Staff Front End Software Engineer (Tapestry)

Our mission is to make therapy more accessible, affordable, and affirming—without compromise.

We’re building a mental health system that centers real people, not red tape. That means empowering independent providers to build sustainable practices—while removing the administrative burdens that keep care out of reach. We take care of the logistics (insurance, billing, referrals) so therapists can focus on healing work.

You deserve mental health care that sees you—fully.

At Grow Therapy, we help people find therapists who reflect their lived experience, whether that means shared racial or cultural background, language, identity, or life stage. As an online therapy platform, we strive to make it easy to search for licensed therapists by specialty, availability, and insurance. Many clients pay around $21/session with insurance, and we’re in-network with major plans like Aetna, Cigna, UnitedHealthcare, Medicare, and Medicaid. If you're paying privately, many therapists offer flexible rates to meet you where you are.

Grow is powered by people who care—deeply.

We’re a mission-driven team of clinicians, engineers, designers, and advocates who believe that therapy can change lives, families, and communities. We work hard to build a supportive culture from the inside out, with values like balance, integrity, inclusion, and trust at our core. That includes generous PTO, wellness benefits, mental health moments, and a commitment to showing up for each other—our teammates, our providers and our clients.

We're honored to be growing with support from mission-aligned partners—including leaders from Sequoia, SignalFire, Village Global, Airbnb, Nurx, PatientPing, and Blackstone—who share our belief: that everyone deserves access to quality mental healthcare.
