Alpaca Health enables clinicians to become entrepreneurs, starting in autism care.
We help clinicians launch and scale their own clinics by providing AI-powered software, payer contracting, and full back-office infrastructure. Our goal is simple: shift power in healthcare away from large consolidated entities and back to clinicians.
We've raised over $14M in funding from early-stage investors like Core Innovation Capital, Adverb Ventures, and South Park Commons, and are building for long-term category leadership. More importantly, we're serving hundreds of patients, while growing 30% MoM.
This role is full-time. We are open to remote hires, but prefer folks located in Colorado and Texas.
We’re hiring a Director of Referral Partnerships to build and scale the engine that drives patient growth at Alpaca Health.
This is a high-ownership role responsible for developing, managing, and expanding relationships with referral sources (pediatricians, schools, therapists, and community organizations). You’ll define the strategy, build the team, and create the systems that turn partnerships into consistent, high-quality patient flow.
You’ll sit at the intersection of growth, operations, and product—owning one of the most important levers in the business.
