This is a significant opportunity to shape the mobile experience for the future of mental healthcare, creating an accessible and intuitive app on a national scale.
Requirements

Responsibilities
- 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)

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