Question: I want to know why Amanda was working for Jigsaw. He had already used her in one of his contraptions/games. Surely she would not work along side him. Was she slightly mad?

Answer: She's not mad. She realised that she has something to live for, a purpose. She wants to continue Jigsaw's work. Jigsaw gave her that purpose, so she respects him.
Answer: Also, she was "saved by him." He helped her realize her life was worth living and to get off the drugs. He helped her get over her addiction. She thought she owed him her life for that.

Answer: She was a lot more than slightly mad. Jigsaw plays mind games with people, apparently he broke Amanda. It's a little like Stockholm syndrome where people being held hostage can end up sympathizing with their captors.
