About This Role
As VP of Sales for the malnutrition and coding automation solution, you will own the full sales cycle for a new business line, from pipeline generation to contract execution.

- Deep understanding of inpatient workflows, CDI, coding, and quality measures like MCC capture, allowing you to speak credibly with clinical and revenue cycle leaders.
- Experience in early-stage or new product launches, comfortable with ambiguity and building repeatable sales motions from scratch.
- Strong cross-functional collaboration skills, able to work closely with product and marketing to shape go-to-market strategy.
