ABOUT mpathic.ai 

mpathic is keeping humans safe in the AI era through automated tools and expert datasets that are rooted in psychology and powered by clinicians.

We are a series A start-up backed by Tier 1 investors including Foundry.vc and Next Frontier Capital. 

ABOUT THE ROLE

mpathic is seeking a detail-oriented Technical Project Manager to support our clinical experts and ensure on-time, high-quality delivery of client projects. You will onboard and support experts, review roleplays, provide feedback, and maintain clear cross-team communication. This role offers a front-row seat to shaping the safety of cutting-edge AI systems alongside leading clinicians and behavioral experts.

This role is ideal for someone who enjoys connecting people, processes, and technology in a fast-moving AI safety environment. Strong candidates are proactive, reliable, and comfortable balancing autonomy with timely escalation.

We highly value work/life balance and encourage all team members to work reasonable hours, but want to be up-front that the working hours can ebb and flow.

You will support a confidential initiative involving AI safety protocols and mental health policy for large language models (LLMs). Work includes designing and reviewing roleplays, red-teaming model behavior, identifying edge cases, and contributing to psychometrics, rubrics, and evaluation criteria. A strong commitment to safety, ethics, and confidentiality is essential.

This role reports to the Human Data Operations Manager and partners closely with cross-functional leadership.
