Our mission is to help individuals and organizations thrive by eliminating every barrier to mental health. 


Spring Health is a mental health company founded in 2016 with a mission of using leading technology to help people feel better — faster. We help large employers better manage the mental health burden in their companies. Our peer-reviewed and published clinical technology allows us to deliver care better, faster, and cheaper. 


We are looking for a Tech Lead to lead one of our teams. You will help to define your team’s roadmap and work as a part of a cross-functional product team to find elegant solutions to mental healthcare’s many problems. Additionally, you will guide the growth of the engineering team as a senior member.


We are an award-winning, passionate, and mission-driven team with the support of leaders in psychiatry, and backed by prominent VCs including Rethink, RRE, and General Catalyst.

What You'll Be Doing

  • Lead technical direction for your team
  • Collaborate with design & product to figure out how to solve problems
  • Guide engineers on how to tackle technical problems
  • Work with engineers to identify & prioritize tech debt
  • Design and expand the capabilities of our API (built with Ruby on Rails) which powers several web apps and a mobile app, all of which are used to to screen, diagnose, and provide care for patients
  • Design and expand the capabilities of our web frontends and app, built in React, Redux and Flutter
  • Build thoughtful UI and components by contributing to our design system/component library
  • Build on the foundation of a well tested codebase to ensure it remains robust and scalable as our business rapidly grows
  • Identify areas for growth and iteration on our application stack and advocate for them on the engineering roadmap
  • Help us make decisions like “grow the monolith” or “break things up into microservices” (or some other great idea!)

Your Experience

  • 5+ years of professional development experience
  • 2+ years experience leading a team. NOTE: for us leading a team is different from managing people, management experience is NOT required.
  • Experience with Ruby on Rails
  • Experience with React & Redux
  • Bonus points for Flutter experience
  • Bonus points for experience with Docker & AWS
  • Bonus points for GraphQL API design experience
  • Comfortable working on an agile team and curious about learning new things
  • Enjoy using test-driven development and pair programming
  • Enjoy coaching & growing engineers
  • Comfortable moving fast and working through ambiguity - we are a small startup and are working on balancing the demands of business growth and platform reliability

Why You’ll Like Working at Spring Health

  • Competitive compensation plan including equity in the company: we want you to own a piece of what you’re building.
  • Comprehensive benefits: we offer health, dental and vision benefits as well as access to Spring Health!
  • Flexible vacation plan: our open vacation-policy allows you to take the time off you need when you need it.
  • Great people: make an impact on something that truly helps people alongside an incredible team.
  • We care about diversity: diversity allows us to build an excellent patient experience. 

In addition to finding people who are truly excellent at what they do, we take our values at Spring Health seriously:

Members Come First We are genuine member advocates.

Move Fast to Change Lives We build with urgency and intention.

Take Ownership We extend trust and hold ourselves accountable.

Embrace Diverse Teams & Perspectives We find strength in the diversity of cultural backgrounds, ideas, and experiences.

Science Will Win We will achieve impact by innovation and evidence based frameworks.

Candor with Care We are open, honest and empathetic.

GOOD JUDGMENT
Structure that isn’t stifling
Debbie Markowitz believes in giving team members the proper context, such as the larger business objectives behind a project, to inform their decision-making processes. “I encourage my team to take problem-solving as far as they can, and then to quickly ask for help to remove blockers,” the Spring Health CFO said. “When you provide a challenging growth opportunity, it’s also important to remind your teams that they can take risks, ask for help, make mistakes and even fail — as long as they have the key knowledge to continue their development.”

DEI SUPPORT
Bring your authentic self to work
A founding member of the LGBTQ+ Employee Resource Group “OutSpring,” LeMari Porter appreciates Spring Health’s commitment to creating spaces for employees to not only be heard, but to step up and take the lead. “I’ve never had the chance to work somewhere where I can actively see the foundational parts of an organization grow and feel like I can jump in,” he said. “Leadership’s commitment to organic, internal growth — seeing not only resources, but executive sponsorship for these growth opportunities — has been crucial in their continued success.”

There aren’t a lot of people who look like me in mental health. I wanted to change that.

No swirlies here. Director of Revenue Operations Manas Kulkarni has nothing but affection for his erudite colleagues. “I recently described my teammates as ‘joyful, committed nerds,’ and I meant every word!” Kulkarni said. “Everyone I’ve met has a personal reason why they’re working at Spring Health and cares not only about getting the work done, but doing it well. When I tell friends and family about Spring Health, the most consistent reaction I get is: ‘It’s awesome that you get to work on something you actually care about.’”

This is the first time I’ve felt so personally connected to a mission. Even on frustrating or long days, it’s helpful to remember what we’re trying to achieve.
