Company mission
To improve the clinical research experience and build a better clinical research organization.
Role
Who you are
- You have 2+ years experience as a software engineer collaborating within a team
- You are product-minded: you want to understand why we are building something to figure out the best how in collaboration with product managers, designers and users
- You are comfortable working across a stack that includes frontend (TypeScript/React), backend (Python/Django/Postgres) and infrastructure (AWS). You don’t necessarily have hands-on experience with all pieces of our stack but are happy to pick up technology that’s new to you
- You can work independently but also collaborate well with others
- You are passionate and curious about our mission; changing how the healthcare industry operates and how new health treatments are developed
- You want to learn what life is like at a high-growth, mission-driven VC funded startup
What the job involves
- We are looking for a mid-level software engineer to help build the platform powering the next generation of clinical trials. Join our fast-moving team and help us scale the product to manage complex trials and bring new treatments to patients faster!
- In your first month:
- Learn about clinical trials and the problems we are trying to solve through our onboarding training and chats with people across the company
- Collaborate with the product team on starter projects and make your first commits
- Become familiar with the core components of our stack (React, TypeScript, Django, Python, Postgres, Amazon ECS)
- In your first 3 months:
- Become a part of the regular product development cycle: join a squad and deliver a feature in Citrus, our trial delivery platform
- Develop deeper understanding of one or more areas of our stack
- Contribute actively to the team’s processes and rituals, such as retrospectives and standups
- Within your first 6 months:
- Get close to users, observe the product being used in real trials and support the team in responding to feature requests and bug reports
- Take on more complex coding and design tasks
- Rotate through our support team, handling user issues and investigating and fixing bugs
- Deepen your understanding of clinical trials, and build relationships across the wider company
Application process
- Initial conversation with Sophie from our talent team (30 mins)
- Get to know each other, discuss the role, and answer any questions about Lindus
- Take home task & Expertise interview (60 mins)
- This will include a task you’ll need to prepare in advance of the interview and talk too
- Functional interview with 2 members of our engineering team (60 mins)
- Deep dive into your experience and how you'd approach key challenges
- Values interview with a co-founder and other member of the wider team (30 mins)
- A chance to get to know each other and explore how our values align
- Reference checks
- Quick conversations with previous colleagues
- We'll arrange at least one interview in-person at our office so you can meet more of the team and get a feel for our environment
Salary benchmarks
Our take
Traditional clinical research companies are often inefficient and rely upon pen and paper, even for the UK COVID-19 vaccine trial, one of the best-funded trials in history. In addition, the cost of conducting clinical trials has skyrocketed over the last decade. This, of course, stifles innovation and means fewer new treatments for patients.
In response to these challenges, Lindus Health was established with the mission to simplify patient participation in research and expedite the development of novel treatments. On a mission to change how trials are conducted in order to provide faster, safer clinical trials on behalf of companies developing new treatments, and lowering the barriers to participation for patients.
Since launching in 2021, Lindus Health has actively connected patients with clinical trials across diverse domains, encompassing areas such as type 2 diabetes, COVID-19 diagnostics, and mental health. Bolstered by several successful funding rounds, the company is poised to facilitate end-to-end clinical trials and research sponsors with high-quality data. Alongside this growth, Lindus is expanding its workforce. This strategic approach underscores its commitment to reshaping the landscape of clinical research for the betterment of patients and the advancement of medical science.

Company values
- Be transparent: We share information across the whole team, avoiding hierarchies and siloes. No politics!
- Stay curious: Deference to "the way it has always been done" is the biggest thing holding our industry back
- Be high-agency: Nothing happens unless we make it happen. We never assume something is somebody else's responsibility
- Act quickly: Once we’ve made a decision. We win by moving fast
- Benefit patients: Our mission is serious, but we’ll only achieve it if we have fun while we go. Innovation doesn’t take place in a boring environment
