Company mission
To enable dental practices to stop guessing, and start growing.
Role
Who you are
- Experienced and technically confident, with at least 2-3 years building production-grade systems. You’ve worked in fast-paced environments where you’ve had to ship fast, but cleanly.
- Self-directed and execution-focused – you like owning blocks of work and running with them. You’re comfortable scoping, sense-checking approaches, and delivering solid code without micromanagement
Desirable
- Full-stack (or backend leaning) experienced – you’re confident working across services, APIs, and infrastructure. You’re comfortable making architectural decisions, integrating with external systems (e.g. payments, 3rd parties), and writing clean, maintainable code
- Product-minded, not just task-minded. You care about the outcome, not just the code. You ask why, not just what
- Quality-driven – you balance speed with technical rigour. You know where to be scrappy and where to go deep
- Hungry to grow – you constantly look to improve your craft, experiment with new tools, and push for better ways of building and working
- Team-oriented, with a desire to contribute beyond your role — whether that’s to engineering culture, product thinking, or the broader business as we grow
- Comfortable with uncertainty: You thrive in dynamic environments where priorities can shift, and you’re not afraid to suggest changes, challenge ideas, or throw away work that isn’t achieving the desired results
What the job involves
- Building reliable, scalable systems: Work on backend-heavy infrastructure powering complex integrations (e.g. PMS and Payments), payment workflows, and internal tooling
- Own blocks of work: Take chunky problems from idea to deployed product — making smart decisions, aligning with the team, and delivering production-grade solutions
- Collaborate deeply with product and commercial teams: We’re a tight team — engineers at Medfin get stuck into product thinking, commercial goals, and user context
- Drive engineering quality: Bring strong engineering principles, clean code, and a desire to improve how we work
- Move quickly without cutting corners: Know when to be scrappy, when to go deep. You build good systems that last, fast
Application process
- 1. Intro call with Matthew (co-founder & CTO) ~15-20 mins: You’ll discuss your experiences, your ambitions, and how Medfin aligns with your goals
- 2. Intro call with Daniel (co-founder & CEO) ~15-20 mins: Building on the first interview, you’ll go further into your past experiences and motivations for the role
- 3. Take Home Coding Test ~2-3 hrs: You'll tackle a coding exercise, giving us insight into how you approach problems
- 4. On-site Interviews ~2 hrs: Discuss your coding test submission; A white board session to design a new system; Interview with each team member, explore our product hands-on, and experience our working culture firsthand
- 5. Final On-site Chat with the Co-founders ~1 hr: You’ll have a final chat with Matthew and Daniel to understand team fit

Our take
There's more to running a dental practice than just treating teeth; think managing people, numbers, and data. However, many practice owners are flying blind, with outdated software that leaves them guessing about their true performance. Because of this, it can be tough for them to boost profits or even know where and how to improve.
Medfin is stepping in to change the game by turning practice data into clear, actionable roadmaps. It plugs into existing tools (like Dentally and Xero), then uses AI to clean, analyse, and visualise key numbers in real time. It gives practices a single truth source so they know how and where to improve their services.
