LEARN AND CHALLENGE
Leadership That Empowers You to Grow
“Our goal is to lift up our team members and give them the resources they need to succeed,” said Smita Wadhawan, the company’s chief marketing officer. “We ensure we’re creating goals that are not just business-focused but also carving out the time for learning and development.” As a leader, Wadhawan sees her role as one with a priority to empower her team. That means not only empowering them to connect with customers, but also to challenge and grow themselves. “We have access to many learning programs and memberships that allow us the flexibility of learning at our own pace,” she said.

Engineering Manager
EXPLORE AND DEVELOP
Experiment With Tech for Big Results
Josh Keegan Gross’ tech stack includes Ruby on Rails on the backend and Ember.js on the frontend. “Both are opinionated frameworks which take time to learn but allow engineers to complete feature work faster and with more code integrity,” he said. The team has been working on a new project to SimplePractice — a searchable platform of clinicians called the Monarch Directory. “This is a big new direction for us and the impact is huge,” said Keegan Gross. “Allowing people to more easily find and connect with a therapist adds a lot of value to our clinicians, company and the public at large.”

Engineers are invited to demo new technologies at lunch-and-learns and our weekly meetings regularly feature demos of something new we’re using in our stack.
