Headway’s mission is a big one - to build a new mental health care system everyone can access. We’ve built technology that helps people find great therapists with the first software-enabled national network of providers accepting insurance.
1 in 4 people in the US have a treatable mental health condition, but the majority of providers don’t accept insurance, making therapy too expensive for most people. Headway is building a new mental healthcare system that everyone can access by making it easy for therapists to take insurance and scale their practice.
Headway was founded in 2019 – since then, we’ve grown into a diverse, national network of over 25,000 mental healthcare providers across all 50 states who run their practice on our software. We’re a Series C company with over $225m in funding from a16z (Andreessen Horowitz), Accel, GV (formerly Google Ventures), Spark Capital, Thrive Capital, and Health Care Service Corporation.
We want your time here to be the most meaningful experience of your career. Join us, and help change mental healthcare for the better.
Building a new mental healthcare system at Headway is only possible because of the scale and leverage that software can provide. The engineering team at Headway is a small but mighty team using technology to build that future (and have a fun time while doing it!).
The Internal Tools team owns the systems used by Headways' non-technical teams to access healthcare data and take action. This team's work directly impacts our ability to serve our customers, expand our business, and maintain efficient operations. You will own a large portion of our significant business metric: cost per appointment. As the manager of this team, you will work directly with product, customer experience, operations, and our medical team to understand what they need to do their jobs. You will partner deeply with these teams to understand their needs, create a strategy to drive the deepest value for Headway and deliver on it. You will create the roadmap and decide how to deliver the biggest impact for Headway as we work to improve efficiency, privacy, and ease of use for our internal tools.
We’re looking for experienced engineering team leaders and people managers who are relationship-obsessed, drive results, and enable their teams to build for technical excellence. As an Engineering Manager at Headway, you will work closely with Engineering Leadership to help shape the future of the engineering organization. This is an exciting opportunity for a passionate, mission-aligned engineering leader to make an immediate impact on our rapidly scaling engineering team.
