Position: Head of Technology & Engineering

Career Path: Executive Growth Track (Future C-Level Responsibility)

Employment Type: Full-Time

Location: Flexible


We are building next-generation solutions aimed at transforming how complex infusion-based treatments are delivered. By replacing error-prone manual steps with intelligent, connected systems, our technology increases safety, efficiency, and accessibility for patients and healthcare professionals alike.

Our work sits at the intersection of hardware, software, and clinical workflows. The organization is entering a critical phase: transitioning from validated concepts and prototypes to scalable, regulated products ready for real-world deployment.

To lead this phase, we are seeking a senior technology leader who combines strategic thinking with hands-on product development experience.


Role Summary

As Head of Technology & Engineering, you will take ownership of the technical roadmap and execution strategy for a complex, connected hardware platform. Working closely with founders and key stakeholders, you will translate an ambitious product vision into a manufacturable, compliant, and market-ready solution.

This role is designed for an experienced engineering leader who has successfully guided sophisticated hardware products from early concept through industrialization and launch. Deep medical device expertise is not mandatory; proven delivery experience in regulated or high-reliability hardware environments is essential.


Key Responsibilities

End-to-End Product Ownership

  • Drive the evolution from early-stage concepts and prototypes to a fully approved, production-ready device
  • Establish and oversee an iterative, user-driven development process that rapidly incorporates feedback from real-world use
  • Balance technical excellence, usability, regulatory constraints, and time-to-market considerations


Leadership & Team Development

  • Build, lead, and mentor a multidisciplinary team spanning hardware, software, and applied engineering disciplines
  • Create an environment that encourages accountability, innovation, and continuous improvement
  • Enable effective collaboration across technical and non-technical functions to ensure alignment from idea to deployment


Cross-Functional & External Collaboration

  • Act as a key technical counterpart to clinical partners, regulatory specialists, and external advisors
  • Ensure that quality, safety, and compliance requirements are met while maintaining development momentum
  • Support decision-making at leadership level with clear technical insights and risk assessments


Ideal Background

  • Senior leadership experience in engineering or technology management roles
  • Proven success delivering complex physical products into regulated or safety-critical markets
  • Strong understanding of structured product development processes and lifecycle management
  • Experience working with interdisciplinary teams and external stakeholders
  • Ability to operate effectively in fast-moving, resource-conscious environments
  • Strategic mindset paired with a pragmatic, execution-focused approach


What This Role Offers

  • A pivotal leadership position with direct influence on company direction and product impact
  • Opportunity to help shape a technology platform with meaningful societal and clinical relevance
  • Close collaboration with a motivated, mission-driven founding and leadership team
  • Long-term growth perspective with potential transition into executive-level responsibility
