The Problem

Severe mental illness affects over 15 million adults in the United States. Schizophrenia. Schizoaffective disorder. Bipolar I. Treatment-resistant depression. These are the conditions the rest of healthcare has systematically failed to build for.

What makes this problem different from most of healthcare is that the tools to solve it do not exist. The clinical protocols, the measurement science, the precision medicine, the technology to deliver coordinated longitudinal outpatient care for this population. None of it has been built. This is a frontier problem, and it requires frontier science and care delivery to solve.

We are developing all of it. The care, the science, the technology.

The Team:

At Amae we are a collective of healthcare 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. Join a team of operators, builders and technologists from One Medical, Forward Health, Stanford, UCLA, Hinge Health, Palantir, The Four Seasons, and Brightline as we redefine care for the most vulnerable populations - across the nation, at scale.

The Opportunity:

We are expanding our capacity to provide whole-person care to patients with severe mental illness in the Boston market, and are growing our leadership team as a result! We are looking to hire a Practice Operations Manager to serve as the operational leader for our Boston clinic beginning in Summer 2026. As a dyad partner to our Clinic Director, the Practice Operations Manager will take the lead on service delivery and operational alignment, delivering on key KPIs and meeting and exceeding operational targets. Onsite and in partnership with clinical leaders, the Practice Operations Manager will provide leadership from a people, systems and process perspective - training, coaching, mentoring and developing teams, while modeling the behaviors to provide best in class service and care to our members.

Truly cross-functional, you are comfortable working across clinic and centralized teams, including HR, Talent, Finance, Growth, Central Operations and Technology to facilitate the programs and systems that will enhance your team’s ability to deliver exceptional care while growing a healthy, sustainable business. You are adept at navigating change in a growing organization, are curious and motivated to learn new technologies, and embrace the ability to improve and streamline how work is executed in your clinic. A player/coach, you are equally as comfortable delegating work as you are rolling up your sleeves working with members. You possess meticulous attention to detail and are highly organized. If you are excited about the opportunity to lead operational excellence in an organization that is dedicated to creating centers of excellence for SMI care, we would love to hear from you!

Cross-functional Collaboration & Performance

Direct experience leading multidisciplinary patient facing teams, inclusive of coaching and training on service delivery, optimizing operations and enhancing patient experience
Strong desire to surpass the status quo for patient experience

Demonstrated experience in improving processes to improve operational outcomes
Experience implementing structured process improvement methodologies (Lean, etc.) with positive outcomes, and coaching others in the process

Amae Health is committed to fair and equitable compensation practices.

Base salary range for this role is $90,000 to $115,000 per year based on a full-time schedule. Actual compensation packages are based on several factors that are unique to each candidate and it is not typical for an individual to be hired at or near the top of the range. These factors include, but are not limited to, job related knowledge and skill set, depth of experience, certifications, degrees, licensures, and specific work location.

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.
