Why we need you

Our Test Kit Operations team ensures that Junction's at-home testing programs launch successfully and operate reliably at scale. Over the past year, test kit volume on our platform has grown 6x, and every program requires coordination across customers, laboratories, fulfillment partners, and internal teams to ensure test kits are delivered, samples are processed, and customers have a seamless testing experience.

As Junction grows, we’re launching more testing programs, supporting more customers, and expanding our network of operational partners. We’re looking for a Test Kit Operations Associate who can take ownership of the operational execution behind these programs.

Once a sale closes, you'll own the launch execution and implementation for every new customer. You're essential in setting our test kit customers up for long-term success.

This role is ideal for someone who enjoys owning complex workflows, bringing structure to moving pieces, and solving operational problems in a fast-growing healthcare environment.

What you'll be doing

• Own the operational execution of new customer test kit launches, ensuring milestones are tracked, dependencies are managed, and programs are ready for successful go-live
• Coordinate directly with customers to manage launch activities, follow up on open items, and ensure operational requirements are completed on time
• Partner with laboratory providers, fulfillment partners, and internal teams to coordinate workflows and keep launches moving
• Own post-launch monitoring of test kit programs, tracking operational performance and identifying opportunities or issues early
• Monitor key metrics across inventory availability, fulfillment accuracy, shipping timelines, sample processing, turnaround times, and customer experience
• Investigate operational issues, identify root causes, and work with laboratory and 3PL partners to drive resolution
• Maintain operational dashboards, trackers, and reporting to provide visibility into program health and performance
• Identify recurring issues and help implement process improvements
• Build strong working relationships with customers, laboratory partners, and fulfillment providers
• Document workflows, processes, and best practices

What we're looking for

• Operations experience: 3+ years in operations, healthcare operations, logistics, supply chain, customer operations, implementation, or similar
• Ownership mindset: drives things to the finish line without needing constant direction
• Launch and project execution: coordinating launches, implementations, or operational programs
