The Role

Flok is building the new standard for healthcare delivery, with engineering as a secret weapon. We believe great software (including AI) has the potential to massively reduce the level of healthcare scarcity felt all around the world, and we are working on making that future happen.

We don''t shy away from hard problems that stand in the way of the best patient experience. Our systems includes a custom decision engine, real-time video streamer, and class IIa medical device, across a mix of Python, Rust and Typescript. Even before LLMs made it a more common choice, we biased towards building internal tools wherever we could see an opportunity to automate work and give ourselves more power.

Over the next 18-24 months we are expanding our geographical and product footprint, which will be challenging on multiple levels: Our infrastructure will need to mature, our custom software will need to be generalised as we treat more clinical conditions, and our collection of internal tools will need to grow, particularly across operations & data.

If you''re a generalist engineer who wants responsibility and ownership, come and help us do that. You''ll particularly fit in if any of these sound like you:

• you have experience of scaling web applications, particularly involving video/data distribution
• you really care about user experiences and think you have good product taste
• you have mathematical background/inclination
• you have built low level or embedded software
• you have worked on decision/rule systems

We believe technology is (and always has been) the best way to improve peoples'' lives, as long as it is used for good.

What You''ll Do

Your day-to-day work will be varied, including:

• Building new product features (full-stack, with frontend focus)
• Designing non-functional app features (e.g. offline support, improving observability)
• Contributing to technical roadmap planning
• Working with product/UX to iterate on the app design and requirements
• Participating in bug triage/diagnosis and incident investigations
• Improving test coverage of the app (especially across a variety of user devices)
• Making data driven decisions about app changes

Our primary stack: Python, Typescript, Rust.

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 enjoy working with design and product teams to help shape exceptional products
• You care deeply about your users - championing great experience and access to quality clinical care
• You take initiative and ownership of your work, and communicate clearly
• Very little intimidates you technically - it may take a while, but you can build it

We''re hiring for this role at a range of seniority levels. Additionally, for more experienced hires:

• You''ve built, scaled and maintained consumer-facing applications
• You have experience of mentoring team members, and maturing engineering processes
• You have adopted AI tooling and have well-formed opinions of its benefits & problems

Bonus Points

Whilst not required, experience in any of these areas will definitely stand out - let us know if you have any!

• Full stack web development
• iOS/Android app development (native or otherwise)
• Software medical devices (or another regulated industry)
• Startup experience
• Able to design UIs (e.g. in Figma)
• Video streaming and/or real-time technologies

What We Offer

• Challenging work at the frontier of AI-native healthcare
• In-person collaborative culture in a beautiful work space in the Cambridgeshire countryside
• An onsite gym and digital health subscription of your choice
• Early stage equity with employee-friendly terms (via an EMI scheme)
• Comprehensive medical coverage (including dental and optical) and life insurance
• Optional remote working on Wednesdays, with an annual allowance of 10 extra remote days
• Desk setup allowance for your favourite keyboard / mouse / whatever!
• Monthly team feasts (and the BBQ is used most days)
• A fast paced work environment geared towards excellence and professional growth (with annual training budget)
• A chance to have a big impact in a small team transforming care and outcomes at population scale
