A Different Approach to Building Healthcare Technology
At Midstream, we are building software to solve the hardest problems in healthcare business operations and administration. Weâre developing a data platform to bring true AI-native data operations to core healthcare business functions, from supply chain to managed care to operations, enabling large health systems to massively reduce the administrative burden and shift resources back to patient care.
We are a seasoned founding team, backed by a16z as well as some of healthcare's most well known angel and strategic investors.
We're looking for a founding Data Analyst whoâs ready to roll up their sleeves, lean into messy data, communicate clearly, and help shape the foundation of a company solving hard, real-world problems.
This is a role for someone with strong analytical skills, sharp instincts, and a deep curiosityâespecially about how emerging tools like generative AI can change the game.
What Youâll Do
Analyze complex operational, financial, and legal data to unlock insights that matter
Partner cross-functionally with teams across operations, product, engineering, and leadershipâto uncover value for health systems and directly influence the direction of the software weâre building through your insights
Translate your analysis into clear, actionable takeaways âwhether through a quick write-up, chart, spreadsheet, or conversation
Serve as a customer-facing partner in certain meetingsâprofessionalism and clarity are essential
Travel as-needed for customer work or team offsites
Explore and experiment with ways generative AI can streamline workflows âfrom automating repetitive tasks to enhancing analysis and communication
What Youâll Bring
Weâre looking for someone sharp, curious, and driven. You donât need a specific pedigreeâbut hereâs what we expect :
1â3 years of experience working directly with data in a business, healthcare, consulting, or finance context
Excel fluency is a must âyou should be confident modeling, manipulating, and visualizing data
SQL experience is a plus, but not required
Strong communicator : you explain complex analysis in simple, crisp languageâverbally and in writing
Customer-ready professionalismâyou can represent the company well in meetings when needed
Familiarity with financial documents, legal contracts , or structured / unstructured business data
Proven ability to translate complex data into simple, actionable insights
Experience in or exposure to the healthcare industry is preferred
An entrepreneurial mindset : resourceful, adaptable, and excited to build from zero
Above all, a curious and hungry attitude âyou love to ask âwhy,â learn quickly, and go deep on tough problems
A natural inclination to experiment with new tools , especially around AI-powered workflows (you donât need deep experience in GenAIâbut you should be excited about its potential)
Comfortable with ambiguity, fast-moving environments, and problem-solving without a roadmap
Why Join Us?
Shape the foundation of an ambitious healthcare company from day one
Work alongside experienced founders and a tight-knit, mission-driven team
Tackle meaningful, real-world problems with a data-first lens
Explore new techâincluding GenAIâand drive innovation from within

Strong culture of trust, rigor, and candor
Youâll thrive here if youâre :
Energized by solving hard problems
Curious about how systems workâand how to make them better
Motivated by impact, not titles
Always asking âHow can we do this smarter?â
Ready to bring data, insight, and clarity to every conversation
Letâs build something better. Together.
If this sounds like your kind of challenge, weâd love to hear from you.
