Field Medical Assistant - South LA

Field Medical Assistant - South LA

Akido is rebuilding the healthcare experience from the ground up. Through early interventions designed around social determinants of health (SDoH), world-class care focused on chronic disease, and human-centered technology, we believe we can build a healthcare model that allows for all patients to live their fullest lives. We are a fast-growing, impact-focused, Y Combinator company created out of the University of Southern California's D-Health Lab with the idea that empowering government, healthcare, and nonprofit services with population-based data could help usher in a new era of preventive public health. Today we are building a full stack medical network that leverages our predictive capabilities to provide a frictionless experience for both our patients and care providers.

The Opportunity

We're hiring Field Medical Assistants to be fully embedded at community partner locations (access centers, food banks, shelters, supportive housing). You'll serve as the first friendly face for community members, perform clinical tasks (vitals, phlebotomy, POC testing within MA scope), and use Akido's proprietary Scope AI to conduct high-quality, AI-guided medical investigations and documentation. You'll help people feel seen, safe, and supported - then guide them into ongoing Akido care.
