Description

Why you should join us Forus is a generational opportunity to rethink how we bring new therapies to market, and our path to doing so is significantly de-risked – we have: Exponential organic growth: We have product-market fit and are growing rapidly. Forus supports thousands of new patients every day, is spreading with doctors through word-of-mouth, and works with the largest biopharma companies in the world. An AI-first business model: Our approach is distinctly enabled by AI, but our business gets stronger (not commoditized) as foundation models improve. We are building durability through two-sided network effects that compound over time. Top tier investors: With the traction to support conviction in our model, we raised significant funding from top investors (Thrive Capital, General Catalyst, and Accel) to build an exceptional team of engineers and operators. Our number one priority is scaling to market demand. We are looking for individuals who are high horsepower, high throughput, and hyper resourceful to help us increase capacity and grow. We move fast and need to move faster. All full-time roles are in person in New York. You can learn more about working with us in the last section of this page. About the role As a member of the Founder’s Office, you will work directly with the CEO on our highest priority opportunities and challenges. You will help drive initiatives that are critical to the company’s growth and long-term success, spanning areas such as new products, new specialties, strategic partnerships, recruiting, operations, and company-building. This role is designed for people who want broad exposure to how a high-growth company is built and scaled. You will develop context across every major function of the business, move between strategic thinking and hands-on execution, and take ownership of important problems from initial exploration through implementation and results. This is a demanding role, with a high level of autonomy and responsibility. You will be expected to "act like an owner" and commit yourself to Forus' success. If you are low-ego, hungry to learn, and excited about intense, impactful work that drives both company growth and accelerated career progression, we want to hear from you. If you join, you will: Own high-priority initiatives from initial concept through execution and measurable outcomes Work directly with the CEO and leadership team to drive the company’s most important priorities and ensure they actually happen Launch and scale new products, partnerships, specialties, functions, and other strategic initiatives across the business Create the processes, operating mechanisms, and systems that help the company scale more effectively Step into high-leverage problems wherever they emerge, developing the context and expertise needed to drive them forward We’ll be most excited if you have: Have a track record of taking ownership and driving outcomes in demanding environments, whether as a founder, 0 -> 1 operator, investor, product manager, or in another high-performance role Comfort operating without a playbook and naturally look for ways to use technology, data, and AI to solve problems and move faster Strong written and verbal communication that allows you to be an effective participant in both internal debates and external relationships Track record of moving quickly, finding shortcuts, and going to unreasonable lengths to deliver on goals High NPS with your former teammates This is a list of ideal qualifications for this position. If you don't meet every single one of them, you should still consider applying! We’re excited to work with people from underrepresented backgrounds, and we encourage people from all backgrounds to apply. Working with us Forus is based in New York, with our full team working out of a beautiful and spacious office in SoHo. We run as a high-trust environment with high autonomy, which requires that everyone is fully competent and operates in line with our principles: Do the math. Be rigorous, assume nothing. Break problems down and reason from the ground up. Expand the solution space. Be resourceful and audacious. Resist false constraints and push beyond the obvious before committing. Spit it out. Speak directly, invite critique, avoid equivocation. We want right answers, not comfortable ones. Raise the bar together. Hold a high standard for execution, push each other directly, and win as a team. We provide competitive compensation with meaningful equity (for full-time employees). Everyone who joins early will be a major contributor to our success, and we reflect this through ownership and pay. We also provide rich benefits to ensure you can focus on creating impact (for full-time employees): Fully covered medical, vision, and dental insurance. Memberships for One Medical, Talkspace, Teladoc, and Kindbody. Unlimited paid time off (PTO) and 16 weeks of parental leave. 401K plan setup, FSA option, commuter benefits, and DashPass. Lunch at the office every day and Dinner at the office after 7 pm. Our salary ranges are based on paying competitively for our company’s size and industry, and are one part of the total compensation package that also includes equity, benefits, and other opportunities at Forus (for full-time employees). Individual pay decisions are ultimately based on a number of factors, including qualifications for the role, experience level, skillset, geography, and balancing internal equity.
