Community Liaison

Amae Health is a Series B, venture-backed Public Benefit Corporation that delivers specialty outpatient care for people with severe mental illness. We build and operate high-acuity, in-person clinics nationally. Our model integrates psychiatry, therapy, primary care, dietitians, and community support under one roof.

But what makes us fundamentally different is that we are also building the science and technology layer that this field has never had.

Precision medicine for SMI: collecting multimodal data across clinical, behavioral, and social dimensions to develop individualized treatment approaches for a population that has never had them. A clinical operating system that synthesizes longitudinal data, real‑time patient signals, and purpose‑built clinical tools into a single decision layer. Nothing like it exists today. Frontier science and measurement: defining and validating the outcomes frameworks that this field has never had. Hospitalizations avoided, days stable, functional improvement, and more. This is not incremental research. This is building the scientific foundation for an entire category of care. A partnership model with the country’s leading health systems that proves coordinated SMI care can work at scale. If you want to ship a product that sits in a backlog, this is not the place.

This mentality applies across our whole company – from the patients we serve to the team we’re building.

WHAT WE VALUE

We center care in all we do. Empathy is not a brand value. It’s how we make clinical decisions, build products, and treat each other. We challenge convention. The existing system is the problem. We question it, we test alternatives, and we move with urgency when something works. We take the work seriously, not ourselves. High standards and humanity are not in tension. We hold a hard bar for quality while leaving room for humor and levity. Your job isn’t done until the job is done. We close gaps, we follow through, and we don’t hide behind titles or org charts. We win together and fail together. We own outcomes as a team. We learn fast. We don’t do blame. We hustle with humility. Speed matters. So does integrity. We assume best intent and stay grounded in the mission. Amae Health is an equal opportunity employer and encourages all applicants from every background and life experience to apply. #J-18808-Ljbffr Quiet Capital
