We believe that mental health is just as important as physical health. We recognize that mental health issues can be complex and multifaceted, and we are dedicated to treating the whole person, not just the symptoms.

We aim to create a world where mental health is no longer stigmatized or marginalized, but rather is embraced as an integral part of one's overall well-being. 

We believe that by providing quality care that is both evidence-based and compassionate, we can empower individuals to take charge of their mental health and achieve their full potential. We are passionate about making a positive impact on the lives of those struggling with mental health issues and we strive to be a force for positive change in the field of mental healthcare.

About the Role

In this role, you will work directly with our roster automation lead to validate data pipelines, execute bulk enrollment record updates, and maintain reconciliation workflows across 50+ payer networks. You will build and maintain operational documentation and SOPs that eliminate tribal knowledge, create real-time visibility into enrollment and roster status, and scope operational requirements for new initiatives before they reach execution. Your work ensures that teams across the organization operate from a single, accurate source of truth and that every operational change is implemented with complete documentation and readiness. If you are passionate about building scalable systems, simplifying complex data, making the invisible visible, and making a meaningful impact, this role is for you.

  • Strong written and verbal communication skills, with ability to translate operational data and findings into clear summaries for both technical and non-technical audiences
