Our mission

All new medicines need to undergo clinical trials to show they’re safe and effective. But today’s clinical trial infrastructure is stuck in the past, and the cost of developing new medicines has skyrocketed as a result. Patients have to wait longer and pay more for new treatments.

Our mission is to fix this; we use software to help innovative companies run faster, more reliable, and patient-friendly clinical trials. We’re still a young company, but we’ve already had a big impact. Since founding the company in March 2021 we’ve helped run over 80 clinical trials involving tens of thousands of patients, with a customer NPS of 100.

We recently raised a $18m Series A round from some great investors including Creandum, Peter Thiel and Firstminute to power the next stage of our growth.

You will sit within our Clinical Operations function, working closely with both the wider Clinical Operations team and Product team to help us deliver end to end trials.

  • You have high agency and a bias for action
  • You are passionate and curious about our mission; changing how the healthcare industry operates and how new health treatments are developed
  • You want to learn what life is like at a high-growth, mission-driven VC funded startup

You belong here! If your experience and interests match with some of the above, we want you to apply.
