**🚀 A little about Rupa - The future is personalized, root-
cause[healthcare](http://healthcare.starting/).**
Starting with lab testing, **[Rupa](http://rupahealth.com/)** is bringing
tools and resources to trailblazing functional medicine practitioners who are
practicing medicine in a way that truly helps people get well.
Root cause medicine is revolutionizing healthcare, empowering providers and
patients to go beyond treating symptoms and instead approach complex, chronic
health conditions with a deep understanding of a personalized, root cause. At
Rupa, we are building the infrastructure to make this root-cause approach the
standard of care for every person on the planet.🌎 The personalized medicine
market is expected to reach ~$800B by 2028, providing a huge opportunity for
us as a first mover in this space. With a clear mission, strong financial
backing and explosive growth over the past 3 years, our future success depends
on our ability to operate cohesively from a clear, forward-looking financial
plan.
Rupa turns an archaic 15 hour-a-week process into a delightful 15 min task for
practitioners ordering lab testing for their patients. Lab testing is the key
to a more personalized and holistic approach to medicine, and Rupa is paving
the way with critical infrastructure for this next generation of healthcare.
Through Rupa, practitioners can order specialty testing, such as DNA testing,
microbiome testing, advanced fertility and hormone testing, blood labs, and
more.

**🤑 The Role - A day in the life of a Finance & Accounting Manager at Rupa
Health**
Imagine… You wake up and brew yourself a steaming cup of coffee (or perhaps a
soothing herbal tea).
This is it - today is the **Annual Budget Review**.
It’s not just about the numbers on the spreadsheet; this is the culmination of
meticulous accounting, in-depth analysis, and continuous iteration. You’ve
tracked and categorized every dollar that Rupa has spent, worked with each
department on their hiring targets and expense forecasts, and analyzed the
company’s bottom line and cash runway to ensure we are set up for success.
Today is the day you present your budget to the executive team and walk
through multiple planning scenarios. Your command of our financial data - past
performance and future projections alike - allows you to identify trends and
share insights with confidence. Your input here helps build the alignment
needed to advance Rupa’s goals.
This is just another day at the office for you.
Month-end close? Revenue modeling? Audit support? Expense controls and
approvals?
You make managing Rupa Health’s finances look easy.

finance like the back of your hand. You know how to build and interpret
financial statements, balance the books, and measure the pulse of the
company's financial health. You're not just a numbers person; you're a
strategic thinker who can translate financial data into actionable insights.
You know the importance of compliance with financial regulations, and you work
tirelessly to ensure Rupa Health adheres to them. You're the go-to person for
billing and expense guidance, and your ability to communicate complex
financial concepts in simple terms sets you apart.

seamlessly with other departments, aligning operational strategies with
broader financial goals. Whether it's syncing with marketing to accurately
account for our partnerships or working with the product team on measuring
feature ROI, you're the linchpin that keeps Rupa Health's finance and
accounting operations running smoothly.
It’s not easy, but you make it look easy because, quite frankly, you might
just be the greatest Finance & Accounting Manager that the world of Root Cause
Medicine has ever seen. And this is your opportunity to do some of the most
important work of your career.
**Because you are the guardian,** protecting Rupa Health's financial well-
being as it ushers in a new era of Root Cause Medicine.
