Somethings connects teens with a Certified Peer Specialist Mentor who provide a safe, trustworthy space to feel their best and combat loneliness. Backed by General Catalyst.
About the role
We're looking for a Head of Design to lead all design ownership at Somethings — from strategy and brand identity all the way through to implementation and craft. This is the most senior design role at the company. You will report directly to the CEO and own design across every surface: our teen mobile experience, mentor web platform, clinical tooling, and brand.
What they're looking for
- 8+ years of product design experience , with at least 3 years in a design leadership role
- A portfolio that demonstrates both exceptional visual craft and end-to-end product thinking — from ambiguous problem to beautiful, shipped solution
- Deep experience building design systems from scratch and governing them at scale
- Proven track record of managing and growing design teams — you've hired, developed, and led designers and know what great leadership looks like
- Fluency across both mobile and web — you understand the distinct nuances of each platform and design natively for both
- Experience in consumer or social products where emotional resonance is as important as usability
More about this role
Somethings is building the first social wellness platform for teens — a place where a teen can form a real relationship with a mentor who gets them, sticks with them, and helps them get better.
25 million teens in the U.S. are struggling with their mental health. Every one of the thousands of teens who downloads Somethings is struggling. Our job is to make sure they don't just show up — they stay, connect with real humans who care deeply about them, and get the support they need to thrive.
We're backed by General Catalyst and world-class healthcare + consumer investors, and we're growing like crazy — in 2025 we grew 1100%, raised our $15M Series A, and are on track to 5x in 2026.
If you want to be part of the generationally defining company in mental health, welcome home.
