Strategic Partnerships Manager - Healthcare Administrative & Operations Data

Company Overview:

We are building Protege to solve the biggest unmet need in AI — getting access to the right training data. The process today is time intensive, incredibly expensive, and often ends in failure. The Protege platform facilitates the secure, efficient, and privacy-centric exchange of AI training data.

Solving AI’s data problem is a generational opportunity. We’re backed by world-class investors and already powering partnerships with some of the most ambitious teams in AI. The company that succeeds will be one of the largest in AI — and in tech.

We’re a lean, fast-moving, high-trust team of builders who are obsessed with velocity and impact. Our culture is built for people who thrive on ambiguity, own outcomes, and want to shape the future of data and AI.

The role

Protege is hiring a Strategic Partnerships Manager - Healthcare Administrative & Operations Data to help customers and prospects access high-value, rights-protected healthcare data for AI training, post-training, evaluation, and workflow development.

You will sit at the intersection of customers, commercial teams, Data Lab, Solutions, Privacy and Legal, Operations, and healthcare data partners.

Your job will be to turn an unmet healthcare data need into a clear sourcing strategy, identify and qualify the right supply paths, and move the opportunity from first conversation through diligence, contracting, activation, and handoff.

This role is focused on administrative and operational data rather than primarily clinical or diagnostic datasets. Relevant workflows may include:

• Eligibility, enrollment, benefits, and member administration

• Claims, billing, payment, revenue cycle, and denial management

• Prior authorization, utilization management, and referral operations

• Scheduling, access, intake, registration, and care coordination

• Provider network, credentialing, staffing, and practice operations

• Contact center, patient/member communications, and service operations

• Pharmacy, lab, imaging, and other healthcare workflow operations

• Health plan, employer, third-party administrator, and population-health administration

• EHR, practice-management, care-management, and revenue-cycle workflow data

This is a generalist role with two connected motions:

• Reactive sourcing: Respond quickly to data requests tied to active customer and prospect opportunities, identifying the closest-aligned healthcare workflow or partner path and driving the work toward a viable commercial outcome.
