Founding Engineer/Engineering Lead 2016-06-01 - 2021-06-01

As the Founding Engineer (and later Engineering Lead), I played a key role in defining and building the engineering culture and direction at Kheiron. My responsibilities included hiring and managing engineers, setting the technical direction for the internal and external products, managing the regulatory aspects of the development work, and iterating product requirements with clinicians. As the company grew, my responsibilities shifted more towards commercialisation and managing integration and deployment processes.

  • Built the engineering team from scratch to a 15-person team that could support the development and maintenance of multiple internal and external projects; designed the technical interview process and coached the team members on interview techniques
  • Led the technical work on the first successful CE Marked product release, working with the regulatory team to make sure that the medical software was designed and developed according to the standards
  • Designed and documented the steps for two large-scale retrospective clinical trials; I was responsible for running and documenting the process, from data collection through labelling and then running the medical device against the data
  • Led several large-scale data extraction projects in several countries, including negotiations with all stakeholders (clinical, regulatory, information governance, technical), designing the technical process, and leading data de-identification and transfer
