Director of Compliance

Director of Compliance ABOUT SOLACE Healthcare in the U.S. is fundamentally broken. The system is so complex that 88% of U.S. adults do not have the health literacy necessary to navigate it without help. Solace cuts through the red tape of healthcare by pairing patients with expert advocates and giving them the tools to make better decisions—and get better outcomes. We're a Series C startup, founded in 2022 and backed by Inspired Capital, Craft Ventures, Torch Capital, Menlo Ventures, Signalfire, and IVP. Our U.S. based team is lean, mission-driven, and growing quickly. Solace isn't a place to coast. We're here to redefine healthcare—and that demands urgency, precision, and heart. If you're looking to stretch yourself, sharpen your edge, and do the best work of your life alongside a team that cares deeply, you're in the right place. We’re intense, and we like it that way.

ABOUT THE ROLE As the Director of Compliance at Solace, you will build and own the systems that ensure we can deliver high-trust, high-impact patient advocacy at scale. Solace operates at the center of one of the most complex systems in the country, healthcare. We support patients navigating diagnoses, insurance battles, and care coordination across all 50 states, often at their most vulnerable moments. Compliance is not a back-office function here, it is core to how we earn and maintain trust with patients, advocates, and partners. You will define how Solace operates within healthcare regulations while enabling the speed and ownership that make our advocates effective. You’ll take ambiguous, fragmented requirements across federal programs (including Medicare), state regulations, and privacy laws, and turn them into systems the company can actually run on. You’re a builder who knows how to hold a high bar without becoming a bottleneck. You understand that the goal isn’t just to be compliant, it’s to build a system that works for patients. This role will start as an individual contributor and evolve into building and leading a team. You will report directly to the CEO. What You’ll Do You will own compliance end-to-end. - Build the Compliance Engine: Design and implement Solace’s compliance program across policies, controls, training, monitoring, and reporting built for a fast-moving, multi-state healthcare platform. - Translate Regulation into Execution: Turn complex requirements (HIPAA, Medicare, state-level rules, payer dynamics) into clear, actionable processes that operators and advocates can follow. - Own Marketplace Integrity: Define how Solace ensures its network of independent advocates operates safely, consistently, and in alignment with regulatory and ethical standards — without losing what makes them effective. - Embed Compliance into the Product: Partner with Product and Operations to ensure compliance is built into workflows like advocate matching, patient communication, documentation, and claims support. - Protect Patient Trust: Establish standards for privacy, data handling, and communication that reflect the reality of patients sharing highly sensitive information during critical moments. - Risk Identification & Control Design: Identify where things can break, across care coordination, insurance support, and patient interactions, and implement pragmatic controls that reduce risk without slowing down execution. - Audits & Investigations: Lead audits (internal and external), manage compliance reviews tied to Medicare and payer programs, and oversee ...
