About the Company

Our client is a fast-growing consumer biotech and digital health company focused on expanding access to next-generation healthcare solutions. They operate at the intersection of technology, clinical operations, and patient experience, using modern systems to improve healthcare delivery at scale. The company is highly mission-driven and operates in a fast-paced, execution-focused environment.

Role Overview

The Customer Service Associate is a frontline, patient-facing CX role responsible for delivering high-quality customer support across live chat, email, and occasional phone interactions. This role focuses on resolving customer issues end-to-end, navigating complex workflows, and owning patient concerns through to resolution.
