Founding Engineer (£60k–£80k + Equity) at ThinkDivergent - Building the Neurodevelopmental OS

Company Description: ThinkDivergent - Building the AI-powered Neurodevelopmental Operating System (NDOS)

Job Description:
Join ThinkDivergent as our first engineering hire to revolutionize neurodevelopmental care. You will work directly with the CTO to build an AI-native platform that replaces manual NHS processes with intelligent workflows for ADHD and autism assessments. This is a high-autonomy role focused on creating production-grade healthcare software that impacts real patient lives.

Why this role is remarkable:

• Be the first engineering hire at a revenue-generating startup already operating live contracts within the NHS and private healthcare sector.

• Work in a true AI-first environment using tools like Cursor and Claude to design agentic workflows rather than manually writing boilerplate code.

• Directly influence the architecture and culture of a company solving the five-year waiting list crisis for neurodivergent patients through scalable infrastructure.

What you will do:

• Build core platform features end-to-end across a stack featuring React, Python Cloud Functions, Firebase, and GCP infrastructure.

• Take full ownership of system reliability and resilience, ensuring production-grade stability for clinicians and patients under stress.

• Collaborate with the CTO to shape product direction, exploring how AI can streamline referral, triage, and clinical decision-making pathways.

The ideal candidate:

• Possesses 1–4 years of full-stack experience with a natural instinct for building intuitive, beautiful frontend interfaces that improve clinical usability.

• Is an AI-native developer who uses LLM tools as their default workflow but possesses the technical rigour to validate and refine generated outputs.

• Demonstrates high agency and edge-case thinking, instinctively anticipating how systems might fail in complex, regulated healthcare environments.

We never post fake jobs

This isn't a trick. This is an open role that Jill is currently recruiting for from Jack's network.
Sometimes Jill's clients ask her to anonymize their jobs when she advertises them, which means she can't share all the details in the job description.
We appreciate this can make them look a bit suspect, but there isn't much we can do about it.

Give Jack a spin! You could land this role. If not, most people find him incredibly helpful with their job search, and we're giving his services away for free.
