About The Position

Grow was born to tackle a critical challenge: making mental health care more effective and accessible for everyone. Since launching in 2020, 15 million sessions have started on Grow, and we've barely scratched the surface. We do it through a three-sided marketplace that empowers providers, augments insurance payors, and serves patients. Every solution we build reveals ten more waiting to be delivered, and that's just what gets us going. We've backed that ambition with more than $328M in funding, including our Series D at a $3B valuation from Sequoia Capital, Transformation Capital, TCV, SignalFire, Menlo Ventures, Goldman Sachs Alternatives, and others. At Grow, the work you do can literally change someone's life. Your work here doesn't stay on a screen; it impacts whether someone can find, afford, and access quality care. That ambition sets us apart, and offers you an endless runway to impact one of the world's most urgent issues. We don’t have passenger seats here. Everyone is driving something that matters. This work deserves real commitment. So if you thrive on meeting problems head on, untangling serious complexity, and working at pace with the sharpest yet kindest people around, you've come to the right place. About the Internship Where a day’s work is life-changing. Over 12 weeks, you’ll join a product engineering team and own a scoped project addressing a real client, provider, or business need. You’ll contribute to the technical approach and production code, work cross-functionally, and ship a solution with meaningful impact. With support from a dedicated engineer Mentor and Engineering Manager, you’ll receive regular guidance, candid feedback, a midpoint review, and a final project review. As one of 10 interns in Grow’s founding New York City cohort, you’ll also participate in technical learning, leadership conversations, networking, and social experiences—and help shape the program for future interns.
