Alpaca Health•Dallas, TX

2d•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'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’re looking for candidates based in our core territory and open to 5 days in the field. The Referral Partnerships Manager's primary goal will be to grow patient referrals to Alpaca Health by establishing and nurturing relationships with healthcare provider partners. These partners include primary care physicians, pediatricians, and other healthcare professionals who refer their patients to us for ABA therapy or autism diagnosis.
