Company mission
To improve the life of millions of people across the world, by enabling earlier detection, faster treatment and better management of chronic conditions.
Role
Who you are
- Love solving real-world problems through technology - especially when it makes a difference to people’s lives.
- Care about clarity, simplicity, and collaboration more than personal credit or competition.
- Being curious, humble, and eager to learn from others.
- Take pride in well-crafted code and thoughtful systems.
- Experience with ES2016+, Typescript, and asynchronous programming concepts.
- Strong knowledge of React and modern front-end frameworks.
- Familiarity with testing tools (Jest, Jasmine, Sinon, Selenium).
- Experience building responsive, cross-browser applications (HTML/CSS).
- Comfortable communicating in English and working as part of a small, dynamic team.
Desirable
- Experience in healthcare, regulated environments, or device integration is a plus - but not essential.
What the job involves
- Acurable is a fast-growing MedTech company based in London, developing accurate, user-friendly wearable medical devices that enable patients to be diagnosed and monitored at home. Our goal is to improve health outcomes, reduce pressure on healthcare systems, and transform lives. Our flagship product, AcuPebble, is the first medical device in the world to receive CE marking for the automated diagnosis of obstructive sleep apnoea at home and has also received FDA clearance. It’s already being used across healthcare systems in the UK, Europe, and the US, and has been recommended by NICE for wide use in the NHS. Backed by over 15 years of research from Imperial College London, Acurable’s technology has been recognised globally as a breakthrough in respiratory medicine- featured by BBC News, Bloomberg, and TechCrunch...and awarded an XPrize amongst many other recognitions.
- We’re now expanding our platform to better support diagnosis and management of chronic conditions. Every line of code we write contributes to technology that can genuinely change lives
- We’re looking for a thoughtful, curious Fullstack Engineer to join our software team. You’ll collaborate closely with engineers, clinical liaisons, and product experts to evolve our digital platforms. You will be working on various aspects from device connectivity to data pipelines, patient-facing tools, and clinician dashboards
- This is a hands-on, collaborative role that blends creativity with precision. You’ll design and implement solutions in JavaScript/TypeScript, building reliable, maintainable systems that meet both technical and medical-grade standards
- You’ll also play a key part in supporting our internal systems occasionally being in the London office to assist with IT infrastructure, testing setups, or other on-site needs
Salary benchmarks
Our take
London-based MedTech startup Acurable produces wearable medical devices that allow patients to be diagnosed and monitored at home. Its tech is focused on respiratory conditions such as sleep apnoea and COPD, aiming to reduce pressure on the healthcare system. Small in size and efficiency, its sensors are easy to use and, crucially, able to reduce the need for a specialist in the process of diagnosing conditions.
Acurable is responding to two major market trends. Firstly, the market for self-managed health has boomed in recent years. Consumers are already using devices such as Fitbits to track their exercise and sleep, and Acurable is betting on people taking a similar interest in their medical health. Secondly, one of healthcare's most pressing challenges is the cost of using specialists to diagnose patients. Suppose Acurable can move diagnosis away from doctors and into homes. In that case, it can free up valuable medical practitioners for the real problems that demand their expertise - boosting the company and the healthcare system.
The company's flagship product, AcuPebble SA100, was the first medical device in the world to receive CE marking for the automated diagnosis of obstructive sleep apnoea at home. If Acurable can continue the fast growth it has seen so far, it could revolutionise how we diagnose respiratory conditions. Backed by major investors and having won awards such as the XPrize, IET Innovation Award and WA4STEAM Award, it is currently expanding its remit to conditions including asthma, epilepsy and COPD.
