About the Role
We are looking for an experienced Senior AI/ML Engineer to spearhead the design, development, and deployment of next-generation AI capabilities for our platform.

Thrive on working with brilliant teammates to solve complex, meaningful problems
Are passionate about making a social impact and supporting people at their most challenging moments
Enjoy cross-functional collaboration with physicians, therapists, data scientists, data analysts and product managers
