Product & Experience Designer

Accompany Health is on a mission to give patients with complex needs the dignified, high-quality care they deserve but rarely receive. A primary, behavioral, and social care provider, Accompany Health walks alongside patients for their entire care journey, offering at-home and virtual care, as well as 24/7 support. Partnering with innovative payors, Accompany Health is powered by remarkable care teams, elegant technology, and a commitment to evidence-based practice. 

We build long-term relationships with our patients so they know, without question, that our team is here for them day or night, year after year. We focus on the health outcomes most important to our patients to make it clear that they lead the way.

To achieve our mission, we collaborate with community-based organizations, local providers, and health plans. Led by our empathetic care teams, guided by proven care models, and powered by our own technology, we deliver a level of service that our communities rightfully deserve but rarely receive. 

While our headquarters is in Bethesda, MD, our teams are distributed across the country.  If you’re eager to make a tangible difference in people’s lives, to help correct long-standing disparities in health care, join us. 

We’re looking for a Product & Experience Designer with a demonstrated ability to navigate ambiguity in a fast-paced startup environment, shape products and experiences from discovery through delivery, and embraces ai-enabled ways of working. You’ll work across the end-to-end experience from user research to product and service design to brand experiences, crafting experiences that improve healthcare access and delivery for populations with high healthcare needs.

 

As part of a small, highly collaborative and distributed design team, you’ll have broad ownership and influence. One day you may facilitate a clinician research session, the next refine a complex workflow, evolve our design system, or create branded assets for a marketing campaign. You’ll work closely with talented product, data science, engineering, marketing, and clinical operations teams.
This role is ideal for someone who thrives in a generalist role, while upholding a bar for craft and systems thinking.

Lead end-to-end design for product initiatives from discovery through launch across web and mobile platforms

Translate user and business problems into clear, intuitive workflows and interfaces

Create interactive prototypes and polished visual designs

Partner with cross-functional stakeholders including Product, Engineering, and Operations to balance user needs, technical constraints, and business goals

Conduct interviews and usability testing to evaluate design decisions

You approach your work with humility, recognizing that our system of care will need to learn and adapt to the needs of patients with complex needs

You show deep empathy for the needs of patients, clinicians, support staff, and your colleagues to change the fundamental paradigm of care delivery for marginalized patients

You have a distinctive ability to get a highly cross-functional group of stakeholders – technical and non-technical – on the same page

Your curiosity drives you to be an expert of your product or products and you strive to elevate your peers and the company as a learning organization

You come to well-informed opinions based on gathering the right information and data – but are open to changing your perspective when the situation evolves or new facts emerge

You focus on getting things done in the most effective, efficient manner for the task at hand – rather than following a specific process for its own sake

You have the resilience to dive headfirst into challenging problems – healthcare is complicated and there’s a lot to be fixed

You are excited to work in a startup environment, with the ambiguity and shifting priorities that come with it

3-5 years experience in design

Extremely clear communicator – verbally & in writing
