🏥 About Sailor Health

Sailor Health is on a mission to solve the mental health crisis among older adults. In the United States, older adults have the highest suicide rates of any age group yet receive the least mental health care. By 2030, over 65 million seniors will make up nearly a quarter of the U.S. population, creating one of the largest and most urgent challenges in healthcare.

Sailor is building the AI-native platform for senior mental health, connecting older adults, therapists, healthcare professionals, and insurance plans. Our operating system powers seamless care coordination, real-time clinical insights, and insurance billing - enabling therapists to spend more time delivering compassionate care.

We are backed by the founders of Ramp, Headway, and Nourish. Launched earlier this year, we’re already at 7 figures of revenue run-rate and doubling every 75 days!

Location: Soho, New York City, in office, 1 day a week.

Pay: $30 per hour

As an Operations Intern at Sailor Health, you’ll play a vital role in the heartbeat of our day-to-day execution. This is a unique opportunity to get hands-on experience inside a fast-growing, mission-driven healthcare startup.

What We Do

Sailor Health is on a mission to solve the mental health crisis among older adults. In the United States, older adults have the highest suicide rates of any age group yet receive the least mental health care. By 2030, over 65 million seniors will make up nearly a quarter of the U.S. population, creating one of the largest and most urgent challenges in healthcare.

Sailor is the first holistic mental health platform to serve the senior population. We have helped thousands of patients by pairing them digitally with our therapist-led care teams. Our AI-native platform powers seamless care coordination and real-time clinical insights, enabling providers to spend more time delivering compassionate care.

We are growing quickly and have partnered with Medicare to offer affordable and exceptional psychotherapy to hundreds of patients. We are honored to have the support and backing of world-class founders from Ramp, Nourish, Headway, Charlie Health, and Spring Health.

Why Work With Us

We are one of the fastest-moving teams in health tech: every person punches above their weight and owns meaningful work far beyond their title. We’re lucky to be backed by a tier 1 VC (unannounced) and the world-class founders of Ramp, Headway, Charlie Health, and Nourish.
