Company mission
To use the value of data generated in medicine to optimise decision making and treatment for the best possible outcome for patients.
Role
Who you are
- Experience: 5+ years of experience in UX/Product Design, with a proven track record in complex B2B environments—ideally within HealthTech, MedTech, or Life Sciences
- You are comfortable working in ambiguous, emerging problem spaces where workflows, mental models, and even terminology are still evolving
- Leadership Skills: Experience in leading or mentoring designers. You know how to give constructive feedback and how to help your team grow
- Healthcare Mindset: You understand (or are eager to learn) the nuances of medical imaging, DICOM standards, and the high-pressure environment of a hospital or diagnostic center
- Tooling & Methodology: Mastery of modern design tools (e.g., Figma) and a solid foundation in user research methodologies and rapid prototyping
- Communication: Fluent in English, with the ability to articulate design decisions to both technical teams and executive stakeholders
What the job involves
- At the core of a successful medical product is a user experience that allows clinicians to focus on what matters most: the patient. Reporting directly to the VP Product, you will be a strategic partner in shaping our Radiology Reporting platform
- In an environment where precision and speed are paramount, you will ensure that our software becomes an extension of the radiologist’s expertise. As we expand into Pathology and other healthcare verticals, you will lead the charge in defining the future of diagnostic workflows
- UX Strategy & Execution: Own the end-to-end user experience, translating complex clinical needs into intuitive, high-performance interfaces. Turn early concepts (e.g., integrating Diagnostic Imaging AI outputs into reporting) into production-ready tools used daily in clinical practice. Monitor adoption post-launch, identify friction, and iterate until workflows truly fit routine use
- Product Partnership: Work in a tight “triad” with Product and Engineering to balance user needs with technical feasibility and business goals
- People Leadership: Lead and mentor our User Researcher and UI Designer (functional & disciplinary), building a culture of mentorship, high standards, and empathy
- Clinical Workflow Optimization: Go deep on radiology (and later pathology) reporting workflows to reduce cognitive load and remove friction
- User-Centric Advocacy: Ensure user insights and data meaningfully shape product decisions across the organization
Our take
It is no secret that healthcare professionals spend an obscene amount of time on administrative tasks, which is why a number of companies are looking to bring automation to the sector. Jacobian, the result of Smart Reporting's acquisition of Fluency, is one such company, delivering data-driven, automated medical reporting to streamline the process and free up professionals so they can concentrate on their patients.
Where Jacobian catches the eye is that its solution not only speeds up reporting but also helps enhance the quality of reports and support better decision making. This, in turn, contributes to better care and patient outcomes, making the healthcare system work better for everyone.
Already regarded as a leader in the market, Jacobian is looking to expand its presence in the US, Canada, Australia and New Zealand. A significant Series C fundraise will support it in this endeavour. It has also strengthened its management team and intends to grow its portfolio of products in the future.
