Role We're looking for a hands-on Senior Product Engineer who takes pride in writing excellent code and raises the bar for everyone around them simply by how they work. You'll partner closely with the Head of Engineering and Chief Product & Technology Officer to build scalable, enterprise-grade software. This is a deeply hands-on role. You'll spend the large majority of your time designing and shipping production code, while bringing the technical judgment, architectural thinking, and craftsmanship that make the whole team better. Key responsibilities * Own the technical delivery of key product initiatives across our Python (FastAPI), React, and Postgres stack. * Partner closely with the Head of Engineering and Chief Product & Technology Officer to translate product vision into scalable technical solutions. * Contribute to architecture discussions, code reviews, and design sessions, offering the kind of technical judgment that raises the quality bar for the whole team. * Make thoughtful tradeoffs between speed, scalability, maintainability, and customer value. * Build production software as a core individual contributor, setting a high technical standard through your own work. * Improve engineering practices around testing, observability, deployment, code quality, and operational excellence. * Work closely with Product, Design, Data Science, and the Forward-Deployed Team to solve complex customer problems. * Help shape the evolution of our platform by identifying opportunities to simplify systems, improve developer experience, and reduce technical debt. * Contribute to hiring by helping assess and welcome exceptional engineers who strengthen both our technical capabilities and our culture. What We Value * Technical excellence through action. You enjoy solving difficult technical problems yourself and naturally set a standard others want to meet. * Strong engineering judgment. You know when to build for the future and when to optimize for speed. You recognize over-engineering just as quickly as accumulating unnecessary technical debt. * Systems thinking. You naturally zoom out to understand how changes in one part of the platform affect everything downstream—from customer experience to developer productivity. * Pragmatic execution. You break complex initiatives into achievable milestones, deliver iteratively, and maintain a bias toward shipping. * Product mindset. You care deeply about the user experience and challenge requirements that don't solve the underlying customer problem. * Low ego, high standards. You care more about building great software than being the smartest person in the room. You welcome feedback and give it generously. * Collaborative instincts. You communicate clearly, bring people in early, and help create alignment across Engineering, Product, Design, Data Science, and the Forward-Deployed Teams. * Intellectual curiosity. You're energized by ambiguity and enjoy learning new technologies, domains, and approaches to solving difficult problems. What you bring * 5+ years of professional software engineering experience, with a track record of owning complex technical projects end-to-end. * Strong full-stack development experience. Comfort with Python and React is strongly preferred, but we're open to exceptional engineers from other object-oriented programming (OOP) backgrounds who can demonstrate the ability to ramp quickly. * Working knowledge of SQL. You're comfortable writing queries, understanding relational data, and reasoning about how data moves through a system. Experience with schema design and data pipelines is a plus. * Experience building scalable, secure, production-grade SaaS applications. * Deep understanding of modern software architecture, APIs, distributed systems, and cloud-native development. * A track record of raising the bar for code quality through your own work and through thoughtful code and design reviews. * Strong product judgment. You care about what the user actually experiences and will question a requirement that doesn't feel right rather than simply building what's written. * A systems mindset. You naturally zoom out and notice when something upstream or downstream of your own work is drifting out of sync. * A bias toward pragmatic delivery. You scope before you dive in, break work into shippable increments, and deliver at the pace a fast-moving company requires without over-engineering. * Strong collaborative instincts and excellent communication. You bring people into conversations early, communicate clearly in both written and verbal settings, and work effectively across Engineering, Product, Design, Data Science, and Customer Success. * Low ego, high standards. You care more about the quality of the outcome than who gets credit, and you welcome feedback without becoming defensive. * Genuine intellectual curiosity. You're energized rather than destabilized when priorities shift, and you naturally go deep on problems because you genuinely enjoy understanding how things work. Nice to have * Experience with AWS and modern deployment practices, including CI/CD, observability, monitoring, and infrastructure management. * Experience building data-intensive products or analytics platforms. * Familiarity with experimentation, statistics, or machine learning concepts. * Experience integrating AI-assisted development tools into engineering workflows. * Experience working in an early-stage, high-growth SaaS startup. * Experience building products for enterprise customers with complex technical environments. Pay range and compensation package $150,000- $224,000 + Equity + Health Benefits What You’ll Get * Competitive compensation package and benefits. * Chance to learn and collaborate with some of the most famous researchers in the AI and digital economy space: Andrew Ng, Erik Brynjolfsson, Andy McAfee, and Daniel Rock. * The unique opportunity to help build a company, culture, and products from the ground up with a team that values healthy working practices. * A high-trust, high-autonomy work environment. At Workhelix, we stand committed to ensuring an environment of mutual respect where equal employment opportunities are available without any discrimination. We believe diversity is critical to our success. Selection for employment will solely be based on qualifications, merit, and business needs. We encourage all qualified individuals to apply!

ACCURX IS SOLVING HEALTHCARE PRODUCTIVITY FOR THE NHS For decades, the NHS has struggled with fragmented systems that make simple tasks feel impossible. At Accurx, we’re changing that by building a single, system-wide platform that helps every patient get gold-standard, efficient, and joined-up care. What started as a way for GPs to text a patient, has now evolved into an all-in-one digital toolkit used by 98% of GP practices and 68% (and growing!) of NHS Trusts. Our platform now powers Total Triage to manage patient demand, and Self-Book that lets patients schedule their own appointments in seconds. We’ve automated routine care with Patient Questionnaires for long-term conditions, while Accumail finally allows staff-to-staff communication to happen instantly across different care settings. We’re now pushing the boundaries of the consultation itself with Accurx Scribe, our AI-powered note-taker that drafts medical notes in real-time. We’re not just shipping features. We’re giving clinicians their time back and ensuring every patient journey is as smooth as it should be.
