Perspectives Health is building an AI system that fights insurance denials in behavioral health. We work with some of the best addiction-treatment and mental health programs around the country to protect their revenue and keep patients from losing access to life-saving care.
We are growing quickly, approaching profitability, and our backend needs to move from a scrappy early setup into something more mature without adding unnecessary process or complexity. We want someone who can make good infrastructure decisions for our stage.
You would be the fifth member on our team.
