Senior Engineering Manager, iOS and Android

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 $328Mm in funding, including our Series D, at a $3B valuation from Sequoia Capital, Transformation Capital, TCV, SignalFire, Menlo Ventures, Goldman Sachs Alternatives, and others.

We're looking for a Senior Engineering Manager to lead and scale Grow Therapy's iOS engineering team. You'll own the technical vision, people strategy, and execution for our mobile platform — building consumer-grade experiences that help millions of clients access mental healthcare, and thousands of providers manage thriving practices.

As a Senior Engineering Manager within our engineering leadership team, you'll build and develop a high-performance iOS team, drive the technical strategy for our mobile platform, and partner closely with Product, Design, and cross-functional stakeholders to shape what gets built. This role sits at the intersection of mobile craft, product thinking, and engineering leadership. You'll bring clarity to ambiguity, raise the bar for iOS quality, and create an environment where engineers do their best work.

This is a rare opportunity to define the mobile experience for the future of mental healthcare — building the kind of polished, intuitive app that makes care accessible at a national scale.

• Define and own the long-term technical vision and strategy for the iOS platform, ensuring our mobile experience is on par with the best consumer apps (Airbnb, Uber, Duolingo)

• Lead, mentor, and grow a team of 8 - 9 iOS engineers — raising the bar for craft, code quality, performance, and mobile UX

• Partner with Product and Design leadership to shape the mobile roadmap, ensuring engineering influences direction and doesn't just execute

• Drive high-quality, high-velocity shipping with strong operational frameworks for planning, prioritization, and delivery excellence

• Build scalable mobile architecture — owning decisions around app performance, offline capabilities, release management, CI/CD, and platform tooling

• Use data to guide decisions, instrument systems, measure impact, and continuously optimize the iOS experience

• Execute on performance management — coach engineers on day-to-day challenges and long-term career development, maintain standards of excellence, and recognize outperformance

• Foster a welcoming, collaborative, high-trust team culture with low non-regrettable attrition, even in a remote-first environment

• Contribute to the broader engineering organization by collaborating with peer Senior EMs and leaders on org-wide initiatives and engineering culture

• You have 6+ years of professional software engineering experience, including 4+ years leading engineering teams and at least 2+ years managing iOS or mobile-focused teams

• You have strong iOS technical depth — you understand Swift, UIKit/SwiftUI, mobile architecture patterns, and can engage deeply with your team on technical decisions

• You have a track record of shipping polished, high-quality mobile experiences at scale in a consumer or marketplace environment

• You bring a product engineering mindset — you deeply understand user needs and translate them into delightful, high-performance mobile experiences

• You've scaled teams through rapid growth — you know how to hire, onboard, and develop engineers while maintaining quality and velocity

• You have exceptional communication and cross-functional leadership skills, including the ability to influence non-technical stakeholders

• You operate with a founder's mindset — ownership, speed, scrappiness, resilience, and a bias toward action

• You are passionate about building high-performance teams and developing engineers into future leaders

• Employment Type: Full Time, Exempt

• Base Compensation: $225,000–$300,000 USD Annually

Work Arrangement: Hybrid, with required in-office presence 3 days per week at our San Francisco, New York, or Seattle office. This role also includes travel 2–3 times per year for company and department offsites.

Full Time Employee Benefits:

• Comprehensive Health Coverage: Medical, dental, and vision insurance, plus life and disability coverage.

• Parental Leave & Family Support: Up to 18 weeks paid leave and a new child stipend.

• Financial Wellness: 401(k) program and equity opportunities.

• Meals & Home Office Support: Stipends for home office setup and ongoing funds for meals, with tailored perks for both remote and in-office employees.

• Time Off to Recharge: Flexible PTO, 12 paid holidays, and a full winter break week.

• Wellness & Development: Annual stipends to put towards personal & professional growth.

• Mental & Physical Health Support: No-cost access to therapy through the Grow platform, weekly flexible hours for self-care (“Mental Health Mornings/Afternoons”) and memberships to leading wellness apps (such as One Medical, Headspace, and Talkspace).

• Extra Perks: Pet insurance discounts, commuter benefits, and global travel assistance.

Use of AI Tools: We use certain AI and automated tools to support recruitment. These tools help our team review applications, organize interviews, detect potential application integrity issues, and maintain interview records; they do not make final hiring decisions.

Application Review: Ashby's AI-Assisted Application Review helps review application materials against role-specific criteria and may flag potential fraud or integrity issues for recruiter review. All advancement decisions are made by our human recruiting team after independent review. See Ashby's AI Bias Audit Report.

Interview Recording: We use BrightHire to record interviews, supporting note-taking and consistency across candidates. Learn more. Interviews are confidential; you may ask your interviewer to stop recording anytime, or opt out in advance. Choosing not to be recorded will not, by itself, affect your candidacy.

AI-Assisted Recruiter Screen: For select roles, BrightHire's AI features may help structure initial recruiter screens and organize interview notes. All responses are reviewed by our recruiting team; no hiring decisions are made by AI alone.

State-specific notices: Depending on your location, you may have additional rights. Illinois: If AI analyzes a video interview, we'll provide notice, explain how it works and what it evaluates, and obtain consent beforehand. New York City: Where required, we'll provide at least 10 business days’ notice before using an automated employment decision tool and explain how to request an alternative process. Maryland: We do not use facial recognition to create facial templates during interviews unless required notice and written consent are obtained.
