Join the Helix team
We are an interdisciplinary team of designers, technologists, clinicians and researchers. We have unique access to the frontline of care, starting with our base in a large London hospital.
- We employ human-centred design principles to rapidly dissect problems and identify opportunities.
- We use agile software development methodologies to create digital products that can be robustly tested and evidenced in real clinical environments.
- We work with independent clinical researchers to measure and evaluate health outcomes.
If you are working in this way in an adjacent or relevant field, we would love to hear from you.

A helix designer observing a clinical meeting
"Working within Helix has brought me experiences I never thought I would have as a designer, seeing the world of healthcare from the inside, that is both inspiring and challenging. Furthermore, working in health draws a wonderful bunch of people who are motivated by making a positive impact on the world, as well as using their creativity and entrepreneurialism."
