Senior Front-End Software Engineer

About the role

We're Cyted - a pioneering gastrointestinal health diagnostics company enabling more patients early access and detection for esophageal cancer and Barrett's esophagus. Our technology brings a minimally invasive diagnostic approach to market - our EndoSign test combines a swallowable pill-like device with advanced biomarkers and analytics to help detect disease earlier and faster. What started as an idea between a health-tech entrepreneur and leading clinical scientists at Cambridge University has quickly grown into an international company operating across the UK and US, backed by investors such as EQT Life Sciences and a $44M Series B investment. But we still work like a startup - because we are one. Things move quickly here and we build as we go. Some days you'll be solving problems first of their kind with innovative approaches. Other days you'll just need to roll your sleeves up and get things done. That's the reality of building a company that's growing fast and trying to genuinely change patient outcomes. We're a small, highly collaborative team, which means your work matters. We have the trust and belief from our investors so you won't disappear into layers of hierarchy or spend months waiting for decisions. If you have a good idea, we want to hear it, regardless of your role or title. We like people who are curious, adaptable, thoughtful, and always willing to learn and improve. This isn't a polished corporate environment where everything already exists. We're building processes, teams, products and ways of working in real time. Every day is different. If the idea of helping build something ambitious from the ground up excites you - and you want your work to have a real-world impact on people's lives - we'd love to hear from you. Our recruitment process runs through four stages and we interview on a rolling basis. Each stage has its own purpose. As we have grown, we have made each contact point based on candidate feedback, making sure you actually get a helpful insight into Cyted. We want to give you the most open & true snapshot of us no matter the role. Initial conversation - Run by Maddie from our People team, this is a relaxed online chat so we can learn more about you and your background, and so you can learn more about us too. Line manager interview - This online chat explores the role in more detail through scenario-based and role-specific questions to see how you would bring your skills and knowledge into Cyted. Team interview & assessment - To meet the wider team and see how we work in-person, we like to involve a panel of team members to listen to your ideas in either a presentation or assessment format. Final Interview - Marcel, our CEO, still speaks to every new potential employee. In this online meeting, you will get to discuss your goals and explore how they align with the company's history and future vision. Clinicians, laboratory staff, pathologists, and most of all, patients are at the heart of what you will do. Making sure they deliver and receive critical healthcare information is central to your role. You will translate complex clinical workflows into clear, accessible and scalable front-end solutions. Not just so healthcare professionals can retrieve the information they need, but can do so using a platform and interface that is seamless, effortless and intuitive. Branching out of the software engineering team, you will also leverage opportunities to work with product and clinical stakeholders internally at Cyted, and externally. With curiosity and passion, you will own and elevate discovery through to delivery whilst engaging directly with users to ground solutions in real word challenges. We love inventive and innovative perspectives to bring fresh approaches that lead the way we build robust and reusable components to strengthen the front-end architecture. Boldly raising our engineering standards across the team and internationally into the US is exactly what we want. You will immerse yourself in challenging assumptions, driving practical solutions and reliably step up to shape how our team delivers high quality to clinicians, laboratory staff, pathologists and patients. This role is a full-time position with a standard 37.5 hour working week. You will be based at the Cyted's Head Office, Ground Floor, Building 3, Old Swiss, 149 Cherry Hinton Road, Cambridge, CB1 7BX, UK and be expected to be in the office 3 days per week. User Insight and Collaboration Constantly engage directly with pathologists, clinicians, and internal service teams to understand real world workflows and pain points. Demo work regularly, inviting challenge and feedback, and iterating based on insight. Front End Development Design and build intuitive, accessible UI for laboratory staff, pathologists and clinicians. Translate complex clinical workflows into simple, effective digital experiences. Partner with backend engineers and international stakeholders to deliver a seamless end to end product. Build rob
