The Opportunity :

Our client is looking for an Engineering Manager – Product Platform to strengthen the foundations of its platform engineering organisation. You will lead a group of engineering contributors and make sure the underlying software platforms stay reliable, compliant and ready for future growth.

You will manage Tech Leads and Software Engineers and keep the different teams and functions aligned. You are responsible for the health, stability and evolution of the platforms, balancing people leadership, technical direction and delivery quality. In a regulated medical device setting, you will work closely with engineering, verification, quality, security and regulatory colleagues to deliver solutions that are both innovative and compliant.

This role suits a leader who pairs technical credibility with strong people skills and enjoys complex, cross-functional environments.

Partner with stakeholders

  • Work with R&D, Quality, Regulatory and Delivery colleagues
  • Report clearly on platform health, risks and progress
  • Keep technical debt and defects visible and properly prioritised

Champion quality and compliance

  • Ensure compliance with medical device regulations and the company’s quality management system
  • Build quality into everyday engineering practice
  • Balance agile delivery with regulatory rigour

Your Profile

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
