Founding Product Manager

Alpaca Health•New York, NY

17d•Onsite

About The Position

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 are growing quickly and expanding into new states this year. The problems we are solving are operationally complex, high-stakes, and deeply meaningful for families. 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. We are hiring a Founding Product Manager to evolve Alpaca Health from a provider-focused EHR into an AI-native platform that powers every side of our market: providers, families, referral partners, and even payers. We are not looking for a traditional PM. You will not just write specs or run standups. You will prototype with AI, pressure-test ideas, and drive decisions through execution, not just talk.

Requirements

3–6 years of product management experience (B2B SaaS or AI-native preferred)
Strong technical depth in AI systems, data architecture, or developer-adjacent environments
Experience using AI tools to rapidly prototype and iterate
Track record of owning products from 0 → 1
Ability to bridge engineering and business teams effectively
NYC-based candidates (or open to relocation). We work 5 days a week in person.

Responsibilities

Use AI to prototype fast
Build prototypes using tools like Claude Code, Cursor, and other AI-native tooling.
Show, not tell—validate ideas through working demos, not specs.
Own growth and conversion
Instrument and optimize the full funnel—from referral → intake → match → session.
Run experiments to improve conversion rates and reduce time to care.
Define the patient experience
Design the end-to-end journey for families, from first touch to ongoing care.
Ensure tight coordination between patient experience and provider workflows.
Build the provider growth platform
Create systems that help providers onboard quickly and scale their practice.
Focus on intelligent scheduling, staffing, and utilization to drive revenue and outcomes.
Do whatever builds the best product
Some days will be prototyping. Some will be deep in systems. Some will be in the field, talking to customers.
You will own outcomes, not tickets.
