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. 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, you will be mission-critical and central to shaping the core communication infrastructure of the NHS, enabling faster, safer, and more accessible patient care while leading the team that owns a specific set of capabilities within the product.

Current focus: to give a flavour of what we’re working on, we’re focused on AI Scribe across GP practices, hospitals, and other care settings, ensuring every patient leaves an appointment with a clearly documented summary; extending our expertise from total triage to improve hospital specialist services; and powering communication for Integrated Neighbourhood Teams as part of the government’s 10-year plan.

• Drive delivery of our AI and Ambient Scribe capabilities, saving healthcare professionals time and enabling them to focus more on the patient.
• Manage user-facing product features for Ambient Scribe, a key investment area in 2026 with opportunities in secondary care.
• Translate product priorities into actionable delivery plans for your team and ensure on-time delivery with visibility into progress, quality, and impact.
• Manage the processes and mechanisms used by the team to deliver on commitments.
• Lead in assessing and decomposing work, sequencing, and capacity planning in collaboration with team experts.
• Ensure the team maintains healthy, reliable systems and services.
• Guide technical direction: work with engineers to make architectural and system design decisions within the product area; champion code quality, monitoring, alerting, and service health.
• Lead and grow the team: recruit, develop, assess performance, manage promotions, and resolve conflicts to build a collaborative, high-performing culture.
• Enable cross-team success: collaborate with other engineering managers, product managers, and stakeholders to unblock dependencies and align across the business.

We seek an Engineering Manager who embodies our Principles and thrives on significant challenges. Core skills include:

• Strong technical background with experience in C# or Java, or similar within the software delivery lifecycle.
