## Job description

Mission Neko is redefining what prevention means, from treating illness when it arrives, to sustaining health before it's ever at risk. Our mission: make data-driven, preventative care accessible to more people, before symptoms appear.

In a single, non-invasive visit under an hour, proprietary technology and direct clinical care combine to deliver personalised, actionable insights. It's a team that thinks in 10x, not 10%. Every role here plays a part in building a world where prevention is the norm, and where your work genuinely helps people live longer, healthier lives.

Neko Health is changing how clinicians and operators learn, and we are hiring a designer to lead it. You will turn deep clinical expertise into learning that works, from curriculum design to virtual practice environments built with Engineering. Reports to: Head of Medical Education and Training | Team: Medex, Medical Education | Role type: Individual contributor

## About the role

Today, learning content is built in the gaps between other jobs, and the same material often exists in several versions. This role changes that. You will be the single production engine for Neko's clinical and operator learning: deciding how things are best learned, building them, and making each new asset faster to make than the last. The curriculum, the asset library and the production process are still to be created, so this is a builder role.

## What you will do

- Design curriculum and programs for every Neko clinical population, writing learning objectives in observable performance terms.
- Build learning assets across e-learning, video, job aids and facilitator guides, modular so a protocol change updates a component rather than triggering a rebuild.
- Own the asset library, including its taxonomy and when assets are retired.
- Write the learning requirement for virtual practice environments and validate that what Engineering builds teaches what it should.
- Design assessments, including rubrics, checklists and observation tools, that two assessors can apply consistently.
- Draw expertise out of clinicians and operators, and shadow clinical teams so your designs reflect real practice.
- Evaluate whether learning changed practice, using assessment and quality data rather than completion figures, and improve or retire what is not working.
- Administer our learning systems and maintain an auditable training record for every clinician and operator, including the protocol version they are trained to.

## Requirements

- 6+ years in instructional or learning design, with ownership of design decisions rather than production alone, and a portfolio of products you built.
- 4+ years applying adult learning and competency-based design, and explaining why a design choice serves the objective.
- 4+ years authoring e-learning, video and written materials with current industry tools.
- 3+ years designing assessment, including rubrics and observation instruments, not only knowledge checks.
- 3+ years working with subject matter experts to turn their knowledge into accurate, learnable content.
- 2+ years writing requirements for a technical team and seeing them through to a working product.
- 2+ years working with learning platforms and how content is packaged, delivered and tracked.
- Practical, curious and quick to prototype: you would rather put a rough version in front of ten learners next week than a polished one in three months, and you build things others can maintain.

## Nice to have

- Experience in healthcare, medical device or another regulated environment where content is reviewed before release.
- Experience designing simulation or scenario-based learning, including the debrief around it.
- Experience designing for localization and accessibility in digital learning.
- A qualification in instructional design, learning technology or education.

## About Neko Health

## Company Overview
- **One-liner**: Neko Health is a healthcare technology company that has engineered a proprietary, data-driven preventive health scan to detect early signs of disease in otherwise healthy individuals.
- **Entity Type**: Private (Funding Stage: Series A)
- **Headquarters**: Stockholm, Sweden
- **Founded**: 2018
- **Founders**: Daniel Ek (Co-founder, also founder/CEO of Spotify) and Hjalmar Nilsonne (Co-founder)

## Core Business
- Primary industry/industries: Healthcare Technology, Preventive Medicine, Clinical Diagnostics
- Target customers: B2C – Health-conscious individuals; B2B Potential – Self-insured employers
- Mission or purpose statement: “To provide healthcare that’s proactive instead of reactive – so that people can live longer, healthier lives.”

## Products & Services
- **[The Neko Health Scan]**: A 60-minute, full-body health check that captures millions of data points across the skin, heart, blood, and circulation using four proprietary devices (Derma, Spectrum, Echo, and Neko Lens). Includes an unrushed consultation with a doctor where results are discussed immediately. The scan is priced at approximately 2750kr (~$260) in Sweden and is designed for asymptomatic, healthy individuals looking for prevention.

## Market Standing
- **Valuation/Market Cap**: Not publicly disclosed (as of mid-2026).
- **Key Metric**: Total Funding – **$325.1M** (one prior funding round).
- **Notable Investors/Partners**: Backed by “investors who have built and scaled some of the most ambitious technology companies of the last two decades” (individual names not publicly listed on career page). The company has strong ties to the tech and startup ecosystem.
- **Growth Signals**: Over 1,000 employees (more than half in clinical roles). Aggressive expansion with active clinic locations in London, Manchester, Birmingham, Stockholm, and plans for more. Job postings have increased +344.4% year-over-year (as of mid-2026), indicating rapid scaling.

## Competitive Advantages
- **Proprietary Hardware**: All four scanning devices are designed, engineered, and assembled in-house in Stockholm, creating a hard-to-replicate technological moat.
- **Integrated Clinical Model**: Unlike traditional clinics or digital health apps, Neko combines its proprietary hardware with on-site doctors, clinical researchers, and data science under one roof with a low patient volume per doctor ( ~9 members/day vs. 30+ in standard care). This enables a focus on prevention, not just treatment.
- **Data Moat**: The system captures millions of structured data points per scan, allowing for peer benchmarking and longitudinal tracking over years, creating a powerful, network-effect dataset for preventive health insights.
- **Leadership**: Co-founded by Daniel Ek (Spotify) and Hjalmar Nilsonne.

## Strategic Focus
- **Scaling the Scan Room**: Neko is actively testing a second-generation modular scan room platform designed to capture more signals and scale to new locations.
- **Global Expansion**: Opening new clinics across the UK and Europe, with a clear intent to make the service more accessible.
- **Clinical Research & Governance**: Continued focus on validating their devices with clinical studies and building a clinical leadership team (including ex-NHS and Amazon Health executives) to establish preventive care as a formal clinical discipline.

## Why Work Here
- **Mission-Driven**: The company was founded to solve the fundamental problem of late-stage diagnosis by focusing on prevention. The work is presented as having a direct, positive impact on human longevity.
- **Culture & Engineering**: The company actively showcases a deep engineering culture where “clinical insight can become a hardware iteration overnight.” Clinicians and engineers share the same floor, fostering rapid iteration and innovation.
- **Compensation & Benefits**: Salaries are benchmarked via market research. Benefits include comprehensive Medical, Dental, and Vision Insurance, 401K, Paid Time Off, Life Insurance, Disability Insurance, CME Days, and Commuter Benefits.
- **Work Model**: Roles are **on-site** at specific clinic locations. Training for medical roles is fully paid. The interview process is designed to give candidates a feel for the culture and mission.
- **Growth Trajectory**: With 80+ active job postings and triple-digit growth in hiring, the company is in a high-growth phase, offering significant career development opportunities.
