• Collaborate closely with the team to translate scientific insights into reliable and user-friendly software.
• Ensure all digital systems comply with GDPR, cybersecurity requirements, and applicable medical software standards.
• Contribute to continuous improvement in performance, usability and data integrity across the platform.
