Our vision is a new category of habit-forming healthcare globally; one that is patient-centred, predictive, and intrinsically scalable. We're a digital-native healthcare provider, using personalised video streams to deliver treatment pathways at population scale, with transformative economics. By personalising each patient's interaction in real-time, we deliver world-class medical treatment in an engaging consumer experience.
Engineering, Full-time, Cambridge (UK)
Data Engineer
The Role
We're looking for a data engineer driven by patient impact and facilitating data driven decision making. We're still small, so you'd be the sole engineer focused solely on the data side of things (at least initially).
What You'll Do
Your day-to-day work will be impactful and varied, including:
Analysing patient data - running queries to generate plots/visualisations and data summaries
Building an internal data platform to allow non-technical colleagues to self-serve with their data queries
Working with the UX team to iterate the app design and requirements through data driven decisions
Coming up with interesting questions to ask about our data to inform product decisions
Improving our application and data model to capture high quality data
Exemplifying best practice for medical data storage, security and privacy
You’ll collaborate closely with the rest of the engineering / UX team, work directly with company leadership, and see the impact of your work on real patients.
About You
You have strong programming skills in Python and its data science ecosystem
You are a software professional, who knows the difference between research and production code
You have good mathematical fluency (particularly around probability, statistics and information theory)
You enjoy working with design and product teams to help shape exceptional products
You care deeply about users - championing great experience and access to quality clinical care
You can communicate your work clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences
You take initiative and ownership of your work
Bonus Points
Whilst not required, experience in any of these areas will definitely stand out - let us know if you have any!
Working with medical data (or other sensitive data)
Creating visual tools (e.g. interactive dashboards) for data exploration by others with good UX
Good ML fundamentals (e.g. could build a small neural network from scratch)
