📍 Oxford (Hybrid: 2–3 Days Onsite) | Medical Imaging | Purpose-Led Tech

Have you worked with medical imaging systems and want to take your next big step?

Are you ready to join a team where your experience will be recognised, valued, and put to life-saving use?

Looking for a flexible hybrid role with exciting tech and real impact?

We’re working with a leading health-tech organisation whose platform is transforming how clinicians detect and prevent serious medical conditions. They’re now looking for a Senior Software Engineer with strong medical imaging experience to join their engineering team based in Oxford.

This is a unique opportunity to contribute to a cloud-based software solution that supports early diagnosis through advanced imaging and AI. The team operates at the cutting edge of medical device software development, and your input will help shape scalable, secure systems used in real-world clinical settings.

Why This Role is Great

  • Play a key role in building imaging-focused software systems that are already used in hospitals and research centres.

  • Work on projects involving CT, MRI and other imaging formats, helping clinicians make better-informed decisions.

  • Collaborate with highly skilled engineers and researchers, gaining exposure to full-stack development, cloud platforms, and regulatory frameworks.

  • Enjoy a hands-on, fast-paced environment where your ideas are encouraged and your experience is valued.

  • Flexible hybrid working with 2–3 days onsite per week, in a supportive, cross-functional team setting.

  • A competitive salary of ÂŁ60,000 to ÂŁ70,000 with a bonus scheme, private healthcare, enhanced pension and more.

  • Visa sponsorship available for those currently in the UK and eligible for transfer.

    About You

    You’re a confident and capable engineer with experience in healthcare software, particularly in medical imaging. You enjoy working on complex systems and thrive in environments where you can pick things up quickly and take ownership of key projects.

    You may bring experience like:

  • 3 to 5 years of hands-on software engineering, ideally in the medical device or healthcare sector.

  • Solid understanding of how distributed systems are built, maintained and scaled.

  • Familiarity with DICOM, HL7, FHIR, and formats used in CT or MRI workflows.

  • Proficiency in Python, or an eagerness to work with it in a production environment.

  • Experience with cloud platforms, particularly AWS, and developing within modern software pipelines.

  • Ability to communicate clearly, collaborate effectively and work independently where needed.

    What You’ll Be Working With

  • Python-based services deployed in a cloud-native architecture.

  • Data pipelines and algorithms for medical imaging analysis.

  • Interfaces with hospital systems and data formats such as DICOM and FHIR.

  • A team that combines engineering, research and operations, all working towards meaningful health outcomes.

    Benefits Snapshot

  • ÂŁ60,000 – ÂŁ70,000 base salary, plus performance bonus (details TBC)

  • Hybrid working (Oxford office, 2–3 days onsite preferred)

  • Private medical insurance and life cover

  • 25 days holiday plus public holidays

  • Enhanced pension scheme

  • Cycle-to-work scheme

  • Relocation support and visa sponsorship (where applicable)

    Inclusion Matters

    We and our client are committed to diverse hiring. If you bring relevant experience in imaging, data, or regulated environments - even if not from a traditional medical background - we encourage you to apply. If you meet most of the brief, please get in touch.

Why Data Engineering Careers in the UK Are Becoming More Multidisciplinary

For many years, data engineering in the UK meant designing pipelines, moving data between systems, and ensuring analysts had what they needed. Today, the field is expanding. With cloud platforms, machine learning, real-time analytics and the explosion of sensitive personal data, employers expect data engineers to do much more. Modern data engineering is no longer just about code and storage. It requires legal awareness, ethical judgement, psychological insight, linguistic clarity and human-centred design. These disciplines shape how data is collected, processed, explained and trusted. In this article, we’ll explore why data engineering careers in the UK are becoming more multidisciplinary, how law, ethics, psychology, linguistics & design now influence job descriptions, and what job-seekers & employers must do to thrive.

Data Engineering Team Structures Explained: Who Does What in a Modern Data Engineering Department

Data has become the lifeblood of modern organisations. Every sector in the UK—finance, healthcare, retail, government, technology—is increasingly relying on insights derived from data to drive decisions, deliver products, and improve operations. But raw data on its own isn’t enough. To make data useful, reliable, secure, and scalable, companies must build strong data engineering teams. If you’re recruiting for data engineering or seeking a role, understanding the structure of such a team and who does what is essential. This article breaks down the typical roles in a modern data engineering department, how they collaborate, required skills and qualifications, expected UK salaries, common challenges, and advice on structuring and growing a data engineering team.
