Job Description

We're looking for a Staff iOS Engineer to lead how we design, build, and ship mobile applications at Headway. This role will help establish Headway's approach to mobile engineering by defining architecture, development, testing, and release best practices. At the same time, it will directly own and deliver our first ever patient-facing mobile app, launching first on iOS.

Responsibilities

  • Write production code, set up tooling and processes, and partner closely with engineering, product, design, and data leaders to build a best-in-class mobile app.
  • Play a key role in building out the mobile team.

Requirements

  • Real-world experience building iOS applications and defining release and testing processes.
  • Not overly dogmatic about technology choices: want to move quickly and use the best tool for the job, defaulting to Swift and SwiftUI but leveraging webviews and other approaches when needed.
  • Care deeply about craft and usability, and obsess about end users.
  • Current or past experience with full-stack web development, and don't shy away from working across other parts of the stack when needed.
  • Willing to flex into new technical and non-technical areas as projects require.

Nice to Have

  • Driven technical vision and strategy at the organizational level through technical design documents, reviews, and participation in planning cycles.
  • Led major technical initiatives that required coordination across multiple teams and stakeholders.
  • Regularly mentor senior engineers and technical leaders and help set technical direction through influence rather than authority.

What We Offer

  • Expected base pay range: $224,000 - $280,000, based on a variety of factors including qualifications, experience, and geographic location.
  • Comprehensive and competitive total rewards package, including robust health and wellness benefits, retirement savings, and meaningful ownership opportunities through equity.
  • Benefits offered include:
  • Equity compensation
  • Medical, Dental, and Vision coverage
  • HSA / FSA
  • 401K
  • Work-from-Home Stipend
  • Therapy Reimbursement
  • 16-week parental leave for eligible employees
