Role Overview

Manta is building the operational backbone for prior authorization management in ophthalmology. As our Operations & Client Delivery Manager, you will own the day-to-day execution and continuous improvement of Manta’s clinical operations — ensuring that surgical and injection workflows run reliably, teams are supported, clients are delighted, and product development stays grounded in real operational needs.

This is a hybrid role spanning operations leadership, client implementation, capacity planning, quality management, and product feedback loops. You’ll manage our growing Philippines-based operations team, partner directly with the product team on workflow design and feature requirements, and serve as the escalation point for complex cases and client communication.

This is a hands-on builder role in an early-stage company — ideal for someone who thrives in ambiguity, enjoys designing systems from scratch, and knows how to turn messy real-world processes into clean, scalable operations.

Key Responsibilities

Operations Leadership

- Manage and support the Philippines-based operations team responsible for eligibility checks, prior authorization processing, and case follow-up
- Define and maintain daily work queues and processing workflows in Manta
- Establish clear ownership, escalation paths, and quality standards across teams
- Provide coaching, training, and performance feedback to team members
- Serve as the primary escalation point for complex or high-risk cases

Client Delivery & Implementation

- Lead onboarding and rollout of new provider practices onto the Manta platform
- Translate client-specific workflows into Manta configuration and operating procedures
- Act as primary point of contact for operational questions from provider offices
- Coordinate communication on ineligible cases, denied authorizations, and schedule changes
- Build trusted client relationships through reliability and transparency

Capacity & SLA Management





- Forecast upcoming workload based on scheduled procedures and renewal cycles
- Monitor daily and monthly processing volumes and backlog risk
- Define and track SLAs (eligibility turnaround, PA submission timing, approval rates)
- Identify when additional staffing or process changes are needed
- Report operational performance trends to leadership

Quality & Risk Management

- Implement audit and exception views to catch missed steps or aging cases
- Ensure data consistency between Manta and provider EHR systems
- Reduce manual QA burden through process design and automation
- Lead root-cause analysis on errors or client-impacting issues

Product Partnership

- Translate frontline operational pain points into product requirements
- Partner with product and engineering on feature prioritization
- Test and validate new workflow features before deployment
- Help design automation rules for eligibility, PA discovery, and renewals
- Ensure product changes improve real operational outcomes

- Ability to balance hands-on execution with system-level thinking

Traits That Will Thrive Here

- Systems thinker who naturally sees bottlenecks and builds structure
- Calm under pressure and confident making judgment calls
- Enjoys building from scratch more than inheriting polished systems
- Clear, concise communicator across clinical, technical, and operational worlds
- Deep ownership mindset — problems are simply “things to solve”
