The Company
Cerbo · OptiMantra is a healthcare technology company built for the practices actively changing how medicine is delivered. Our platforms serve functional, integrative, direct primary care, concierge, med spa, and behavioral health practitioners who need software that keeps pace with how they work -- not the other way around.
Each platform is a purpose-built EHR and practice management solution. Cerbo is architected for clinical depth: deep configuration, protocol-specific workflows, and the kind of flexibility that holistic and functional medicine practices require. OptiMantra is structured for scale: multi-modality breadth, out-of-the-box readiness, and the operational infrastructure that growing practices rely on.
Together, our two platforms form a leading presence in this rapidly expanding market. Our practitioners are redefining what a patient experience can look like. We exist to give them the technology foundation to do exactly that at whatever size and pace they choose to grow.
What You’ll Do
As Head of Partnerships, you will serve as the central owner of all partnership activity at Cerbo OptiMantra — from managing existing relationships to building net-new ones, growing partnership revenue, and shaping our long-term build/buy/partner strategy. Reporting directly to the Chief Product Officer, you will be the face of Cerbo OptiMantra to our partners, a trusted cross-functional collaborator internally, and a key voice in how we grow and evolve the business. This is a net-new role with high visibility and real influence — built for a strategic operator who can both close deals and think at the portfolio level.

Drive and grow partnership-sourced revenue through co-selling arrangements, referral programs, and joint packaging opportunities
Own the design, launch, and ongoing optimization of Cerbo OptiMantra's partner referral program
Define and track revenue KPIs for the partnerships function, reporting regularly to the CPO and executive leadership on pipeline and performance
Product & Integration Collaboration
Act as the internal advocate for partners, triaging issues and coordinating with Product and Engineering teams to resolve integration challenges and technical escalations
Serve as a knowledgeable bridge between partners and internal technical teams — able to engage credibly on APIs, integrations, and platform capabilities at a conceptual level
Contribute to integration roadmap prioritization by surfacing partner needs and market signals to the Product team
M&A & Build/Buy/Partner Strategy
Serve as a key input to Cerbo OptiMantra's M&A evaluation process, bringing market knowledge and partner intelligence to inform build/buy/partner decisions
Assess the competitive and partnership landscape to identify strategic gaps and opportunities for inorganic growth or deep integration
Partner closely with the CPO and executive team on long-term strategic planning, contributing a partnerships lens to product and company direction

Help define the structure, processes, and tooling needed to scale the partnerships organization over time

Demonstrated experience within the healthcare technology sector, with a strong understanding of the ecosystem, key players, and regulatory environment

Exceptional cross-functional leadership skills with the ability to influence without direct authority across Product, Engineering, Sales, and executive teams
Experience with or exposure to M&A processes, strategic assessments, or build/buy/partner frameworks
