Our mission: to eliminate every barrier to mental health.

Spring Health is a comprehensive mental health solution for employers and health plans. Unlike any other solution, we use clinically validated technology called Precision Mental Healthcare to pinpoint and deliver exactly what will work for each person — whether that’s meditation, coaching, therapy, medication, and beyond.

Today, Spring Health equips over 800 companies, from start-ups to multinational Fortune 500 corporations, as a leading and preferred mental health service. Companies like J.P. Morgan Chase & Co., Microsoft, J.B. Hunt, Bumble, and Instacart use the Spring Health platform to provide mental health services to thousands of their team members globally. We have raised over $370 million from prominent investors including Kinnevik, Tiger Global, Northzone, RRE Ventures, and many more. Thanks to their partnership, our current valuation has reached $2.5 billion.

We are looking for a Senior UX Researcher to join the Customer Experience team, whose work will inform new capabilities that empower HR Leaders and Team Managers to build mentally-healthy organizations and demonstrate a measurable return on investment in mental health. Your research will also inform the creation of tools to enable our Revenue Organization to grow our business, increase customer satisfaction, and delight prospects. You will join a blossoming cross-functional Product team, focused on and measured by outcomes, and empowered to drive key performance indicators and business results. You are a hands-on, collaborative researcher who is excited to take ownership and drive impact. The challenges on this team should get you excited about ensuring Spring Health as a business continues to be healthy and growing.

What you’ll be doing:

  • Design and implement research throughout the product lifecycle, from early stage discovery and strategic research through iterative prototype testing and post-launch measurement
  • Proactively collaborate with design, product, clinical, and commercial teams to define a research roadmap that answers high impact product and strategy questions
  • Build on past research and evolve insights over time, driving impact by effectively communicating findings to cross-functional partners and stakeholders
  • Take ownership in defining the role of UX Research at Spring Health as an early member of the team, including building out processes and communications strategies that allow us to scale and grow our capabilities responsibly and efficiently

What we expect from you

  • Bachelors, Masters, or PhD in Human-Computer Interaction, Information Science, Psychology, Cognitive Science, Anthropology, or related field, OR equivalent experience in an industry setting

  • 5+ years proven track record conducting UX Research with product teams - designing, running, and reporting on your own studies

  • Expertise in qualitative and quantitative user research methodologies including when and how to apply them during each product phase

  • Demonstrated ability to make measurable impact, turning insights into action with excellent facilitation, consensus building, persuasion, and presentation skills

  • Experience with and enthusiasm around working on a cross-functional product development team

Above all, you are empathetic, generous, and curious. You understand that our product can have a significant impact on real lives and you put users first in every decision you make.

Nice to have

  • B2B research experience
  • Healthcare experience

The team

You will be surrounded by many talented, inspiring people everyday. You will be part of an amazing, skilled, and supportive product and engineering team. You will work in close collaboration with product, data science, design, strategy, and others to build experiences for people.

The target salary range for this position is $159,100 - 194,150, and is part of a competitive total rewards package including stock options, benefits, and incentive pay for eligible roles.

We review all employee pay and compensation programs annually at minimum to ensure competitive and fair pay.

Don’t meet every requirement? Studies have shown that women, communities of color and historically underrepresented talent are less likely to apply to jobs unless they meet every single qualification. At Spring Health we are dedicated to building a diverse, inclusive and authentic workplace, so if you’re excited about this role but your past experience doesn’t align perfectly with every qualification in the job description, we strongly encourage you to apply. You may be just the right candidate for this or other roles!
