Who We Are

Amae Health is a Series B, venture-backed Public Benefit Corporation delivering specialty outpatient care for people with severe mental illness through high-acuity, in-person clinics nationwide.

Our integrated model brings psychiatry, therapy, primary care, dietitians, and community support together under one roof. Leading health systems—including NewYork-Presbyterian, Cedars-Sinai, Mass General Brigham, Novant Health, and CommonSpirit—collaborate with us to expand this level of care.

Alongside care delivery, we are building the science and technology the field has long lacked—proprietary clinical protocols, novel measurement, and an AI-driven data platform designed for severe mental illness.

The impact: fewer hospitalizations, greater stability, and more people living meaningful lives in their communities.

The Team

We are clinicians, operators, technologists, and scientists who chose Amae because the problem is hard and the stakes are real. We are not interested in incremental improvements to a broken system—we are redefining it.

Every function—finance, product, people, growth, technology—exists to serve one goal: better outcomes for the people we care for.

The Role

Amae Health is seeking an energetic and resourceful Community Liaison to join our Community Engagement Team. This full-time role requires a home address within the San Francisco, CA region. You'll build and maintain strong relationships with community stakeholders and champion Amae's mission to deliver compassionate, comprehensive mental health services to individuals with serious mental illness.

What You Will Work On

Community Outreach & Referral Partner Development (80%)

• Actively manage and grow patient referrals in your region through systematic outreach to existing provider partners
• Identify and develop new potential referral sources to grow Amae's presence
• Coordinate rapid responses to urgent patient situations, collaborating with hospital systems, social workers, and providers
• Work closely with clinical staff to ensure referred patients are connected with appropriate care
• Serve as a visible, trusted ambassador for Amae Health in the community

Planning, Collaboration, & Documentation (20%)

• Track outreach activity, referral outcomes, and pipeline in CRM to meet or exceed enrollment targets
• Develop quarterly market plans in collaboration with clinical and leadership teams
• Participate in weekly team meetings; complete documentation accurately and on time

What You'll Have

• 3+ years of client or customer-facing experience with defined engagement targets
• Proven track record of building a referral base and relationships in business development, sales, community outreach, or referral management
• Knowledge of and passion for mental health and wellness
• Excellent oral and written communication skills, including strong public speaking ability
• Reliable transportation and ability to travel throughout the Los Angeles region
• General computer proficiency and ability to learn tools like Google Suite, Slack, and CRM systems

What We're Building

Most healthcare companies ask you to optimize an existing system. We're building one that has never existed.

• A national care model designed for the highest-acuity patients in behavioral health.
• Precision medicine for severe mental illness, using multimodal clinical, behavioral, and social data to personalize treatment.
• A clinical operating system that integrates longitudinal data, real-time patient signals, and purpose-built tools into a single decision layer.
• New science and measurement frameworks to define what real outcomes look like in SMI.
• A health-system partnership model proving coordinated SMI care can work at scale.

Compensation & Benefits

Amae Health is committed to fair and equitable compensation practices. Base salary range for this role is $75,000 - $105,000 and will be adjusted to market cost. Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage. Parental leave and programs built around well-being. We’ll share specifics during the interview process.

Amae Health is building the care platform, the precision medicine, and the frontier science that severe mental illness has never had. If you want to be part of creating something this hard and this important, something that has never been done, we'd like to talk.

The Team

We are clinicians, operators, technologists, and scientists who chose Amae because the problem is hard and the stakes are real. We are not interested in incremental improvements to a broken system

Our teams work cross-functionally because the work demands it. The psychiatrist informs the product roadmap. Engineers understand the clinical complexity their technology must solve. Researchers sit alongside the operators running the clinics their work measures.

Every function—finance, product, people, growth, technology—exists to serve one goal: better outcomes for the people we care for.

The Role

We’re hiring our first dedicated marketing hire — someone who can build and own the full marketing stack for Amae. You’ll work directly with our co-founders to shape Amae’s brand voice and positioning, and own end-to-end execution across every channel.

This is a creative, builder role. You’re the right person for this if you’re an AI-native operator who uses tools to multiply your output, have a genuine point of view on brand, and thrive in environments where the playbook doesn’t exist yet.

This is a full-time onsite role based in either our San Francisco office in Cow Hollow or our NYC Union Square office.

What You'll Work On

• Demand generation and referral growth: Channel strategy across SEO/GEO/SEM, email, social, and events — with a focus on driving referrals from health system partners and clinicians
• Content and thought leadership: Build and execute a content engine that positions Amae as the authority on serious mental illness care — blog, LinkedIn, newsletters, and more
• Brand voice and positioning: Collaborate with co-founders and our PR firm to evolve Amae’s brand identity, messaging architecture, and tone of voice as we scale
• Patient and family marketing: Develop campaigns and materials that speak to patients and families with clarity, empathy, and honesty
• B2B marketing: Develop campaigns and materials that speak to our health plan and health system partners and potential referring providers.
• Event marketing: Supporting the design of our presence at clinical conferences, health system events, and community touchpoints
• Marketing infrastructure: Stand up the tools, workflows, and measurement systems that will underpin Amae’s marketing function long-term

What You'll Have

• 4–6 years of marketing experience, with at least 1+ years as a solo or first marketing hire at a startup (sub-200 people)
• Genuinely AI-native — you’ve built real workflows using tools like Jasper, Perplexity, Clay, Surfer, or equivalents to multiply your output, not just experiment with them
• Demonstrated experience shaping and evolving brand voice — including leading or contributing to rebrands, developing tone-of-voice guidelines, and adapting positioning as a company grows and changes
• Own content and SEO/GEO, with execution supported by a vendor
• Comfortable marketing to both a B2B audience (clinicians, health systems) and a B2C or B2B2C audience simultaneously
• Bias toward measurement — you know what’s working and why
• Thrives in ambiguity — you don’t need a marketing team, a budget template, or a fully built techstack to get started

Nice to Have

• Background in healthcare, digital health, or a mission-driven consumer brand
• Experience ghostwriting or producing founder-voice content
• Familiarity with the behavioral health or SMI landscape

This role reports directly to Sonia Garcia, Co-Founder and Chief Growth Officer; one of the core architects of Amae's partnerships strategy, payer relationships, and commercial expansion. You will work shoulder-to-shoulder with Sonia and the broader leadership team on the work that drives Amae's growth.

The Role

We’re hiring a Founder Associate to work directly with our co-founder, Sonia Garcia, and the growth team. This is a high-ownership role at the center of how Amae grows — from shaping partnerships to helping close them.

You will own key parts of our growth engine: building and driving the partnerships pipeline, driving health plan and health system BD, leading outreach, developing strategic materials, and helping land new health system and value-based care agreements. You’ll work across the full commercial lifecycle — from first touch to signed contract — with visibility into every lever of growth.

We’re looking for someone early in their career with a high ceiling — sharp, organized, low ego, and motivated by the mission. You may come from consulting, banking, or a fast-moving healthcare or tech company. You don’t need to have done all of this before — but you should learn quickly, take ownership, and care about getting it right.

We are open to considering candidates who are based in San Francisco or New York City. This role will require onsite presence in office Monday through Friday.

What You'll Work On

Partnerships & Business Development

• Own the BD pipeline: research prospective health plan and health system partners, identify key contacts, and manage outreach from first touchpoint through to active conversation
• Prepare decks, one-pagers, and data analyses for partnership meetings; translating Amae's model and outcomes into compelling narratives for external audiences
• Coordinate due diligence, follow-up, and relationship management across the pipeline so nothing falls through the cracks
• Track and synthesize market intelligence on payer and health system trends to inform Amae's partnership strategy
• Support brand building and marketing efforts to continue to enhance our brand presence and position 

Sales & Revenue Generation

• Support the development and execution of Amae's sales playbook for new market entry
• Identify and qualify new revenue opportunities, from referral partnerships to new VBC contracts, and help move them through the funnel
• Build and manage CRM hygiene and pipeline reporting so the team always has a clear view of what's in motion and what needs attention

Strategic Projects & Special Initiatives

• Act as a thought partner and doer on high-priority projects that don't fit neatly into a box; from new market analysis to grant applications to competitive landscaping
• Help develop and refine Amae's market expansion strategy as the company scales into new geographies and new payer relationships
• Produce crisp, high-quality materials— memos, briefings, presentations — to support Sonia and the executive team

Operations & Coordination

• Keep partnership and BD processes running smoothly: own scheduling, prep, follow-through, and accountability across all active work streams
• Work cross-functionally with clinical, operations, and finance teams to ensure commercial commitments are grounded in operational reality

What You'll Have

• 3–6 years of experience in consulting, banking, growth, BD, or a fast-moving healthcare/tech environment; you’ve owned real work and driven things forward
• Clear, strong communicator — you write well, think in structure, and show up prepared and thoughtful in conversations
• Highly organized and reliable — you keep track of details, follow-ups, and next steps across multiple workstreams without things slipping
• Quick to learn, strong judgment — you ramp fast, ask good questions, and don’t need a lot of repetition
• High ownership and follow-through — you close loops, hit deadlines, and take responsibility for outcomes
• High EQ, low ego — you’re easy to work with, self-aware, and collaborative across teams and levels
• Mission-driven — you care about SMI and want your work to matter
• Comfortable with variety and pace — you can move between projects, stakeholders, and problems without losing momentum
• Adaptable — when priorities shift, you adjust quickly and keep going

Nice to Have

• Prior exposure to healthcare BD, payer relationships, partner operations, or value-based care contracts
• Experience with CRM tools (HubSpot, Salesforce, or similar) and pipeline management
• Comfort with quantitative analysis, financial models, outcomes data, or similar
• An existing network in healthcare, health plans, or behavioral health

Why This Role Matters

Founder Associate roles at mission-driven startups are some of the most formative experiences available to early-career professionals. You will see the full picture of how a healthcare company grows; what it actually takes to close a health plan partnership, why some deals stall and others accelerate, how a commercial strategy gets built and rebuilt in real time.

You will work directly with a co-founder who has built and closed some of the most innovative health system and VBC agreements in behavioral health. You will have access to a leadership team with decades of experience across healthcare, technology, and operations. And you will do it all in the service of patients who genuinely need someone in their corner.

For the right person, this is a career-defining opportunity. We expect you to grow into more senior roles at Amae as the company scales; and we're committed to supporting that growth.

Compensation & Benefits

Compensation includes a base salary of $100,000 - $165,000 (based on experience) plus equity ownership, giving you a meaningful stake in Amae's growth. Total compensation includes comprehensive medical/dental/vision, unlimited PTO, parental leave, and programs built around employee well-being. We’ll share specifics during the interview process.
