Sales Engineer

Who we are

Zus is a shared health data platform designed to accelerate healthcare data interoperability by providing easy-to-use patient data via API, embedded components, and direct EHR integrations. Founded in 2021 by Jonathan Bush, co-founder and former CEO of athenahealth, Zus partners with HIEs and other data networks to aggregate patient clinical history and then translates that history into user-friendly information at the point of care. Zus's mission is to catalyze healthcare's greatest inventors by maximizing the value of patient insights - so that they can build up, not around.

• Be a customer advocate—represent their needs and feedback to Product and Engineering
• Ensure successful handoff and continuity from pre-sales to post-sale
• Collaborate cross-functionally to improve our go-to-market motion, collateral, and tools
• Jump in wherever needed to help us move fast, learn quickly, and build something meaningful

• 3+ years of experience in Sales Engineering, Solutions Architecture, or Implementation roles
• Prior experience working directly with RESTful APIs, FHIR/C-CDA/HL7 standards, and EMR data
• Proficiency in SQL and comfort working with healthcare data models
• Deep curiosity about and/or experience in digital health, interoperability, or value-based care
• Excellent communication skills and the ability to clearly explain complex concepts to both technical and non-technical stakeholders
• Empathy for users and a passion for creating a stellar customer experience
• A collaborative, startup-ready mindset—flexible, proactive, and ready to take initiative
• A track record of problem-solving in real-time and staying calm under pressure

We will offer you…

• Competitive compensation that reflects the value you bring to the team a combination of cash and equity

• Robust benefits that include health insurance, wellness benefits, 401k with a match, unlimited PTO

• Opportunity to work alongside a passionate team that is determined to help change the world (and have fun doing it)

Please Note: Research shows that candidates from underrepresented backgrounds often don’t apply unless they meet 100% of the job criteria. While we have worked to consolidate the minimum qualifications for each role, we aren’t looking for someone who checks each box on a page; we’re looking for active learners and people who care about disrupting the current healthcare system with their unique experiences.

We do not conduct interviews by text nor will we send you a job offer unless you've interviewed with multiple people, including the Director of People & Talent, over video interviews. Job scams do exist so please be careful with your personal information.
