Role summary
Finni Health is seeking a licensed clinical psychologist (PhD/PsyD) to establish and lead their autism diagnostic evaluation service via telehealth. This founding diagnostician role involves conducting comprehensive evaluations for children and adolescents, administering evidence-based assessments, writing diagnostic reports, and communicating findings to caregivers. The position is fully remote across the U.S. on a 1099 contract basis, offering flexible scheduling and competitive hourly pay ($60-$120). The company covers licensure costs and handles all administrative tasks, allowing the psychologist to focus on clinical work and system building. Preferred qualifications include PSYPACT eligibility and experience with telehealth evaluations and specific autism assessment tools.
The Role
We're hiring a licensed clinical psychologist (PhD/PsyD) to conduct autism diagnostic evaluations for Adults, Teens, and Children via telehealth — as our founding diagnostician, building the function from zero.
Families across the country wait months for an autism evaluation, and nothing starts until that evaluation is done. Finni Health already delivers ABA therapy to kiddos across the country; diagnostics is how we close the gap between "something's going on" and "care has started." You'll be the clinician who builds it.
What You'll Do
Conduct comprehensive autism diagnostic evaluations via telehealth for children and adolescents in New Mexico
Review developmental, behavioral, medical, educational, and family history
Administer and interpret evidence-based diagnostic tools and clinical assessments
Write clear, timely diagnostic reports that hold up to payer and school scrutiny
Deliver findings and next steps to caregivers with warmth and clarity, and coordinate with referring providers
Set the standard: build the diagnostic protocols, report templates, and quality bar this function will run on
Work directly with our product and ops teams to shape the tooling around you
Focus on evaluations while we handle scheduling, insurance, billing, and credentialing
What We Offer
Flexible, remote-first work
Set your own schedule and caseload — part-time is welcome
Fully remote from anywhere in the U.S.
1099 contract at $60 – $120/hour, based on licensure and experience
We cover your licensure
Don't hold the license for a specific state yet? We pay the full cost of getting you licensed.
Admin is our job, not yours
Scheduling, insurance verification, billing, and credentialing are handled for you
Purpose-built software — we build our own clinical tooling, and you'll have a direct line to the team that builds it
Founding scope
You're the first diagnostician at Finni. You define how this works rather than inheriting someone else's playbook
Real path to clinical leadership as the function grows
Direct access to the founders — small team, short decisions
What We Look For
Required
Doctoral degree (PhD/PsyD) in psychology from an APA-accredited program
Current licensure as a psychologist in good standing, with no disciplinary actions — either already licensed in New Mexico, or licensed elsewhere and eligible and willing to obtain NM licensure, which we will pay for. You may be based anywhere in the U.S.; this role is fully remote.
Demonstrated experience diagnosing Autism Spectrum Disorder
Strong assessment, clinical interviewing, and report-writing skills
Comfort working independently in a remote setting, and real fluency with software
Excellent judgment, empathy, and communication with families
Availability to work as a 1099 contractor
Preferred
PSYPACT participation or eligibility
Experience with telehealth-delivered diagnostic evaluations
Familiarity with evidence-based autism assessment tools (ADI-R, CARS-2, BOSA/TELE-ASD-PEDS, or similar)
Experience serving diverse pediatric and family populations, including Medicaid
Interest in building systems, processes, and standards from the ground up
Prior startup or early-stage company experience
Compensation
$60 – $120 per hour, based on licensure and experience. Structure can be hourly or per-evaluation — whichever fits your practice better.
Equal Opportunity
We are committed to building an inclusive environment and welcome candidates from a wide range of backgrounds and experiences.
