About the role

  • 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.
  • We started by solving the biggest barrier to care: insurance.

Responsibilities

  • Set the multi-year direction for identity and access at Headway. Own the IAM strategy and roadmap (lifecycle, JML automation, IdP architecture) as a group-level program tied to business outcomes, not just a set of workflows to run.
  • API/SCIM/OIDC/SAML integration design, RBAC modeling, and device-to-identity trust.
  • Set the patterns other engineers build on.

Skills

  • The admin work - credentialing, claims, payment reconciliation - is a nightmare.
  • Over 75,000 providers across all 50 states run their practice on our software, serving over 1 million patients.
  • Join us, and help change mental healthcare for the better.
  • Identity and access is foundational to how Headway operates securely at scale.

Benefits

  • Headway's mission is to fix this by building a new mental healthcare system everyone can access.

Company info

  • As part of this commitment, Headway will ensure that persons with disabilities are provided with reasonable accommodations.
