Overview

Healthcare systems are struggling; our solution is communication. We have a bold vision: everyone involved in a patient’s care - including the patient - should be able to communicate with each other, and we believe every NHS staff member should be using our software to make that happen. We want to make healthcare genuinely better. We are solving one of the biggest challenges of our generation, and to do this, we need the best talent possible to help us raise the bar. This is where you come in.

Our products are used daily by over 98% of GP practices and half of NHS hospitals, sending an average of over 25 million messages every month, impacting millions of lives. As an Engineering Manager, your role will be mission-critical and central to shaping the core communication infrastructure of the NHS. You will enable faster, safer, and more accessible patient care, while helping teams solve customer problems and leading the team that owns a specific set of capabilities within the product.

To give a flavour of what we’re working on now, we are focused on:

• Implementing our AI Scribe across GP practices, hospitals, and other care settings, ensuring every patient leaves an appointment with a clearly documented summary
• Translating our expertise from implementing total triage in GP practices to improve how hospital specialist services deliver care
• Powering communication for Integrated Neighbourhood Teams, a new service bringing together staff from different organisations that is pivotal to the government’s 10-year plan

The unique challenges you’ll solve

• You’ll work with a highly skilled team and flexible structure, collaborating with consultants and specialists in integrations.
• You’ll balance an evolving roadmap with bespoke requirements from new healthcare organisations while building a best-in-class product.
• You’ll manage the processes and mechanisms used by the team to deliver on commitments.
• You’ll lead in ensuring goals are achievable with appropriate assessment, decomposition of work, sequencing, and capacity planning (in collaboration with team experts).
• You’ll ensure the team manages the health of their systems confidently and responsibly.
• Guide technical direction: work with engineers to make architectural and system design decisions within the product area. Champion best practices around code quality, monitoring, alerting, and service health.
• Lead and grow your team: manage and mentor engineers, supporting recruitment, development, performance reviews, promotions, and conflict resolution. Build a collaborative, high-performing culture focused on delivering impact.
• Enable cross-team success: collaborate with other engineering managers, product managers, and stakeholders to unblock dependencies and ensure alignment across the business.

• An understanding of best practices around monitoring, alerting, and maintaining service health.
