> Lead the end-to-end delivery of a complex, multi-disciplinary hardware and software sub-system for a non-invasive neuromonitoring device. Manage planning, execution, and cross-functional coordination through the full product development lifecycle in a fast-paced medtech startup.

## Job description

At CoMind, we are developing a non-invasive neuromonitoring technology that will result in a new era of clinical brain monitoring. In joining us, you will be helping to create cutting-edge technologies that will improve how we diagnose and treat brain disorders, ultimately improving and saving the lives of patients across the world.

## THE ROLE:

The Senior Technical Project Manager at CoMind will lead the delivery of a complex, multi-disciplinary sub-system spanning optics, electronics, mechanical engineering, FPGAs, and software. The role owns end-to-end planning and execution, coordinating internal engineering teams and external development partners to take the sub-system through the full product development lifecycle, from design maturation through to verification and transfer.

This is a senior, hands-on role focused on disciplined technical project delivery in a fast-moving medtech start-up.

The successful candidate will translate technical and programme objectives into a clear, well-structured plan, managing scope, schedule, resources, risk, and cross-discipline dependencies, while maintaining the pace and pragmatism a start-up demands.

CoMind is entering a critical phase of design maturation, verification, and scale-up. This role is central to ensuring the sub-system is delivered on time, to specification, and to the quality and regulatory standards expected of a medical device, without sacrificing momentum or engineering rigour.

At CoMind, all team members work at least 4 days per week in the office, plus a flexible work-from-home day. This role is based in our London (Kings Cross) office.

## RESPONSIBILITIES:

- Owning end-to-end planning and delivery of the sub-system project across optics, electronics, mechanical, FPGA, and software workstreams, from concept through to design verification and transfer
- Building and maintaining the integrated project plan, including scope, schedule, milestones, critical path, and cross-discipline dependencies
- Leading a multi-disciplinary team of engineers and external development partners, coordinating activities and resolving technical and resourcing conflicts to keep delivery on track
- Establishing and running effective project governance, including regular reporting, steering reviews, and clear, accurate status communication to senior stakeholders
- Owning the RAID log (risks, assumptions, issues, and dependencies), proactively identifying and mitigating risks before they affect schedule, cost, or quality
- Managing resourcing and capacity across disciplines, forecasting demand and working with functional leads to ensure the right skills are available at the right time
- Driving the project through the formal product development lifecycle, ensuring design control, verification and validation, and stage-gate requirements are met
- Managing external partners and suppliers, including statements of work, deliverables, and the technical and commercial commitments that underpin the project
- Tracking budget, effort, and cost against plan, and providing accurate forecasts to support decision-making
- Ensuring project documentation and deliverables meet the quality and traceability standards required for a regulated medical device (e.g. ISO 13485, IEC 62304, ISO 14971)
- AI is fundamental to our culture — it's not just a tool, but a core part of how we work, collaborate, and innovate. We expect all team members to embrace AI in their daily work and continuously find new ways to use it effectively.

## SKILLS & EXPERIENCE:

- Proven track record managing complex, multi-disciplinary engineering projects through the full product development lifecycle
- Demonstrated experience leading and coordinating multi-disciplinary teams spanning optics, electronics, mechanical, FPGA, and software, alongside external development partners
- Strong command of formal project management processes, including planning, scheduling, critical-path management, reporting, RAID, resourcing, and budget control
- Experience delivering products that integrate hardware, embedded/FPGA, and software, with a sound understanding of the interfaces and integration challenges involved
- Comfortable operating in a fast-paced start-up or scale-up environment, balancing process rigour with pragmatism and pace
- Strong technical fluency, with the ability to engage credibly with engineers across disciplines and challenge constructively when required
- Excellent communication and stakeholder-management skills, with a track record of clear, accurate reporting to senior leadership
- Strong organisational and prioritisation skills, with a track record of driving delivery without creating unnecessary bureaucracy
- Experience working within or alongside regulated environments (e.g. medical devices, ISO 13485, IEC 60601, IEC 62304, ISO 14971, design controls) is highly desirable, as is a recognised project management qualification (e.g. APM, PMP, PRINCE2)

## BENEFITS:

- Company equity plan so all employees share in the success of the company
- Salary-sacrifice pension scheme
- Private medical, dental and vision insurance (medical history disregarded)
- Group life assurance at 4x annual income
- Comprehensive mental health support, including unlimited access to 1:1 sessions with trained professionals
- Unlimited holiday allowance (+ bank holidays) and one week of remote working per quarter
- Lunch voucher (£10) every day for JustEat and free dinner on those days where you need to work later
- Twice weekly deliveries of fresh fruit and an extensive selection of snacks and drinks
- YuLife subscription, allowing you to turn your daily steps and meditation into discounts at a range of stores
