Conversational Designer

WE'RE LUMA HEALTH.

Needing healthcare can be hard — getting care shouldn’t be.

We built Luma Health because we are all patients. We believe it should be easy to see and connect with our doctor. To get the care we need, when we need it.

So, we’ve created solutions to fix this problem. Our technology makes messaging easier, scheduling appointments more efficient, and it modernizes care delivery from beginning to end.

The Role: Conversational Designer 

The Product Design team at Luma Health owns the end-to-end experience for both healthcare staff and patients. Our product experience is our competitive edge. We tackle the messy realities of healthcare head-on, designing across fragmented systems and broken workflows to create something revolutionary.

As a Conversational Designer, you'll craft the voice and personality of our AI agents, designing text and voice experiences that guide patients through their healthcare journey and help staff navigate complex workflows. You'll design multi-turn dialogues that handle appointment scheduling, insurance verification, and patient needs while maintaining HIPAA compliance and earning user trust. Your conversations will feel natural and human while handling the nuanced, high-stakes realities of healthcare communication.

We're data-driven strategists who aren't afraid to get our hands dirty. Our team thrives on collaboration, pushes technological boundaries, and obsesses over the details that make healthcare work better. If you want to design conversational experiences that bridge the gap between innovation and real-world impact, this is the place for you!

What YOU will do at Luma Health

• Design end-to-end conversational experiences for both voice and text-based AI agents across patient-facing products
