What are the responsibilities and job description for the Head of Design position at AIX Ventures?

Healthcare providers go into medicine to care for people, but end up losing valuable time each day to admin work and other workplace challenges. Time that could otherwise be spent helping patients.

Today, we support over 250,000 clinicians across hundreds of care sites around the country. And we’re only just getting started : Healthcare’s watershed moment for AI-powered transformation is here – so join us in creating the technology to power healthcare!
