Software Engineer – Clinicial Background

Company: Heidi
Apply for the Software Engineer – Clinicial Background
Location: London
Job Description:

Overview

Heidi is building an AI Care Partner that supports clinicians every step of the way, from documentation to delivery of care. We exist to double healthcare’s capacity while keeping care deeply human. Founded by clinicians, Heidi brings together clinicians, engineers, designers, scientists, creatives, and mathematicians, working with a shared purpose: to strengthen the human connection at the heart of healthcare. Backed by nearly $100 million in total funding, Heidi is expanding across the USA, UK, Canada, and Europe, partnering with major health systems including the NHS, Beth Israel Lahey Health, MaineGeneral, and Monash Health, among others.

We move quickly where it matters and stay grounded in what’s proven, shaping healthcare’s next era. Ready for the challenge?

The Role

Working closely with the Product Lead, you will be an Engineer who operates at the intersection of core product development and clinical application. This role requires formal medical training and real clinical experience. Your clinical background will directly inform how we design, evaluate, and ship AI features that support real-world care delivery. Experience working on clinical AI products is highly valued, as you’ll be shaping systems that must perform safely in production environments.

What You’ll Do

  • Build end-to-end AI features: Architect and ship fullstack solutions (from React frontends to Python backend services) that leverage our voice AI and LLMs to automate clinical workflows.
  • Operationalize Voice AI: Implement and fine-tune audio processing pipelines, ensuring our Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) and LLM agents perform accurately in diverse, real-world medical environments.
  • Bridge the gap between model and product: Translate complex feedback from clinicians into technical solutions, rapidly prototyping and deploying improvements to model behavior, prompting strategies, and audio handling.
  • Optimise for real-time interaction: Tune fullstack performance to handle real-time audio streaming and token generation, minimizing latency so clinicians have a seamless conversational experience.
  • Partner with implementation and clinical teams: Shorten the feedback loop by shipping critical integrations and feature requests from concept to production in days, not quarters.

What We Will Look For

  • Mastery of Fullstack fundamentals: Proficiency in Python and modern frontend frameworks (React/TypeScript), capable of owning a feature from the database schema to the UI interaction.
  • Applied AI & Voice fluency: Working knowledge of LLM integration (RAG, prompt engineering) and audio technologies (ASR, speech processing) and how to build around their probabilistic nature.
  • Pragmatic problem solving: Balance engineering purity with speed; know when to build a robust system and when to ship a tactical solution to unblock a customer.
  • Cloud fluency (AWS or GCP): Ability to spin up infrastructure (containers, serverless functions) and manage CI/CD pipelines to deliver code to users independently.
  • Rigorous testing in production: Implement observability and feedback loops to monitor AI feature performance in real-world use.
  • Medical degree with clinical experience, and ideally experience working on clinical AI products.

What Do We Believe In?

  • We build for the future of healthcare, not just the next quarter, aiming for progress through precision, pace, and ownership.
  • Live Forever – Every release moves care forward: measured, safe, and built to last. Data guides us, but patients define the truth that matters.
  • Practice Ownership – Decisions follow logic and proof, not hierarchy. Exceptional care demands exceptional standards in our work, our thinking, and our character.
  • Small Cuts Heal Faster – Stability earns trust; speed delivers impact. Progress is about learning fast without breaking what people depend on.
  • Make others better – Feedback is direct, kindness is constant, and excellence lifts everyone. Our success is measured by collective growth, not individual output.
  • Our mission is clear: expand the world’s capacity to care, and do it without losing the humanity that makes care worth delivering.

Why You Should Join Heidi

  • Real product momentum. A rare chance to create a global impact as you contribute to Australia’s fastest growing start-up.
  • Equity from day one. You’ll share directly in the success you help create.
  • Unmatched impact. Play a pivotal role at a critical growth moment with a product delivering tangible value to clinicians and patients daily.
  • Work alongside world-class talent. Join a team of operators and builders who’ve scaled unicorns.
  • Global reach. Help shape international expansion as Heidi enters key markets.
  • Growth and balance. Personal development budget, wellness days, subsidised gym, and a birthday off to recharge.
  • Flexibility that works. A hybrid environment with three days in the office.

Heidi’s commitment to Diversity, Equity and Inclusion

Heidi is dedicated to creating an equitable, inclusive, and supportive work environment that brings people together from diverse backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives. Our strength is in our differences. We are proud to be an equal opportunity employer and welcome all applicants as we promote a culture of opportunity for all.

Help us reimagine primary care and change the face of healthcare in Australia and then around the world.
