Job Description

1 in 4 people in the US have a treatable mental health condition, but most providers don't accept insurance, making therapy too expensive for most people. Headway’s mission is to fix this by building a new mental healthcare system everyone can access. We started by solving the biggest barrier to care: insurance. The admin work - credentialing, claims, payment reconciliation - is a nightmare. We've automated that.

But we're going further. Over 70,000 providers across all 50 states run their practice on our software, serving over 1 million patients. We are building the best tools for therapists to run their entire practice, reimagining the experience of finding a therapist, and investing in the platform foundations to enable this at scale. We aren't just a billing layer; we are becoming the platform where care actually happens.

We're a Series D company with $325M+ in funding (a16z, Accel, GV, etc.), looking for exceptional people to help us achieve this mission. We want your time here to be the most meaningful experience of your career. Join us, and help change mental healthcare for the better.

About The Role

At Headway, we're building the future of behavioral health quality and safety. We're hiring a Clinical Quality Lead to support our clinical quality monitoring initiatives and our Ongoing Professional Practice Evaluation Program for our network of therapists. You'll work cross-functionally with Operations, Compliance, Product, Engineering, and other teams to build robust clinical quality frameworks and optimize chart review workflows. This is an exceptional opportunity to reimagine how behavioral health quality is defined and measured at a rapidly scaling, mission-driven company.
