Senior Automation Engineer

Join Heidi as a Senior Automation Engineer to design and maintain innovative automation solutions in healthcare. A chance to impact 2.5 million patient sessions weekly.

• Design, build, and maintain Heidi's deterministic automation engine for interacting with EHRs that lack a native integration.
• Build UI-automation flows (accessibility-tree mapping, templated field entry, structured write-back) across web and desktop systems that reliably push data into third-party software.
• Implement patient-matching and validation logic so data lands on the correct record every time, with patient data safety as a non-negotiable constraint.
• Prototype with AI-assisted tools like Claude Code and Cursor to ship in days, then harden what works into production-grade code.
• Embed with health systems and their IT teams during live rollouts: map the real workflow on site, close the gaps, get them live.
• Engineer work queues, retries and exception handling so automations run unattended and failures are caught and explainable rather than silent.
• Harden flows against UI drift and edge cases, and decide with Product and Integrations where automation is the right route versus where a native integration should be built instead.
• Treat every automation as a product: instrument runs, measure reliability, and own the tooling and docs that let other engineers extend the engine to new EHRs.

• Equity from day one. When Heidi wins, you win. You'll share directly in the success you help create.
• Your health, covered. Comprehensive private medical and dental cover through Bupa, plus 24/7 mental health, coaching and wellbeing support through Sonder and a £100/month Healthy Heidi’s stipend.
• Global parental leave. 26 weeks paid for primary carers and 18 weeks for secondary carers, subject to eligibility.
• Fertility support. £7,000 one-off payment, eligibility applies.
• Learning & development. £700 per year for courses, books, memberships, conferences and more.
• Home office budget of £500 one-off to set up a workspace you actually want to work in.
• Recharge days after major milestones and busy periods so you can reset and come back strong.
• Work from anywhere for up to 4 weeks per year, wherever the world takes you.
• Clinical leave. 10 days per year for eligible clinical roles to maintain accreditation and requirements.
• Flexibility that works. A hybrid environment, with 3 days in the office.
