Strategy & Ops Intern (NYU student)

🏥 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!
