About the Position

Manager, Data Recruiting

Headway is hiring a Manager of Data Recruiting to lead hiring across Data Science and Data Engineering. In partnership with the Senior Manager of Tech Recruiting, you will deliver on a mission-critical hiring engine that fuels Headway’s growth.

You will lead and develop a high-performing team of recruiters while partnering closely with leaders across Data at Headway. The systems you build and the talent your team brings in will directly impact Headway’s ability to serve providers and patients at scale.

Headway’s mission is to fix the mental healthcare system by building a new 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 75,000 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, Spark Capital, 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.
