The Role We are hiring our first dedicated Founding GTM Lead to work closely with leadership to build our B2B GTM motion. Reporting to Neil Parikh, you will be both a strategic partner and boots on the ground executor; defining our strategy for how we build credibility and rapport with payers and employers, then doing full execution to close those accounts. At this stage, every B2B conversation is also a product conversation, a vision sale, and a PMF decision. Your job is to be the strategist and to build and run the engine underneath this motion. You'll turn a handful of exploratory conversations into a high-volume, well-managed pipeline across payers, employers, health systems, and governments; keep our most important deals alive between conversations; and arm
the team with the materials that make a first-of-its-kind purchase feel safe. Our most important goal is to get our first enterprise customers and make sure we build strong relationships that can grow for the future. Key
responsibilities Partner with founders (Neil & Daniel) on commercial strategy: channel prioritization, pricing and packaging, and how we build credibility and demonstrate clinical and economic value to payers and employers. Own pipeline and deal management from first meeting through signed contract: scheduling, diligence, security reviews, legal coordination, commitment tracking, and follow-ups that keep deals alive between conversations. Stand up our GTM infrastructure: implement a lightweight CRM and the pipeline tracking and reporting that give leadership an accurate view of the funnel. Drive B2B marketing and sales enablement: build the decks, one-pagers, case studies, and ROI models that help a Fortune 100
