What are the responsibilities and job description for the Growth Associate position at Amae Health?
Transforming the lives of those affected by severe mental illness
At Amae Health, we are dedicated to helping the 15.4 million Americans living with severe mental illness (SMI) lead stable, meaningful lives, while ending the cycle of repeat hospitalizations. In collaboration with some of the nation’s top academic medical centers, including NewYork-Presbyterian and Massachusetts General, we’ve pioneered an innovative outpatient care model that combines compassionate, in-person psychiatric care with comprehensive wraparound support. Our integrated care teams — including psychiatrists, therapists, primary care physicians, health coaches, and peer support specialists — work together to treat the whole person via a unique model, addressing physical, mental, and social needs in unison. By caring for every aspect of our patients’ well-being, we help them not just survive, but truly thrive.
The Team
Amae Health is a Series A, venture-backed Public Benefit Corporation on a mission to build the nation’s leading center of excellence for individuals living with SMI. We’re backed by top-tier healthcare and technology investors behind transformative companies like Cityblock, Oscar, Palantir, Square, Instacart, and Lyft. Our strategic partners also include leading health systems such as Cedars-Sinai Health Ventures and CommonSpirit Ventures, reinforcing our commitment to reshaping mental health care at scale. Come join a collective of healthcare leaders and operators on a mission to create a radically different patient-first behavioral health care model that truly transforms patient’s lives by integrating care delivery, patient experience, cutting edge technology and research.
The Opportunity
We are expanding our capacity to care for more patients in existing and new markets, and are looking to hire a Growth Associate to contribute to the development of growth strategies and tactics, support the systems, processes and tools that fuel this work. Reporting to the Director of Growth, the Associate will have a broad impact on how we drive referrals, collaboration and patient acquisition here at Amae. Deeply immersed in the “how”, the Growth Associate will utilize a systems-focused approach to their work, and work collaboratively across the organization to drive growth and continuous improvement.
What You Will Work On
You have a few years of experience under your belt, and are looking to join an organization with a tangible mission where you can gain a variety of functional experience as you grow your career. You have strong analytical and quantitative skills, know your way around a pivot table and v-lookups, and enjoy doing a deep dive into data in order to solve real-world problems. High EQ and low ego, you are flexible and adaptable, and enjoy working with a team that demonstrates the same. If you have a growth mindset, and are excited by the opportunity to build ground-up systems that support an innovative care model, we would love to hear from you!
What You’ll Have
Amae Health is proud to offer a comprehensive benefits package designed to support your personal, financial, and professional well-being—now and into the future. This role includes competitive cash compensation, robust health benefits, and meaningful stock options in a high-growth, mission-driven organization. We’re committed to investing in your growth with dedicated professional development resources, flexible work policies, and a culture that values innovation, ownership, and impact.
'Amae', pronounced ‘Ah-mai’, is a Japanese concept meaning the need to be in good favor with, and the ability to depend on, the people around oneself. It reflects our core belief that a strong support system is essential to build people up, strengthen their will to carry on and even to thrive in life. This mentality applies across our whole company – from the patients we serve to the team we’re building.
We’re a Public Benefit Corporation (PBC) that provides outpatient psychiatric and primary care health services through value-based care arrangements. Our model’s success is predicated upon achieving outcomes for our patients, and ensuring lasting recovery.
Amae Health is an equal opportunity employer and encourages all applicants from every background and life experience to apply.
