Duet is proving that nurse-practitioner-led care isn't just more accessible, it's better. We help NPs build and scale independent practices in communities too often overlooked by the health system: rural towns, immigrant populations, LGBTQ+ patients, and more. Backed by AI-driven tools that give independent NPs the backing of a much bigger system, our network of 100+ practices covering 400,000 annual visits has driven a 30% increase in preventative visits and a 35% drop in hospitalizations, the clearest sign yet that localized NP-led care means better outcomes.
We're a well-funded, early-stage company led by seasoned entrepreneurs and nurse practitioners, and backed by investors including Lerer Hippeau and Kairos.
Why Duet, Why NowIndependent primary care is disappearing, swallowed by hospital systems and private equity roll-ups, often pulling out of the communities that need it most. But 31 states now support autonomous NP practice, and the results back up what we've long believed. We built the first value-based care contracts for NPs with major payors, taking on real financial risk for outcomes. In our anchor market in New Hampshire, our network outperformed the state on total cost of care by 19%, proof that a solo NP in an underserved area can outperform a system ten times their size and get rewarded for it.
Role Overview
We're hiring a Chief of Staff to work directly with the CEO and leadership team. We’re looking for a high-agency, scrappy operator who wants to own meaningful work from day one and hack solutions in a very fast-moving startup.
You'll spend your time on four areas: driving key external relationships forward, building repeatable content and processes using data and AI, helping the team stay organized and accountable, and picking up special projects that don’t have a clear home.
What You’ll Do
Stakeholder Relationships
Track and advance key external relationships, including payors, prospects, and channel partners, making sure follow-ups happen and conversations don't stall
Represent Duet directly in calls, emails, and meetings to move things forward without always needing the CEO in the room
Own the follow-through on partnership conversations: next steps, open questions, and the ongoing relationship-building that keeps deals progressing
Content, Data, and Communications
Build repeatable materials for different audiences — a payor deck reads differently than a partner proposal or a team memo, and you'll know the difference
Pull data from our CRM, databases, and internal analytics stack to answer questions and support key decisions
Use AI tools to automate repetitive reporting tasks, clean up data outputs, and accelerate the production of analysis and summaries
Support the CEO on company updates, customer communications, and external presentations
Operations and Rhythm
Own the weekly leadership team meeting: agenda, facilitation, and follow-through on action items
Help drive our OKR process each quarter — setting, tracking, and keeping the team accountable
Maintain our internal planning calendar: QBRs, offsites, all-hands
Special Projects
Lead time-sensitive projects that fall outside any single team's scope
Research new opportunities, competitive dynamics, or strategic questions and come back with a clear point of view
Support recruiting, team culture initiatives, and other priorities as we continue to grow
What we’re looking for
3–5 years of experience in a high-performance environment — top tier consulting, banking, or an early stage startup (Seed through Series B)
Exceptional relationship builder, knowing how to context switch and develop trust
Organized and reliable — you track what you commit to and close loops without being asked
AI-native in your workflow; you actively use tools like Claude or ChatGPT every day
Low ego, high ownership; you're comfortable with unglamorous work
Comfortable working with financial data and excel modeling without needing to rely on AI
Healthtech experience is a plus, not a requirement
This role is in-office in NYC.
Salary range: $140,000-170,000 per year + equity
Skills Required
- 3-5 years of experience in a high-performance environment
- Exceptional relationship builder
- Organized and reliable
- AI-native in your workflow
- Comfortable working with financial data and excel modeling
What We Do
Duet is a healthcare technology company focused on bringing exceptional caregivers into the senior home care industry and managing health plan and payor relationships.
