About Vine Health
-----------------------------
Vine Health is a digital platform that uses a combination of
behavioural science and artificial intelligence to improve the quality
of life and survival of cancer patients.
Our mobile platform helps people living with cancer to collect, track
and visualise data about their care, helping them to feel more in
control. We intelligently integrate disease data (medications, symptoms,
side-effects) with lifestyle data (exercise, sleep, diet) and we use AI
to understand patterns and triggers in the data in order to personalise
the patient experience and nudge behaviour change.
We’re an early-stage startup looking to grow our company and our
product; we have an incredibly exciting journey ahead of us with plenty
of opportunities for personal development and working with a world-class
team of doctors, developers, designers and more.
Get in touch if you want to play a key role in a high-impact,
fast-growing startup and if you’re passionate about making a big impact.

About the role
-----------------------------
You will be reporting to the CTO and will be a key member of the
engineering team. You will be responsible for the development of our
patient-facing mobile application and you will help us to move from our
private beta product into full market launch later this year. Currently
the app is written in react native and served by a Firebase (GCP)
backend; you will work with our backend engineer to ensure a smooth
migration to a new backend. You’ll work in iterative cycles with our
lead UX/UI designer to ensure technical feasibility of designs and to
optimise the application for patient engagement. It’s a small team and
we all need to help each other out so there will be some exposure to
tasks outside of your core role.
We're a young company, so you'll need to get your hands dirty and no
two weeks will be the same. The ability to cope with uncertainty and
rapid change is crucial.
We're looking for someone to be a real part of the team. You spend a
lot of time with the people you work with, so we want it to be fun and
rewarding rather than feel like a chore. That means having a passion for
what we're doing, wanting to make a real difference to people's lives,
having interests outside of work, sharing knowledge with your
colleagues, and adding to our company culture.
