“Great minds don’t think alike”
From our talented tech teams to our standout clinical expertise, we are bringing great minds together to build more accessible services. Our software supports clinicians, young people and families through some of the most important moments of their lives, so it needs to be reliable, secure and built with care.
Our values
Our values shape how we build, collaborate and care for everyone we support. We look for people whose own values align with them:
About the role
As a Software Engineer at Healios, you’ll build meaningful, well-crafted software that improves access to mental health and neurodevelopmental care. We work in a focused, remote environment that values small, collaborative teams, clear ownership and the space to do your best work without unnecessary meetings or noise.
Your work will contribute to one of our three strategic areas: improving the experience of the clinicians who use our platform, making client operations sustainable as we grow, or giving our partners the confidence to expand their work with us.
You’re a full-stack generalist who is growing into ownership. You like to take features end-to-end, you’re comfortable with ambiguity and finding your own answers, and you keep your team informed without being chased. You would rather ship something useful and improve it than wait for the perfect approach. You’ll work closely with engineers, analysts and tech associates to shape, build and ship features that are simple, scalable and useful.
Specialisms
Some engineers hold a specialism based on team needs, usually around 20% of their time. It is a chance to grow domain knowledge and take on a key responsibility. Options include infrastructure (shared tooling, environments and deployment), data insights, front-end and the design system, or engineering response.
Our stack
We build primarily in Ruby on Rails, but we hire for the engineer rather than the framework. Strong full-stack fundamentals matter more to us than years on any one tool.
If you don’t meet every point below, please apply anyway. We are more interested in how you think and learn than in a perfect checklist, and we would be glad to consider your application.

A note on your application
We use AI at Healios and we’re glad you might too. But please apply as you: we read every application, and a personal one, written in your own words and about your own experience, will stand out more than something clearly generated against this advert. Tell us who you are and why Healios, because that is what we are looking for.
How to apply
Apply through the link on this page with your CV and a short note about why this role and Healios appeal to you. A formal cover letter is not needed.
What to expect: an initial conversation with someone from the team, a practical stage that reflects the kind of work you would actually do rather than abstract puzzles, and a final conversation with the people you would be working alongside. We aim to keep this to 2 stages over around 2 weeks, and we will let you know where you stand at each step. A real person reads every application.
What’s in it for you
