A modern prescription network. Backed by Flare Capital Partners.
About the role
You can be thrown at almost anything and figure out how to make it work. One month that might mean rebuilding how the company hires and onboards people, the next it might be automating a reporting process no one's had time to fix, the next it's diving into a data problem that's been ignored. You don't need a fixed lane — you build one wherever the company needs it most right now.
What they're looking for
- 4-6+ years in a high-ownership, high-breadth operational role (chief of staff, business operations, startup operations generalist) with a track record of context-switching across genuinely different problem types
- Demonstrated ability to build structure and process from ambiguity, across more than one functional area
- Experience at an early-stage (Series A/B) startup, where process didn't exist yet and you had to build it
- Real, hands-on tooling/automation fluency — comfortable using scripting, no-code, or AI-assisted platforms to eliminate manual work rather than absorb it
- Strong written and verbal communication — comfortable synthesizing information for an executive audience
- Proven follow-through and resourcefulness: things you own get finished, without needing a playbook handed to you
More about this role
Photon gives patients ownership of prescriptions. We’re building the infrastructure that connects prescribing to fulfillment, giving patients a simpler way to understand their options and choose where and how to get their medications. Our vision is to make prescriptions more transparent, accessible, and consumer-driven.

You think in systems, not job descriptions. People process, internal tooling, budgeting, onboarding — to you these are all just systems that either work or don't, and you're the person who makes them work. You'd rather build a script, a workflow, or an AI-assisted tool than hire your way out of a manual process. You're allergic to busywork, especially your own — if something's repeatable, you make it repeatable by a system, not by you doing it again next month.
