About Tokaido Health
The Opportunity
What You'll Do
What We're Looking For
Tokaido Health is an AI-native medication navigation platform that helps self-insured employers dramatically reduce the cost of specialty medications and infusions – without disrupting plan design or changing PBMs. We combine infusion site-of-care navigation, biosimilar substitution, and formulary optimization into a single platform, backed by behavioral economics-driven incentives that actually move members to act.
We closed our seed round in April 2026 with backing from Norwest, Primary Ventures, and Next Ventures, and are targeting a January 1, 2027 commercial launch. We’re building a company that is deeply trusted by the employers and consultants we serve – and we're looking for our first sales hire to help make that a reality.
You will be among Tokaido’s first sales hires, working hand-in-hand with the CEO to build our presence in the national large employer market. This is a rare chance to shape GTM strategy at a well-funded seed-stage company with a differentiated product in a high priority space.
You will engage senior HR and finance leaders, partner well with their benefit consultants to navigate the sale and maneuver complex multi-stakeholder buying processes internally and externally. You’ll be in the field operating as an ambassador of the company to tell our story and establish credibility in the national large employer market.

- Partner directly with the CEO on all aspects of go-to-market strategy, pipeline development, and sales execution

- Gather structured market feedback from employer and consultant conversations to inform product roadmap and GTM positioning
- Travel nationally to employer headquarters, industry conferences, and consultant offices to build relationships and advance opportunities

Fit
- Hungry – will grind to build a world class pipeline and stop at nothing to bring a sale over the line
- Humble – genuinely seeks to receive feedback and learn, puts team and customer success ahead of individual credit, and doesn't let personal success override what's best for the customer or the company
- Savvy – Excellent judge of people and circumstances to zero in on actionable opportunities, vocal and opinionated about requirements and what will win the deal, energized by complexity and able to see around corners in a complex market
- Team player – Gracious collaborator beloved by teammates for their deal strategy and preparedness, knows how to deploy internal subject matter experts to maximum effect, embraces winning and losing as a team as opposed to claiming credit
