Senior Engineering Manager

We're seeking an experienced Engineering Manager to lead our New Patient Experience engineering team. You'll be responsible for a critical part of our patient journey, overseeing technology that guides patients from their first interaction with us through to their initial appointment. Our new patient experience, from initial outreach to first appointment, is a major strategic focus this year. We pride ourselves on our strong management culture and talented engineering teams.

About Talkiatry:

Talkiatry transforms psychiatry with accessible, human, and responsible care. We’re a national mental health practice co-founded by a patient and a triple-board-certified psychiatrist to solve the problems both groups face in accessing and providing the highest quality treatment.

60% of adults in the U.S. with a diagnosable mental illness go untreated every year because care is inaccessible, while 45% of clinicians are out of network with insurers because reimbursement rates are low, and paperwork is unduly burdensome. With innovative technology and a human-centered philosophy, we provide patients with the care they need—and allow psychiatrists to focus on why they got into medicine.

You will:

• Lead and develop a team of engineers working on our new patient experience platform
• Drive technical strategy and execution for all new patient touchpoints
• Collaborate with product, design, and clinical teams to create seamless patient onboarding
• Set clear goals, prioritize effectively, and ensure timely delivery of high-quality solutions
• Establish robust engineering practices and technical standards
• Mentor team members and foster their professional growth
• Contribute to Talkiatry’s engineering and management culture

• Ability to balance business needs with technical excellence
• Passion for creating exceptional user experiences
