Job description

Our mission: eliminating every barrier to mental health.

Spring Health is a global mental health company on a mission to eliminate every barrier to mental health. We're building a world where getting support is simple, personal, and built around the person, so care can continue through every job, move, health plan, and life stage.

Our AI-native platform helps us deliver personalized support across self-guided tools, coaching, therapy, medication management, and specialty care. With outcomes independently validated by JAMA Network Open and the Validation Institute, Spring Health reaches more than 170 million people worldwide through leading employers, health plans, and partners.

As an AI-native company, we believe technology should expand the reach, quality, and humanity of care. Every Spring Health team member is expected to use AI tools thoughtfully, apply human judgment to AI outputs, and keep building AI fluency in ways that support their role and our mission.

Alma, a Spring Health Company, is on a mission to simplify access to high-quality, affordable mental health care. We do this by making it easy and financially rewarding for therapists to accept insurance and offer in-network care. When a provider joins Alma, they gain access to a suite of tools that not only help them better run their business, but also grow it sustainably and develop as a provider. Alma is available in all 50 states, with over 20,000 therapists in our growing network. Anyone looking for a therapist can browse Alma’s free directory. Alma has raised $220.5M in funding from Insight Partners, Optum Ventures, Tusk Venture Partners, Primary Venture Partners, First Round Capital, Sound Ventures, BoxGroup, Cigna Ventures, and Rainfall Ventures. Alma was also named one of Inc’s Best Workplaces in 2022 and 2023.

Full Funnel Lifecycle: Oversee lifecycle channels across the full customer journey, ensuring the right message reaches patients and providers at the right time.
Product Synergy: Partner with Product and Engineering to build surfaces that optimize for conversion quality, not just top-of-funnel spend.
Martech, Measurement & Privacy
Infrastructure: Lead "build-vs-buy" decisions for martech and channel plumbing.
Advanced Attribution: Own the measurement framework, including incrementality testing, Media Mix Modeling (MMM), and reporting.
Regulatory Compliance: Establish measurement frameworks that operate strictly within HIPAA and federal/state data privacy constraints.
Cross-Functional & Team Leadership
Hire, mentor, and manage a high-performing, technical team across paid and organic
Serve as a strategic thought partner to senior leadership on growth strategy, investment decisions, and marketplace dynamics

Product-led growth experience
Familiarity with two-sided marketplace
Experience partnering closely with Engineering and Product as one team with shared outcomes
