Company Description
At CluePoints, we’re redefining how clinical trials are run. As the premier provider of Risk-Based Quality Management (RBQM) and Data Quality Oversight software, we harness advanced statistics, artificial intelligence, and machine learning to ensure the quality, accuracy, and integrity of clinical trial data, helping life sciences organizations bring safer, more effective treatments to patients faster.
We’re proud to be an ambitious, fast-growing technology scale-up with a dynamic and diverse international team representing more than 40 nationalities. Collaboration, flexibility, and continuous learning are part of our DNA.
At CluePoints, you’ll find a culture where you can grow, make an impact, and have fun along the way. Guided by our values of Care, Passion, and Smart Disruption, we’re united by a shared mission: to create smarter ways to run efficient clinical trials and deliver AI-powered insights that improve human outcomes worldwide.
We’re looking for an AI-First Software Engineer Engineer to help shape this next chapter.
The Role
As an AI-First Engineer, you will operate at the intersection of strong software engineering fundamentals and modern AI-assisted development. You will use state-of-the-art AI coding tools (e.g., Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, Codex-style agents) to generate and iterate on production-grade code — while applying human judgment, architectural thinking, and rigorous review to ensure quality, security, and compliance.
As part of our AI-First transformation, we are adopting Spec-Driven Development (SDD) across our engineering teams. Instead of moving straight from user stories into code, engineers write structured specifications that serve as the single source of truth for both human and AI-driven implementation. The spec is reviewed and approved before any code is written, and AI coding agents work within the constraints it defines.
Some of our squads are already working this way, and these roles will help scale the approach across the organisation. Experience with SDD frameworks such as OpenSpec, SpecKit, BMAD, or Superpowers is required.
This is not a traditional “ticket-driven” engineering role. Instead, you will:
-
Work in small, high-impact squads (4–5 people)
-
Operate within a Spec-Driven Development (SDD) framework
-
Treat AI as a powerful collaborator — not a replacement for engineering responsibility
-
Focus on integration, edge cases, system-level thinking, and production robustness
-
Your output will be amplified by AI — but your judgment will define its quality.
