At OKKO, we develop smartphone software to protect sight. We monitor eye health away from hospital clinics so that doctors can concentrate their in-person time on those most in need, and so that patients are in control with early identification of any problems that arise. We believe that clever data holds the key to early diagnosis and the protection of a populations’ sight. We will continue to work to eliminate avoidable blindness and to give those who live with eye disease hands-on control and an easier experience through life. Now that OKKO is growing, it's time for us to recruit a brilliant senior software developer who will free up our CTO to concentrate on business strategy. We're looking for someone to lead on the non-mobile-app side of our technology, being responsible for the web-app and server development and API integrations. As such, you'll need to be able to join our Bristol office two days per week. We're looking for someone who is mission-driven like us, someone hard-working and passionate about creating a seamless product experience for the patients and the eye doctors who use our tech. We're a deeply curious bunch and always exploring new ways of doing things better - it's important that you too are a self-starter, a passionate self-learner and that you believe you can build a better world through tech. Ultimately, we work for patients and are driven by what they need. We balance the innovative and creative with safety, and so our medical device product needs the diligence of code, of testing and of documentation that the medical industry requires. It's important that you have a good attention to detail and that you appreciate that we can't iterate everything on the fly. We're a deeply curious bunch and the person we're looking for will be a self-starter, full of initiative and always keen to learn and to bring in best practices from across the software industry.
