Dollar For seeks an experienced tech and product leader to guide the next phase of our growth. This role is for a leader, designer, and builder ready to guide our healthcare non-profit to 6x our current capacity by using ethical AI, optimizing our UX, and streamlining internal processes to eliminate $1 billion in medical debt per year by 2028.

Most hospitals offer financial assistance programs that discount or forgive bills for patients based on income. Unfortunately, patients don’t always know about these programs or struggle to navigate them. Dollar For makes these charity care programs known, easy, and fair. We help patients check their eligibility for financial assistance, prepare and submit applications, and eliminate medical bills. Our model combines custom-built technology with trained patient advocates (PAs) to secure hospital bill forgiveness. Our services are completely free—no strings attached.

Since 2021, Dollar For has scaled from 100 patients served annually to nearly 20,000 patients in 2025 through a technology-enabled, labor-intensive model. Now, Dollar For has received meaningful grant funding to execute an AI-focused technical development plan for scale—while preserving the trust, accuracy, and human oversight that patients and hospitals require and have come to expect from Dollar For.

This role will lead the development and integration of key AI tools into our existing tech stack, while also optimizing our existing tools to improve the patient experience and outcomes. In partnership with our current 2-person tech team and consulting partners, you will lead, design, and build systems that meet our scale goal.

The successful candidate will have 10 years of experience leading roadmaps in partnership with staff and consultants, while also maintaining a desire to work directly in codebases to develop new features and tools. Experience building internal operational tools, and separately, integrating AI into production environments is a plus. They will have a strong sense of humility and team collaboration and a deep passion for healthcare affordability, economic justice, or systems reform.

We seek to build a team of employees who want opportunities to grow and stretch with us over time. We commit to being a place you truly enjoy working with a culture where everyone celebrates the successes, gives and receives supportive feedback, and works together to solve problems and help patients.
