Senior Counsel

Changing Healthcare For Good

At Angle Health, we believe the healthcare system should be accessible, transparent, and easy to navigate. As a digital-first, data-driven health plan, we are replacing legacy systems with modern infrastructure to deliver our members the care they need when they need it. If you want to build the future of healthcare, we'd love for you to join us.

The Role

Angle Health's in-house legal and compliance team works to proactively address legal issues, manage regulatory compliance, and provide sound counsel so that Angle Health can continue to move forward quickly in our mission to reinvent access to healthcare.

As a Senior Counsel at Angle Health, you will be responsible for a number of critical legal and regulatory initiatives, ranging from drafting and negotiating contracts, supporting corporate governance initiatives, overseeing contract and legal operations processes, to advising on policies, procedures and compliance issues, as well as assisting in risk management. As a savvy generalist, you will work with key partners across the business and will be a trusted legal advisor to solve the many complex issues that surface in building innovative solutions in an antiquated industry.

We are looking for a candidate who is passionate about healthcare and start-ups and possesses stellar communication, project management, and interpersonal skills. If you're a creative thinker that loves solving difficult problems and navigating uncharted legal and regulatory terrain, this is the role for you.

Core Responsibilities

• Contracting: Draft and negotiate the company’s key contracts with customers, vendors, reinsurance partners, and brokers.

• Privacy: Work cross-functionally and build processes to enhance the company’s privacy and security programs.

• Product counseling: Work cross functionally with Sales, Product and Client Success teams and provide timely and critical guidance to support critical operations

• Governance: Enhance the company’s subsidiaries’ corporate governance processes

• Research: Assess changes to laws, regulations and public policy matters, especially those related to healthcare and health insurance, and advise the team on how such matters and developments may influence business strategies and product development

• Build: Build processes for the legal function, including through the creation and maintenance of playbooks, contract templates, and self-help workflows

• Flexible: Be able and willing to learn anything and tackle any type of legal matter from patents/trademarks to commercial litigation

What We Value

• At least 6+ years of experience at a major law firm or in-house at a scaling start-up, with a strong preference for demonstrable career focus on technology/healthcare startups

• Excited about working in a startup environment and taking on outsized responsibility at an early-stage company

• Ability to operate autonomously with minimal supervision in fast-changing environments and adapt to changing risk tolerances and operational constraints

• Intellectual curiosity—surface level answers don't do it for you. You dive into the details because you're not satisfied until you get to the root cause or attain a fundamental understanding of whatever it is you're working on

• Growth mindset with a willingness to not only learn, but also teach, lead, and follow

• Stellar communication and interpersonal skills

• Strong attention to detail

Nice to Have

• Experience with ERISA and/or employee health insurance benefits
