out. This is not a traditional project management role. This is an execution-oriented position with a clear progression path into Flume’s Forward Deployment and Strategic Deployment practice, where you will own client engagements that drive platform transformation and measurable business outcomes for health payers and TPAs. Qualifications - 2-4 years in consulting, implementation, or healthcare operations. - AI-native (required). - Client-facing confidence. - Structured thinker. - Low ego, high throughput. - Healthcare exposure preferred, not required. Requirements - Experience building, tuning, and measuring AI agent workflows to solve multi-step business problems. - Background in strategy consulting, management consulting, or implementation delivery at a professional services firm. - Familiarity with TPA operations, claims processing, healthcare EDI, or health plan administration. - Experience with Jira, Snowflake, or healthcare data integration platforms. - Comfort working in a fast-paced, early-stage environment where scope evolves quickly. Benefits - Flexible PTO - you’re going to be working hard so enjoy time off. - A robust stock option plan to give our employees a direct stake in Flume’s success. - WFH stipend - we’ve always been remote first. - Competitive compensation and 401k with a 4% match. - Comprehensive health coverage (medical, dental, vision).
