About Scarlet
Scarlet empowers companies building the software that’ll bring accessible and affordable healthcare to everyone on the planet.
We believe in an exciting future, where software is ubiquitous in healthcare, delivering better outcomes for everybody.
Unfortunately, the current regulatory environment wasn't designed for software:
It can be so daunting and time-consuming that some smaller innovative projects never get off the ground.
It can delay the first release of software by years.
It can slow subsequent iterations to the same pace at which drugs and hardware medical devices are improved.
We have built Scarlet from the ground up to certify Software Medical Devices.
Scarlet’s mission is to hasten the transition to universally accessible and affordable healthcare by safely increasing the quantity, quality and access to Software Medical Devices
To achieve this, Scarlet’s product enables its customers to achieve swift regulatory approval and perform frequent subsequent software updates.
Culture
We emphasise the following principles:
Small Team, Big Impact: A council of Jedis rather than an army of stormtroopers, if you will.
We strive to make an outsized impact relative to the size of our team.
Openness: Proactively sharing context, so we can all make good choices
Problem-centricity: Framing our conversations in terms of problems and striving to define and prioritise them well.
These three principles empower us to be unreasonably effective whilst enjoying:
Flexible working
Remote-first
No prescribed hours
No holiday tracking
Low/no scheduled meetings
No stand-ups, retrospectives or agile ceremonies
We get together in real life roughly quarterly for a week at our offices in London or Amsterdam
Asynchronous collaboration
We have rich async discussions
We flexibly have 1:1s with each other as and when it makes sense
Extremely High Trust and Autonomy
Nobody just implements prescribed solutions handed to them by someone else.
We all solve problems, own our choices and trust and respect each other.
The Engineering Team
We are a Clojure team.
