Clinical Operations Director

United States - Remote

About Sunrise Group

Sunrise Group is building the future of sleep health by combining breakthrough technology with expert care. We started in 2015 with a straightforward idea: sleep diagnosis should happen in the comfort of your own home, not in a hospital. To make that possible, we created a first-of-its-kind chin sensor, carefully validated through clinical research, reviewed by leading sleep experts, and cleared by the FDA.

Since then, Sunrise Group has grown from a single innovation into a complete sleep health company. We now design advanced diagnostic and treatment solutions, and we deliver care directly to patients through Dreem Health, our digital sleep clinic. By serving patients in all 50 states with reimbursed care, we are making sleep treatment more accessible, more personal, and much simpler than it has ever been.

Your Opportunity

We are seeking a  Clinical Operations Director to lead and scale the operational engine behind our rapidly growing clinical business.

Reporting directly to the Chief Operating Officer, this executive leader will own the quality, efficiency, scalability, and financial performance of clinical operations across the organization. This is not a build-from-scratch role—it is a scale-and-optimize leadership opportunity focused on strengthening what works, improving what does not, and building the operational infrastructure required to support significant growth over the next several years.

As a key member of the operations leadership team, the Clinical Operations Director will oversee day-to-day performance of our clinical operations, care coordination, conversion funnel from referral to treatment, and clinical logistics while partnering closely with Medical Directors, Legal & Compliance, Managed Care Contracting, Revenue Cycle Management, Product, Technology, and Finance.

This leader will translate business objectives into operational execution, ensuring that clinical operations can support increasing patient volume while maintaining exceptional patient outcomes, provider satisfaction, operational excellence, and financial performance.

At Sunrise Group, we work on a problem that affects millions: poor sleep and untreated sleep disorders. Our mission is to make diagnosis and care easier to access, and we’re proud of the experience we provide to patients. We feel responsible for making it better every day. If you’re looking for the autonomy to take ownership of your work, make an impact, and be part of a team where ideas move fast and everyone has a voice -  this role is for you!

    • Translate revenue goals and growth targets into operational requirements, staffing plans, and capacity forecasts.
    • Develop operational models supporting new markets and service offerings.
    • Build and maintain reporting frameworks that provide visibility into performance across all operational functions.

Leadership Responsibilities

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
