Our Engineering team builds robust, scalable, and high-impact software that drives real outcomes. As we scale, we're evolving our culture to move fast, raise the bar, and deliver at startup speed.
The Role
Join our fast-growing team to deliver high-quality, well-engineered solutions that improve patient outcomes and primary care efficiency. You'll work in a cross-functional squad, collaborating with Product, Design, and Engineering to ship impactful features and iterate quickly. You'll also help shape our culture, raise standards, and scale both our tech and our team.
What You'll Do
- Own delivery: Lead technical planning and execution, shipping reliable, scalable software.
- Collaborate: Work with stakeholders to refine requirements, solve real problems, and communicate progress.

- Relentless focus on product delivery and outcomes.
- Pragmatic approach to balancing speed, quality, and technical debt.
- Track record of raising standards and driving improvement.
- Strong hands-on technical skills (Python, TypeScript, React, AWS, DevOps, etc.).
- Excellent communicator, able to explain complex ideas simply.
- Ownership mindset - comfortable with ambiguity and end-to-end responsibility.
- Excited to work closely with Product and Design as true partners.
- 3+ years' recent experience in relevant technologies.
- Bonus: Healthcare or B2B SaaS experience.
Who This Role Isn't For
- Not motivated by product outcomes.
- Prefer only early-stage or PoC work.
- Want narrowly defined, low-ambiguity roles.
- Not interested in leadership or raising the bar.
Benefits
- Private Pension
- Share Options scheme
- Generous sick and maternity/paternity leave
- As much freedom and independence as you earn, and a chance to grow rapidly as the company does.
