Our LINQ platform is the software that plans, schedules, and drives life-science labs. Our clients run labs for cancer diagnostics, drug discovery, cell manufacturing, synthetic biology and more. This role owns the interface to the lab — not just the UI, but every surface someone builds on or acts through: the app a scientist touches, the APIs and SDK an integrator builds on, the CLI an engineer scripts with, the agent surface a model acts through. Most product interfaces are forms over a database. Ours front a physical world that changes by itself — robots act, schedules change, instruments fail — and every one of those surfaces has to keep its user genuinely in control. We're building the next generation of our interfaces — AI-native from the ground up: personalised to role and behaviour, UI generated on the fly where it earns its place, and agents working in the product alongside the people using it. This is a role for someone user-obsessed — the platform underneath is...

About Zego Insurance hasn't changed much in over a century. The way we live, work and travel has. Good drivers are the entire point of Zego. Seven in 10 drivers on the road are consistently good, but until telematics came along there was no way to prove it, so nearly everyone paid a price based on averages. Zego is the company built to change that.  At Zego, we're leading the AI evolution in insurance. We move fast, without the layers that usually slow things down. AI takes the routine work off every team, from Finance to Product to Marketing, so people ship real code and launch custom dashboards in minutes. Engineering commits are entirely AI-assisted, which shifts the focus from team size to the quality of your thinking, and our data warehouse connects directly to an AI assistant for instant answers. Backed by a modern tech stack (Claude Code, Snowflake, Figma and Zapier) and a commitment to adopting new tools in days rather than quarters, you get complete ownership to do...
