- **Location:** Stockholm, Sweden
- **Employment:** full-time
- **Work type:** onsite

## 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.

## About the role

We're looking for an NPI Engineer to take Neko's electronics from a stable design into volume production. You'll sit between the design team in Stockholm and our contract manufacturer, and you'll own the work that makes a board buildable and testable at volume. That means the test fixtures the factory runs, the DFM and DFT changes that go back into the design while there's still time to act on them, and the yield and process work once a line is up. When a build throws a problem, you're the person who works out whether it's the design, the process or the test, and then closes it. We're at the point where the manufacturing decisions being made now will shape how the next few products get built, so there's a lot of ground to claim.

## What you'll do

- Take stable designs through transfer into production, and own the industrialization plan for each one
- Design ICT and functional test fixtures for volume production, and the requirements behind them
- Drive DFM and DFT improvements back into the electronics design
- Work directly with our contract manufacturer on build readiness, process and quality
- Work with the software team on the production test software and firmware that runs on your fixtures
- Own yield: track it, find the causes behind it, and close them out
- Keep production documentation, work instructions and test records in the shape a regulated product needs

## What you bring

- Experience taking electronic products from design into volume manufacturing
- Production test fixture design, ICT and functional, including writing the test requirements
- DFM and DFT, with examples of changes you got into a design early enough to matter
- Hands-on work with contract manufacturers, or with an internal production line
- Comfortable reading schematics and layouts, and debugging a board on the line
- Process and yield improvement, with data behind the decisions
- Degree in Electrical, Electronics, Production or Mechanical Engineering, or equivalent practical experience
- Fluent English (C1 or above)

Bonus points

- Experience in medical devices or another regulated industry, including design transfer and process validation (IQ/OQ/PQ), as well as knowledge of ISO 13485
- Proficient in testing software and scripting using Python or LabVIEW
- Knowledge of SMT processes, including panelisation, AOI, and X-ray inspection
- Experience working with contract manufacturers outside Sweden and managing the associated travel
- Familiarity with statistical process control, Six Sigma, or equivalent methodologies

## Why join this team

This is the role that decides whether a good design becomes a good product. You'll own the transfer end to end, from the first DFM review through to a line running at yield, and you'll have the authority to send a change back into the design when that's the right fix. The design team is in Stockholm and small enough that you'll know every engineer whose board you're industrializing. The hierarchy is flat, so a process decision doesn't need three approvals to happen. Volumes are growing and the hardware is early, so you're setting up how manufacturing works here while there's still a choice about it.

## 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.
