Temp Clinical Product Lead
Headspace is seeking an experienced Temp Clinical Product Lead to serve as a key liaison between Product and Clinical leadership and provide senior-level clinical product partnership across high-priority product domains. This role will embed directly within product squads across core clinical experience areas—including but not limited to Measurement-Based Care, Provider & Care Hub experience, and AI safety initiatives. This is a US-based, remote Temp role that runs for about 6 months with an expected schedule of 20-40 hours per week.
The Temp Clinical Product Lead will work directly with product teams to translate clinical requirements into product strategy, requirements, and execution plans. They will ensure clinical integrity, safety, and evidence alignment in product design and decision-making. Responsibilities include providing structured input into PRDs, experimentation design, and go-to-market considerations, identifying clinical risks and mitigation strategies early in the product lifecycle, and serving as connective tissue between Product, Care Delivery, and Clinical Leadership. Additionally, the role involves reviewing AI-enabled experiences for clinical appropriateness and safety considerations, supporting iteration of escalation pathways and risk governance, and contributing to evidence planning and execution where relevant.
Candidates must possess an advanced clinical degree (e.g., PhD, PsyD, LCSW, LMFT, LPC, MD, or equivalent) and have 5+ years of clinical experience, preferably in behavioral health or digital care delivery. A minimum of 3 years partnering directly with product teams in a health tech environment is required. Strong familiarity with measurement-based care and clinical assessment frameworks, provider workflow optimization, and digital mental health safety standards is essential. The ideal candidate will demonstrate the ability to operate autonomously in ambiguous, fast-moving environments and possess strong systems thinking and structured decision-making capabilities. Experience supporting AI-enabled or automated care experiences is preferred.
Headspace offers a mission-driven environment with a culture that is collaborative, inclusive, and grounded in its values. Employees have the opportunity to shape the future of mental health care and enjoy competitive pay and benefits that support their whole selves. The company is committed to diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging, striving to create a diverse and inclusive environment where everyone can thrive, feel a sense of belonging, and do impactful work together.
