You’ll help patients throughout their behavioral health care journey—facilitating follow-ups on treatment recommendations and ensuring patients receive therapy, psychiatry, support groups, or other resources they need. You’ll also help patients navigate complex social situations and access the care they need.
You’ll be joining a fast-paced startup where resourcefulness, creativity, and continuous improvement are key. We’re looking for someone who’s not afraid to build, iterate, and use modern tools—including AI—to solve problems and work more efficiently.
