Do you want to be part of a team that plays a pivotal role in building a world-class platform that is transforming healthcare and improving lives?

WRK Digital is delighted to partner with an innovative healthcare company whose software is used by millions of people in the UK daily, enhancing lives. Ranked among the top HealthTech organisations worldwide, the team is committed to developing the next generation of healthcare technology that truly makes a difference.

Their products lead the way in delivering patient-centered, connected, digitally-enabled health and care services.

As a Software Engineer, you'll be working on cloud infrastructure at scale, utilising a tech stack that includes Python, SQL, and Terraform (or CloudFormation), all hosted in AWS.

The team has built a sophisticated data platform to help the NHS manage one of the richest healthcare datasets. Currently, this platform houses 1 petabyte of data and can query 1.5 billion rows per second. This role provides an opportunity to work on Big Data applications and learn technologies such as PySpark, Airflow, Trino, and more.

Its a collaborative, fully remote UK-based team, passionate about their work and committed to having fun along the way. While remote, there is also the option to work from tech hubs in Leeds or London (Paddington) for those who value time on-site. Plus, there are optional quarterly team socials.

The team believe in the power of technology to make healthcare faster, better, and more accessible for all. In this role, you'll spend 75% of your time focused on improving software and 25% working directly with customers to understand their needs and help them leverage the platform. You'll be able to see the real-world impact of your work every day.

Key responsibilities include:

- Involvement in all aspects of the development lifecycle, from architecture and code reviews to testing and hands-on coding
- Supporting product enhancements, adding new features, and improving functionality
- Collaborating closely with your team, providing guidance to peers, and actively contributing to technical discussions
- Developing solutions to complex challenges
