Boston, Massachusetts, United States firsthand Full time

firsthand is changing the way individuals living with Serious Mental Illness (SMI) get care. We are focusing on delivering real outcomes for a cohort that has historically been underserved, stigmatized, and deprioritized. By building a service focused on whole-person care, firsthand aims to find, establish a trusting relationship with, and support quality care for individuals living with complex experiences of SMI. firsthand's high-touch model will dramatically improve the health and outcomes of its engaged individuals, driving down the utilization of high-cost care while also helping individuals enroll in eligible federal, state, and municipal benefits. Most importantly, our goal is to be the trusted guide, partner, and first call for individuals we serve, guiding them to a life of stability and independence.

In doing so, we will not only improve lives, but also improve the economics for managed care plans and states responsible for providing care to this community. This enables us to build solutions that scale and, as a result, change the way our society supports those most impacted by serious mental illness.

In order to facilitate the firsthad mission, we are building data infrastructure in order to surface critical data or insights that enable more timely and personalized engagement outreach on individuals living with SMI at scale.

  • You are passionate about building quality products and want to own product development end-to-end leading with the right design and development principles
  • You have experience with common software development practices such as version control, unit testing, and CI/CD

  • Experience with Apache Airflow, DBT, and ETL / ELT toolsStrong Python skills
