  • You have experience of mentoring team members, and maturing engineering processes, Whilst not required, experience in any of these areas will definitely stand out - let us know if you have any!
  • iOS/Android app development (native or otherwise)
  • Software medical devices (or another regulated industry)
  • Startup experience
  • Able to design UIs (e.g. in Figma)
