Job description

Prosper Health is on a mission to make life happier and healthier for autistic and neurodivergent adults.

Despite rapid growth in known autism prevalence (up >5x in the last 25 years), autistic adults have been ignored by the healthcare system, leading to extremely poor outcomes across mental and physical health. Prosper is changing this by providing specialized, virtual mental health services for autistic adults, covered by insurance. Our innovative autism assessment diagnoses many of our clients for the first time in their lives. We pair that with individualized therapy that is tailored to the needs of autistic adults, and community to help our clients find belonging and remain engaged.

In just 18 months since founding, we have grown to double digit millions of run-rate revenue, thousands of active clients, and 150 clinicians on our team. We have done this all with a lean, ambitious team, and we recently raised a Series A from leading investors and healthcare operators.

Our ambition is bold: to reach and transform the lives of millions of autistic and neurodivergent adults.

The role:

• Prosper Health is hiring outstanding psychologists (e.g., PhDs, PsyDs) for a remote, full-time or part-time position.
• In this role, you will provide autism assessments via telehealth to adults. As we innovate by making adult autism assessments affordable and accessible, you will have the opportunity to contribute to developing best-practices and new approaches to assessing for autism in adults.
• Prosper Health handles the insurance billing, provides supervision and guidance, and finds clients — all you have to do is focus on supporting your clients.
• We are looking for neurodiversity affirming candidates who care deeply about helping autistic adults and are excited about joining a fast-growing startup that is on a mission to change the way autistic adults can achieve and flourish in our society.

Our approach to care: Our care is built on three fundamental pillars:

• Neurodiversity affirming: We celebrate the differences in the way people think, and we take a strength-based approach to help our clients achieve their goals.
• Respecting Autonomy: We support adults and part of that is recognizing our clients as in charge of their own life. We emphasize autonomy and consent in everything we do.
• Personalized: We build our services around our clients as individuals, recognizing that not everyone will want or require the same kind of support. It's our clients’ life - we're here to help with what they think matters.

More about Prosper Health

Our team: We are building a world class team of thoughtful, action-oriented problem-solvers, and pairing them with subject-matter experts from our field (e.g., clinicians, autistic self-advocates). Our operations team is concentrated in New York but spread across the country, and consists of members from places such as Bain, McKinsey, BCG, FirstHand Health, SeatGeek, Harvard, MIT, Northwestern, Dartmouth, Vanderbilt, Yale, Penn, and more.

Our culture:

• Clients first - when making decisions, we optimize for our clients; we stay extremely close to our community so we know their needs better than anyone
• Honesty and transparency - startups run into trouble when they delude themselves from reality; we are honest with ourselves and with each other in pursuit of our mission
• Desire to win - our work is hard, and we want people that are excited by conquering great challenges
• Enjoy the journey - have fun with each other and enjoy the day to day moments
• Growth mindset - we will not get everything right the first time, but we seek feedback, we iterate, and we improve
• Bias for action - we move quickly, decisively and drive results
