Role
Who you are
- You have 1-2 years experience of line management in Product / Software Engineering teams
- You care deeply about people and their professional development
- You're an excellent communicator with the ability to translate complex to simple, bringing your ideas to life
- You obsess over company culture and values and bringing those into everything we do as engineers
- You're passionate about improving healthcare
- You're mission-driven and care about positively impacting the lives of others
- You're excited by change and a fast-paced learning environment
- You love solving problems, and relish the constant challenges a startup throws your way
- When you see something not working, you'll flag it and be part of the solution
- You share our values
What the job involves
- Your primary focus as an Engineering Manager I will be to do this for the engineers you manage, and to work alongside the rest of the EM team to improve our engineering organisation as we scale
- Engineering Managers at Accurx are primarily people managers; this role is very much a hands-off role, and you will not be involved generally in the day to day delivery of product teams
- As an Engineering Manager I, you’ll be managing between 4 and 8 software engineers across one or more teams and honing your craft as an Engineering Manager, growing and learning from more experienced managers around you
- Onboarding: You'll support your engineers from the moment they sign their contract, through onboarding them to the company and engineering team, to successfully completing their probation - so they can quickly become effective and productive and happy members of their team
- Performance and progression: Whilst everyone at Accurx has a performance review every 6 months, we know that progression and feedback happen more frequently than every 6 months! You will regularly hold 1:1s and have goal setting conversations with your direct reports and help give engineers a clear picture of what they need to do to progress in their careers, coaching them and helping them understand where they are performing well, and where their areas of improvement are, and helping find opportunities for them to excel. You’ll develop a deep understanding of our Career Progression Framework (and you'll help us update it where necessary to make sure it meets the needs of all our Engineers and our standards on diversity and inclusion)
- Learning and development: You'll help us ensure that engineers feel challenged, that they can learn both on and off the job effectively and there's a mixture of planned and day to day learning. You’ll help encourage a culture of learning across the engineering team
- Building great stakeholder relationships: You’ll build solid relationships with other stakeholders across the engineering team including Tech Leads, Product Managers, Clinical Leads, User Researchers, Designers and other Engineering Managers. You’ll understand and be able to communicate and motivate our company mission and vision and the OKRs of the teams that you work alongside
- Shaping engineering culture: You'll help us take the Accurx values and instil them into everything we do as Engineering leaders. You will be a role model, helping maintain our values across the whole engineering team. You’ll help, alongside other EMs, improve and iterate on our engineering organisation’s health and effectiveness
- Interviewing: You’ll play a crucial role in our hiring processes by taking part in interviews but also in scaling our processes so we can continue to attract a diverse talent pool. You'll help us build out a repeatable interview framework to support the hiring of the next 100 engineers into the business

Our take
Communication between patients and nurses/doctors has typically happened via telephone call or post. This outdated technology is costly and doesn't exactly provide a great experience. Accurx has stepped in to solve this problem with its communication and collaboration platform.
Accurx allows GPs and other healthcare providers to communicate more efficiently with their patients and with each other in order to deliver top-quality care. Its products are now used in over 95% of GP practices, a huge testament to the value of Accurx's platform.
Since raising considerable funding, Accurx has been focused on growing its team and developing its products, including batch messaging between clinics and patients, to help care sites ease the burden of long wait lists and understaffing. Alongside this, the platform recently partnered up with Tandem Health to launch an AI scribe tool for use across the NHS, so GP practices can save valuable time. Together, these developments put Accurx ins a strong position for even more growth and impact across the healthcare sector.

Diversity, Equity & Inclusion at Accurx
- Each health system is made up of a diverse workforce, serving 100% of the population. We are building for them, not us. We can only transform health systems if we build a diverse team, rich with different backgrounds, opinions and personalities.
- We particularly welcome applications from those who are significantly underrepresented in the technology sector, such as women, trans people, non-binary people, people with disabilities and people from black and underrepresented ethnic communities.
