Jobs

Technical Co-Founder

We’re looking for a technical co-founder to join us at the very start of an ambitious venture at the intersection of science and AI.   Our focus is on building intelligent multi-agent systems for research and clinical trial management (e.g. study protocols, research designs). Beyond this, we are also developing specialised environments in which agents can be trained and operate.

We’re searching for someone to apply and extend existing LLMs—turning them into working applications that deliver real value. You’ll thrive here if you enjoy a collaborative startup culture, want to shape the product direction, and are ready to invest time and energy in building something impactful from the ground up.

In return, you’ll work on the technical development of a company using the latest AI technologies in a flexible, innovative way. We provide access to an established healthcare network and unique industry insights, allowing you to test and refine solutions in real-world settings. Your work will directly shape both product and business, with the potential to build something transformative—and very successful—together.
What we’re looking for
  • Problem solver – able to design creative and novel solutions.
  • Fast learner – comfortable adapting to rapidly changing technologies and startup dynamics.
  • Self-starter – no manager, but plenty of freedom; you’ll set your own direction.
  • Forward-deployed engineer mindset – build with the client, not just for them (and use AI effectively in doing so).
  • Abstract thinker – can step back, see the bigger picture, and model systems.
  • Creative and versatile – willing to explore areas outside your core expertise.
  • Effective builder – able to move quickly, write solid code, and leverage AI tools for speed and scale.
  • Private sector and international experience (preferred) – familiarity with industry settings and working across different markets is a strong advantage.
Preferred backgrounds include: computer science, mathematics, physics, engineering, philosophy, cognitive science, or other interdisciplinary fields.
Areas you can work on
  • Environments – creating client-specific environments for agents (states, actions, rules).
  • Evals – measuring performance and defining success.
  • Complex agent systems – multi-agent and multi-user interactions.
  • Long-running agents – persistent systems that retain state and function as “digital employees.”
  • Context engineering – selecting and compressing context, including retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) and prompt engineering.
  • Reinforcement learning – teaching agents to act effectively within environments.
  • Post-training – RLHF and fine-tuning models (later stage).
  • Software architecture & design – building a scalable, secure, and maintainable foundation.
Our current technology stack includes:
  • Backend: Python, Docker, cloud deployment (AWS / GCP / Azure).
  • Frontend: JavaScript/TypeScript, React (web), React Native (mobile).
  • AI integration: LangGraph for orchestration.
Additionally, you won’t be working alone—two team members have technical skills in data science and programming.

If this sounds interesting, we’d love to hear from you. Just drop us an email with a short note and your LinkedIn so we can connect—no formal application needed. Finding the right co-founder is as much about shared vision as it is about skills, so even if you’re unsure whether you’re the right fit, get in touch and let’s explore together.
