Founding Software Engineer
Early-Stage B2B SaaS | HealthTech & Compliance
📍 London Hybrid (3+ days/week)
💰 Up to £100k + Meaningful Equity

I’m partnering with a confidential early-stage SaaS company building modern software for the regulated healthcare sector.

They’re tackling an industry still dominated by manual processes, fragmented systems, and slow compliance workflows — creating a platform that combines workflow automation, healthcare operations, and AI-enabled decision support.

This is an opportunity to join early, work closely with the founders, and play a key role in shaping both the product and engineering culture.

What You’ll Be Working On

  • Building full-stack product features using TypeScript, React, and Next.js

  • Designing and developing secure backend APIs and production systems

  • Creating data-heavy and document-centric workflows for healthcare and compliance teams

  • Improving infrastructure, reliability, and engineering foundations

  • Collaborating directly with founders, product teams, and customers

What They’re Looking For

  • Strong full-stack software engineering experience

  • Commercial experience with TypeScript, React, and Next.js

  • Backend development experience with Node.js, Python, or similar

  • Comfortable working with databases, APIs, and scalable production systems

  • Experience in startups, scale-ups, or product-led engineering environments

Nice to Have

Experience in any of the following:

  • HealthTech

  • FinTech

  • Compliance or RegTech

  • AI/ML products

  • Security or other regulated industries

Why Join?

This is a genuinely high-impact role where you’ll have real ownership from day one — not just another engineer in a large team.

The business is still in its early stages, offering the chance to help shape the platform, influence technical decisions, and build alongside an ambitious founding team.
