Customer Support Operations Specialist

About Anima

Hey! Shun here, I’m the CEO and co-founder of Anima. Our mission is to deliver precision medicine to everyone in the world in under 24 hours.

My entire life, I’ve been pulling on a thread that’s affected all of us in some way. Millions die every year because their medical problems aren’t treated quickly enough. Hundreds of millions suffer pain, worry and discomfort needlessly because of long waiting times. I trained as a doctor in the NHS and quit out of frustration at seeing countless cases of people dying because they got misdiagnosed or didn’t get the right care plan.

Seeing the problem space at all abstraction levels, including as a doctor and at the HM Treasury, convinced me that the only way to fix healthcare was to build a ‘Care Enablement’ platform that can automate and abstract away work at the clinic, and effectively 10x'ing the capacity of doctors. Doing so would also be the path to a superhuman personalised medicine agent that could go well beyond humans, crunching tens of thousands of low level features at genome and transcriptome level.

At Anima, you’ll help us extend the 3 existing product lines we have, that millions of patients use, and build out new ones at the very cutting edge of healthcare reinforcement learning and agentic AI. Your work will save countless lives.

Role Overview

Anima is hiring a dedicated Customer Support Operations Specialist to become the backbone of our customer experience, ensuring every user interaction is fast, empathetic, and effective.

This role is not a stepping stone into another function. It is for someone who takes genuine pride in being a world-class support operator. You will spend your time leading Anima's support desk, talking to customers via both message and video calls, solving problems, and ensuring nothing slips through the cracks. You’ll help build and refine playbooks that enable us to scale the organisation effectively, codifying best practices.

We are looking for someone who is energised by helping people, loves problem-solving, and is happy to spend hours untangling tricky issues. You will become an expert in our product, understand our customers inside-out, and be a critical bridge between them and our product and engineering teams.

If you thrive in high-responsibility roles, love delighting customers, and want to be the person the whole team trusts to keep support running like clockwork, we would love to hear from you.
