The role

We are hiring our first General Counsel. You'll be an executive on our leadership team, reporting to Matt, and you'll own every legal question that touches how Vye partners with providers, serves patients, works with vendors and payers, and grows as a company.

Our business model lives at the intersection of healthcare regulation and commercial innovation: a revenue-share platform, an MSO and affiliated professional corporation structure, multi-state telehealth, and the costs and responsibilities of launching a practice. You'll design the legal architecture that lets us move fast inside those lines, manage outside counsel deliberately, and turn legal work into templates, playbooks, and tooling the whole team can use.

How we work

We're intentionally small and intentionally AI-native. We work with Cooley as outside counsel, track work in Linear, and use Claude across every workflow. You'll build an AI-assisted legal function: contract review, clause libraries, and self-serve agreements that keep you focused on the highest-judgment calls.

What you’ll own

Your key results:

  • Time to signed agreements with providers, partners, and vendors
  • Legal and regulatory risk managed, with no material exposure
  • Outside counsel spend and leverage

You're an owner and an executive. Your ultimate KR is Vye Equity Value.

The work behind those results:

  • Provider agreements: Own the Provider Participation Agreement, Provider Terms of Service, and self-serve agreements. Evolve term length, termination, non-solicitation, tail coverage, and marketing advance terms as we move to a product-led model.
  • Corporate structure and healthcare regulatory: Own our MSO and professional corporation structure, corporate practice of medicine, fee-splitting, Anti-Kickback and Stark analysis, and multi-state expansion, in partnership with our Compliance Lead.
  • Commercial contracts: Negotiate vendor agreements (labs, pharmacies, clinical infrastructure, credentialing, payments), payer contracts, data agreements, and health system, employer, and channel partnerships.
  • Patient-facing terms: Membership agreements, consents, privacy policy, telehealth terms, and marketing terms.
  • Corporate and financing: Board matters, equity in partnership with our Head of People, fundraising diligence, and structures for financing provider marketing.
  • Employment and disputes: Partner with our Head of People on employment matters and manage any disputes or regulatory inquiries.
  • Legal at scale: Build templates, playbooks, and AI-assisted review so the team can self-serve routine legal work.

What we’re looking for

  • Healthcare legal depth: JD and active bar membership, with 8+ years across healthcare regulatory and transactional work.
  • Firm training and in-house judgment: Experience at a top firm and in-house at a high-growth healthtech, telehealth, or provider services company.
  • Structuring expertise: You've built or advised on MSO and professional corporation structures and multi-state telehealth.
  • Commercial negotiator: You close complex partnership, payer, and vendor deals quickly and fairly.
  • Pragmatic partner: You give clear, risk-calibrated answers and help the team find the path to yes.
  • AI at the core: You use AI to scale yourself and want to build a legal function that runs on it.
  • Nice to have: Prior first legal hire or General Counsel at a startup; payer contracting; privacy and data rights.

About Vye Health

Vye Health is an AI-native healthcare company that gives medical providers the infrastructure, tools, and support to launch, run, and grow a private practice with no upfront cost.

How Vye supports practices

Running a private practice involves clinical work and business operations. Our team builds the tools and support described below.

  • Vye manages licensing, credentialing, malpractice insurance, and your website, and payer contracts if you want them.
  • Vye runs bookings, billing, coding, denials, and compliance.
  • Vye runs patient acquisition for your practice: the practice website, SEO, directory listings, and Google and Meta ads on a budget you set.

Our open roles help build and run this support for practices.

The Vye platform

Vye charges $0 upfront, and no SaaS or monthly fee.

  • Vye Core: Vye Core is an EHR and practice platform: scheduling, charting, telehealth, a patient app and billing in one place, with Vye Orders included.
  • Vye Orders: Vye Orders lets you order labs, imaging, sleep studies and other specialist referrals, prescriptions including compounded medications, and supplements from one place, and your patients use one login.
  • Vye Growth: Vye Growth brings your practice website, search, ads and listings into one place, with reviews coming, and works with the EHR you already use.

Vye Core, Vye Orders and Vye Growth open to practices this fall.

The team

Our leadership team combines a CEO who helped scale Datavant from an early-stage startup to a multi-billion dollar company, a Head of Engineering with an aeronautical engineering degree from MIT, a Head of People who has built and scaled technical teams at Airbnb and Twitter, and a Yale-trained, dual board certified Chief Medical Officer.

  • Matt Vail, Co-Founder & CEO
  • Alan Wang, Co-Founder & Head of Engineering
  • Angie Zhou, Co-Founder & Head of People
  • Nikki Bundy, Chief Medical Officer
  • Diana Yao, Customer Success Lead
  • Founding Engineers: Jan Sokol, Raine Zhong, Yu Zhou, Isha Madhurendra, Kevin Gao, Emma Gan, Russell Castro, Adriana Gutierrez
  • Founding Product Designers: Puka Novero, Jenn Wong

Company background

  • Founded October 2025; backed by SignalFire and Valtruis
  • Vye Health helps providers launch, run, and grow private practices.

What we offer

  • Meaningful early equity in a well-positioned health-tech company
  • A competitive base salary of $315,000 to $369,000 USD, commensurate with experience, along with meaningful equity and benefits. We benchmark against San Francisco market rates.
  • Fully remote, async-friendly culture with regular video syncs, plus an optional office in San Francisco
  • Quarterly in-person offsites with the entire team
  • Direct collaboration with founders and a chance to shape the company from the ground up

Why now

The convergence of agentic AI and a deeply broken healthcare system makes this the exact right moment. We're not incrementally improving an existing product. We're rebuilding the entire infrastructure of how a practice runs from the ground up. The scope of what we're doing is only now possible, and the people who help build it will have shaped something that meaningfully improves how clinicians practice medicine and how patients receive care.

Our values

We are an Olympic sports team, not a family. We optimize for high performance, radical candor, speed, and continuous improvement.

  1. Have Fun! Life is too short not to enjoy your work.
  2. Be an Owner: Fewer rules and more responsibilities. Think big and deliver meaningful impact.
  3. Understand Why: Be curious. Seek context. Get to the root cause.
  4. Maximize Growth: Growth over comfort. Invent, simplify, and bias for action.
  5. Obsess Over Customers: Understand customers deeply and build what truly improves their lives.
