About this role

🧠 About Legion Health

At Legion Health, we believe everyone deserves fast, affordable, and effective mental health care, and we’re on a mission to deliver that at scale.

Legion Health is building a modern clinic, completely AI-native, where our human psychiatrists and AI agents work together to provide world-class care covered by insurance directly to our patients. We combine rich patient data, production AI, and humans-in-the-loop to automate the hardest parts of healthcare operations and deliver measurably better care within our own vertically-integrated sandbox. With 60% of all Texans (18M Americans) able to access Legion via their insurance (most for under $30), our Texas beachhead puts us on pace to 10× next year with a national rollout. Today, with $3M+ ARR, we're aggressively expanding.

✅ Responsibilities and Deliverables

  • Owning multi-channel growth execution, including performance marketing (Google, Meta), paid + organic social, healthcare directories (Zocdoc, Psychology Today), lifecycle messaging (email, SMS), referrals, partnerships, SEO, and content.

  • Running rigorous analytics and experimentation, using PostHog and SQL-friendly tools to analyze funnels, define success metrics, and run A/B tests across channels and product surfaces.

  • Improving conversion and patient experience, optimizing landing pages, onboarding flows, scheduling, and lifecycle touchpoints.

  • Turning insights into action, synthesizing data, user interviews, and qualitative feedback into clear, prioritized growth decisions.

  • Partnering cross-functionally with product, engineering, design, and clinical operations to remove friction while maintaining regulatory compliance and care quality.

  • Building scalable playbooks for growth channels that can be repeated, expanded, and eventually handed off as the company scales.

🏆 You’ll Be Successful If You…

  • Consistently identify and ship experiments that meaningfully improve patient acquisition, activation, and retention metrics.

  • Build a clear, data-driven understanding of Legion Health’s growth funnels and use it to prioritize ruthlessly and move fast.

  • Turn ambiguous problems into structured experiments and deliver measurable results.

  • Improve conversion across key patient journeys (landing → booking → first visit → retention).

  • Earn trust across teams by pairing strong analytical thinking with excellent communication and execution.

  • Help Legion Health scale growth systems that are both high-impact and operationally sound in a regulated healthcare environment.

🧰 Ideal Background and Skills

  • 2–5+ years of experience in growth, consulting, product strategy, marketing, or a similar operator role.

  • Hands-on experience owning or contributing meaningfully to multiple acquisition channels (paid social, SEM, directories, lifecycle comms, referrals, partnerships, SEO, etc.).

  • Strong analytical ability, including funnel analysis, experimentation design, and data storytelling, ideally using tools like PostHog and basic SQL.

  • A track record of moving quickly in ambiguous environments, prioritizing effectively, and learning through execution.

  • Clear written and verbal communication skills and a high bar for quality.

  • A strong ownership mindset with the ability to operate autonomously in a fast-moving startup.

💰 Compensation & Benefits

  • Salary: $89K – $172K (based on experience)

  • Early-Stage Equity: 0.1% – 0.4%

  • Health Insurance: Medical, dental, and vision benefits
