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 accept insurance and scale their practice.
Headway was founded in 2019. Since then, we’ve grown into a diverse, national network of over 34,000 mental healthcare providers across all 50 states who run their practice on our software. We’re a Series D company with over $325m in funding from a16z (Andreessen Horowitz), Accel, GV (formerly Google Ventures), Spark Capital, Thrive Capital, Forerunner Ventures 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 (~85) but mighty team using technology to build that future (and have a fun time while doing it!).
There is a lot that we're building at Headway, but there are a few teams we’re building where your engineering leadership could make a measurable impact, including our DevEx (Developer Experience / Developer Tooling) and Infra Tooling (Core Infrastructure) teams - owning everything related to the Developer Productivity, and infrastructure, architecture, and scalability of Headway’s platform. You and your teams will be responsible for the whole Developer experience and core infra product lifecycle - from setting the vision to driving execution and measuring impact. You'll have the opportunity work closely with the rest of Headway engineering to understand the needs of our internal teams, while bringing in industry wide best practices and latest tools to up-level our engineering teams.
As an engineering leader at Headway, you will be responsible for establishing and growing these tech teams through hiring, people development, strategic planning, and potentially hands-on technical support or guidance. You get to play a leading role in setting up how the teams operate, defining what and how they build, and ultimately drive best-in-class internal user experiences that have a measurable impact on our ability to execute and meet the demands of a high growth startup.
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 leader at Headway, you will work closely with other Engineering leaders, Product, Design, Operations and Business teams 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.
