THE ROLE

SimplePractice is hiring a Director of Design to lead the UX vision for our Revenue Cycle Management (RCM) group. This team powers how over 250,000 clinicians get paid, from client billing and insurance claims to managed billing services and payment infrastructure.
You’ll partner with senior product and engineering leaders to shape the next generation of financial tools that reduce complexity around insurance, ensure compliance, and make the business of care feel effortless. This role is perfect for a systems thinker who thrives in regulated environments, loves mentoring high-performing teams, and wants to raise the bar for UX across complex workflows.
You’ll also be accountable for raising the bar on interaction quality and visual clarity across the RCM experience. For every clinician who depends on us, getting paid should feel seamless, smart, and increasingly automated. We’re looking for a craft-driven leader with a track record of bringing elegance to complexity. If you’re someone whose portfolio reflects both visual excellence and systems impact, I want to hear from you.

RESPONSIBILITIES

• Define and scale the RCM design organization, including structure, staffing plans, rituals, and quality standards
• Guide senior cross-functional peers through high-stakes tradeoffs, ensuring clarity, alignment, and timely execution
• Drive adoption of robust design processes (system governance, UX metrics, peer reviews) to scale craft excellence
• Advocate for high-quality design at the exec table and in quarterly strategy forums
• Lead UX vision, execution, and team development across the RCM domain
• Drive high-quality design across billing, claims, payments, and eligibility flows
• Partner with product and engineering leadership to shape strategy and delivery plans
• Ensure design excellence across both clinician-facing tools and internal RevOps workflows
• Champion accessibility, data transparency, and inclusive design in all financial experiences
• Identify opportunities to automate or simplify high-friction user tasks
• Guide designers working in highly regulated, infrastructure-heavy systems
• Represent the design org in executive reviews and cross-functional forums
