Who We Are
Isla Health is a venture-backed healthtech startup, supporting our partners across the UK, EU and internationally. We have built a new category of healthcare technology which we refer to as the Digital Pathway Platform (DPP). Founded in 2019, we now support 25% of NHS Trusts and see 2 million submissions on the platform every year.
As a company we are all laser focused on enabling a scalable model of care which empowers healthcare staff and improves patient outcomes. The DPP supports this by setting up digital pathways which are remote-first and asynchronous. As pathways harness sophisticated automation, clinical algorithms and intelligent cohorting, patients always take the optimised route through their pathway, thereby delivering a step change in clinical productivity.
The role
We are looking for a Senior Node.js Engineer to work closely with our product & client facing teams , understand our customer challenges, and ship things quickly to test & learn. You will design, scope, build and deploy new features quickly for our users.
You'll have high ownership over whole areas of the codebase and who features end-to-end, contributing to a platform that supports millions of patient interactions.You should be biased towards pace and experimentation and excited about solving the big challenges in healthcare.
What You'll Do
You will be joining a lean & high performing engineering organisation. We value pace, but also hold really high quality standards for each other.
We lean into modern, scalable infrastructure (Node.js, TypeScript, GCP). We prioritise tools that enable velocity - such as Terraform and automated CI/CD. We also lean heavily into AI, and you'll be able (encouraged) to use whatever tools you need to scale your own and the team's workflows

Using AI tools for your application

We encourage you to do your own research though to fully understand the company and the role you are applying to as you will be asked questions during any interview. Generic AI-generated answers are also really obvious. We'd like to get an idea of how you think early in the process; you should also make sure Isla is the right fit for you before you apply. Make AI tools work for you, not against you!
