Anesthesia recruiting is fragmented. Providers navigate scattered listings, incomplete pay information, and repeated discovery calls. Employers spend time reaching people whose requirements may never align with a role.
RxRooster moves matching earlier. Providers state their preferences, employers define their openings, and both sides can assess fit before investing in a conversation.
OUR PURPOSE
A clearer path from opportunity to fit, with providers in control of their information.
02 / THE PLATFORM
One platform. Two sides.
Built around the terms that determine fit.
For providers
CRNAs and anesthesiologists can explore the market without making their search public.
Define rate, schedule, location, and work preferences.
Manage credentials and prepare a professional resume.
Compare opportunities and choose when to share details.

Read biography
Alma Knudson is the founder and head of engineering of RxRooster. He has spent his career building systems that move resources to where they are needed, from the finance and logistics backbone of a major US hospital system to a platform taken into production at a federal public health agency.
He started RxRooster because anesthesia is one of the most expensive and most fragmented workforce problems in healthcare, and hiring in it takes too long to reach the right conversation. Providers face openings in inconsistent formats, most of them mismatched on pay, location or credentials, and negotiations they do not control. Employers have no clear read on market rate and reach the wrong people slowly. The result is coverage arriving late to the facilities and communities that need it.
His aim is an anesthesia market where the provider sets the terms and coverage reaches the room. He applies automation where it earns its place (making a chaotic market legible, verifying credentials) and hard engineering everywhere trust and money are on the line.
