Marble Health Mission, Purpose & Impact

Tell us about Marble Health’s mission. How does that mission influence the company culture, and did it impact your decision to join the team?

Our mission is to solve the youth mental health crisis by making care fast, affordable and truly effective. We partner directly with schools to quickly connect students to care, then provide a platform where they can collaborate on that care with therapists and families. By providing group, individual and family care, we meet kids’ needs in the way that’s best for them. Our work not only directly addresses the long waitlists and access barriers that too often leave families without help, but it’s also redefining what effective care looks like. 

That mission shapes our culture in everything we do. The team is collaborative, curious and deeply focused on solving problems for students and schools. Ideas are welcomed from everyone, critical thinking is valued and we hold each other accountable while celebrating wins together. People at Marble are smart, driven and genuinely a joy to work with, which makes it a place where you can do your best work. For me personally, the mission was a huge reason I joined. I want my work to have a meaningful impact, and being able to contribute directly to improving access to mental health care for kids is both motivating and rewarding.

From your perspective, how does your work connect to the overall company mission?

Because Marble is still a small and nimble team, almost everything I work on connects directly to our mission. For example, I’m currently building our first patient-facing portal so students and guardians can easily view and manage appointments. Making scheduling simpler removes a major barrier that often keeps kids from getting care.

Our approach to building features also reflects our mission. When our operations or growth team identifies an issue or requests a new feature, we prioritize it and act quickly. For smaller features, we skip lengthy specs or product docs and focus on shipping fast. That way, students, families, and schools see the impact immediately. This bias toward speed and action ensures that everything I work on is tightly connected to Marble’s goal: getting kids into care as quickly and seamlessly as possible. It’s satisfying to know that the tools I build directly help real students access the support they need.

What advice would you give a jobseeker hoping to join Marble Health?

My advice is to spend time learning about Marble and thinking about how your own story connects to our mission. We care deeply about hiring teammates who are as committed to solving the youth mental health crisis as we are. Being able to clearly explain why this work matters to you and how your skills can contribute goes a long way.

Because our product team is still small, engineers and other team members play a big role in shaping what we build. We don’t follow a traditional scrum model with dedicated product managers and designers for every project, so having strong product thinking is key. You should be comfortable evaluating user needs, weighing trade-offs and helping decide what work is most important.

More broadly, the people who thrive at Marble embody our three must-have traits: introspective team player, relentless drive and operational excellence. If you can demonstrate those qualities in how you approach your work and your problem-solving, you’ll be a great fit here.
