Full Job Description
About Us: Grow Therapy is on a mission to serve as the trusted partner for therapists growing their practice, and patients accessing high-quality care. Powered by technology, we are a three-sided marketplace that empowers providers, augments insurance payors, and serves patients. Following the mass increase in depression and anxiety, the need for accessibility is more important than ever. To make our vision for mental healthcare a reality, we’re building a team of entrepreneurs and mission-driven go-getters. Since launching in February 2021, we’ve empowered more than ten thousand therapists and hundreds of thousands of clients across the country and insurance landscape. We’ve raised more than $178mm of funding from Sequoia Capital, Transformation Capital, TCV, SignalFire, and others. The Opportunity: We’re looking for a highly technical, systems-oriented Staff Engineer to drive architecture, scalability, and platform strategy across the Lives Covered organization at Grow Therapy. This role will work horizontally across Billing & Payments and Partnerships to strengthen the core systems that power insurance workflows, partner integrations, financial infrastructure, and clinical data exchange. You will operate at the intersection of product, platform, and infrastructure—partnering closely with Engineering Managers and Product leads to shape long-term technical direction while unblocking high-impact initiatives. You’ll identify fragmentation across services, design durable abstractions, and ensure that foundational systems (e.g., billing integrity, claims lifecycle, partner ingestion, data sharing) scale with Grow’s growth. What You’ll Be Doing: Define and own the long-term technical vision for core Lives Covered systems, including billing integrity, claims lifecycle, partner integrations, scheduling, and clinical data exchange. Architect scalable backend systems that support high-volume financial transactions, partner onboarding, eligibility checks, prior authorization
