Cure Talent are delighted to be partnered with an emerging wearable medical technology company at a defining stage of its growth. Developing next-generation optical monitoring solutions designed to deliver medical-grade physiological insights beyond the hospital environment, the business is now transitioning from research and development into industrialisation and regulated market entry.

We have an opportunity for a Software Engineer to join the organisation at a pivotal point in its journey. This role will play a key part in developing the software ecosystem surrounding a next-generation wearable medical device platform, with a particular focus on SDK development, desktop applications and third-party integration. Working closely with firmware, hardware and data science teams, you will help translate advanced physiological monitoring technology into robust, compliant software solutions suitable for clinical studies and commercial deployment.

Key responsibilities

* Develop SDKs and software interfaces enabling third-party integration with wearable medical devices and physiological monitoring platforms

* Design and develop desktop applications supporting clinical studies, device configuration and customer integration activities

* Support the integration of signal processing algorithms into validated, production-ready software solutions

* Work closely with firmware, hardware and data science teams to ensure reliable communication, data transfer and system integration

* Generate and maintain software documentation, traceability, verification and validation activities in accordance with IEC 62304

* Contribute to software architecture, development processes and testing approaches suitable for regulated medical device environments

Experience and skills required

* Experience developing desktop applications using technologies such as C#, .NET, C++ or similar

* Experience building APIs, SDKs, software interfaces or integration layers for connected devices

* Proven experience working within medical devices or other regulated environments, with hands-on exposure to IEC 62304

* Experience integrating software with BLE, wireless devices or other connected hardware systems

* Strong understanding of verification, validation, traceability and medical device software development processes

* Comfortable working within a small, multidisciplinary product development team

If you're a software engineer looking to play a key role in bringing next-generation wearable medical technology to market, whilst working at the intersection of software, hardware, data science and clinical innovation, we'd love to hear from you

Where to Advertise Biotech Jobs in the UK (2026 Guide)

Where to advertise biotech jobs UK in 2026: the specialist boards, academic networks and trade channels that reach biotech R&D and bioprocessing talent. The candidate pool spans life scientists, computational biologists, regulatory specialists and biomanufacturing engineers — each with distinct professional networks and job search behaviours. General job boards reach a broad audience but lack the specificity that biotech professionals expect. Specialist platforms, academic channels and sector-specific communities each serve a different part of the market. This guide, published by BiotechnologyJobs.co.uk, covers where to advertise biotech roles in the UK in 2026, how the main platforms compare, what employers should expect to pay, and what the data says about hiring across different role types.

Biotech Jobs UK 2026: What to Expect Over the Next 3 Years

Biotech Jobs UK 2026: roles, salaries and the genomics, cell therapy and AI-driven drug discovery hiring trends shaping UK biotech careers. Biotechnology is creating jobs at a rate that few other sectors can match. New disciplines are emerging from research labs and entering commercial hiring pipelines, existing roles are fragmenting into deeper specialisms, and the technologies driving it all — from AI-assisted drug discovery to next-generation gene editing — are advancing faster than the workforce can keep pace with. For job seekers, this creates an unusual challenge. In most industries, career planning means navigating a relatively familiar landscape and identifying where your skills fit. In biotech, that landscape is being actively redrawn. The roles generating the most hiring activity in 2028 may look quite different from the ones appearing in job adverts today. That's not a reason to feel overwhelmed — it's a reason to get informed. The candidates who thrive in this market aren't always those with the longest CVs or the most letters after their name. They're the ones who understand where the sector is heading: which disciplines are gaining commercial traction, which technologies are driving employer demand, and how the definition of a "biotech job" is expanding well beyond traditional pharmaceuticals and research roles. This article breaks down what the UK biotech jobs market is likely to look like over the next three years — covering emerging job titles, the technologies reshaping hiring, the skills employers are prioritising right now, and how to position your career ahead of the curve rather than behind it.
