Scale Healthcare Innovation at Zymego!
About the Opportunity
Every day, 15% of healthcare appointments are lost to last-minute cancellations, while patients wait weeks or months for care. At Zymego, we are changing that. Our intelligent scheduling platform connects patients to real-time openings, reducing delays, easing staff workloads, and making healthcare more human.
To date, we have saved clinics thousands of hours and shortened patient waiting times by over 1,000 years – and we’re just getting started.
With new funding being finalised, we are preparing to accelerate our UK launch and enterprise expansion. We are looking for a Senior Full-Stack Engineer who wants to help shape the future of digital healthcare while working in a collaborative, impact-driven team.
You will be joining a close-knit, diverse team with a mix of professional and cultural backgrounds, where we learn from each other every day.
Why This Role Stands Out
Collaborative Technical Ownership
- Design and optimise core systems: PostgreSQL schemas, GraphQL APIs (Postgraphile/TypeScript), and clinician workflows (React/MUI)
- Solve mission-critical challenges: Enhance scheduling algorithms, streamline clinic operations, and ensure compliance with healthcare regulations
- Own end-to-end feature development: From PostgreSQL schema design to React-based UI implementation
- Influence infrastructure decisions in a scaling startup where engineering excellence drives real-world impact
Technical Environment
- Backend: Node.js, TypeScript, PostgreSQL (SQL-first approach)
- Frontend: React, MUI, GraphQL
- Infrastructure: GCP, Infrastructure as Code (Pulumi), Graphile Worker
Engineering Philosophy:
- Automated testing is non-negotiable (Jest, e2e, CI/CD pipelines)
- Prioritise maintainability and scalability without over-engineering
Ideal Candidate Profile
- Senior Full-Stack Expertise: 5+ years with Node.js/TypeScript and PostgreSQL (React experience preferred)
- SQL Mastery: Schema design, query optimisation, and performance tuning
- Startup Proven: Successfully shipped and iterated on products in fast-paced environments
- Quality Advocate: Experience writing comprehensive tests and collaborating with QA processes
Differentiators:
- Familiarity with QA frameworks or test automation
- Background in regulated industries (healthcare, health-tech, fintech)
- DevOps
