We believe that mental health is just as important as physical health. We recognize that mental health issues can be complex and multifaceted, and we are dedicated to treating the whole person, not just the symptoms.
We aim to create a world where mental health is no longer stigmatized or marginalized, but rather is embraced as an integral part of one's overall well-being.
We believe that by providing quality care that is both evidence-based and compassionate, we can empower individuals to take charge of their mental health and achieve their full potential. We are passionate about making a positive impact on the lives of those struggling with mental health issues and we strive to be a force for positive change in the field of mental healthcare.
About the Role
Get ready to make a real impact! We’re looking for a Lead User Experience Researcher (Lead UXR) to transform how millions of people connect with the mental health care they need. Patients deserve a seamless, stress-free way to find the right provider, and you’ll be at the heart of making that happen!

In this role, you will be responsible for driving strategic and tactical research initiatives that inform product decisions and improve user experiences. This role will shape how we understand user behavior, needs, and pain points, with a strong focus on patient access to mental health services. The Lead UXR will work closely with product managers, designers, engineers, and leadership to ensure research insights translate into meaningful product improvements.

Lead and execute mixed-methods research studies (e.g., interviews, usability tests, surveys, ethnographic studies)
Synthesize qualitative and quantitative data to provide actionable insights that directly inform product decisions and broader business strategies.

Proven experience leading UX research for B2C products, marketplaces, or other highly user-centric domains.
Deep expertise in both qualitative and quantitative research methods, with the ability to determine when to move fast with directional insights versus when to apply more rigorous methodologies.
Ability to synthesize complex findings into clear, actionable recommendations that drive product and design decisions.
Strong collaboration and storytelling skills, making research insights accessible and compelling to cross-functional teams.
