We believe that building software is more about people, team culture and end-user needs than it is about algorithms, data structures, and the choice of technologies. We're looking for somebody who is ambitious and is genuinely excited about what well‑built software, supported by AI agents, can achieve in the complex space we work in.

Thalamos operates a series of products which, when combined, offer unified workflows across the NHS, social care, police and wider organisations to support those subject to the Mental Health Act. Together, these products support assessment, care and treatment in complex environments, while generating rich pathway data across a region. We want to leverage this infrastructure to expand the number of patients we can help when organisations can join up effectively and frontline staff are supported to work efficiently.
