Senior Software Engineer

HealthTech Startup | London (Hybrid)
Salary: up to £110,000 + equity

We’re working with a scaling HealthTech startup building software that genuinely improves how primary care works in the UK. Their platform is already used at national scale, helping clinical teams act earlier, work smarter, and deliver better patient outcomes — without adding complexity or admin.

As the business continues to grow, they’re looking for a Senior Software Engineer who enjoys ownership, impact, and building production-grade systems that matter.

💡 What You’ll Be Working On

This is a product-focused engineering role where you’ll ship real features, not endless prototypes. You’ll work closely with Product and Design, influence technical decisions, and help set a higher bar across the engineering team.

Expect autonomy, responsibility, and the chance to shape how things are built as the platform scales.

Your Day-to-Day

  • Build and ship scalable, reliable software used in live healthcare environments

  • Contribute to technical direction and architectural decisions

  • Partner with Product and Design to turn real-world problems into elegant solutions

  • Improve code quality, testing practices, and delivery standards

  • Support and mentor other engineers through reviews and collaboration

  • Balance speed with long-term maintainability in a fast-moving startup

What They’re Looking For

  • Strong experience as a Senior Software Engineer in product-led teams

  • Comfortable owning features end-to-end, from design through to production

  • Pragmatic mindset — you know when to move fast and when to slow down

  • Solid hands-on experience with modern web/backend stacks, such as:

    • Python, TypeScript

    • React or similar frontend frameworks

    • Cloud environments (AWS preferred)

  • Experience working in collaborative, cross-functional teams

  • Clear communicator with an ownership mentality

  • Bonus: Exposure to HealthTech, regulated industries, or B2B SaaS
