Build AI that makes a real difference. Imagine building AI that helps doctors spend more time with patients. Creating automations that remove thousands of hours of repetitive administration. Developing intelligent solutions that improve patient care across an entire NHS hospital. That’s what you’ll be doing here.
Milton Keynes University Hospital is one of the UK’s leading digitally mature NHS organisations. We have a modern Oracle Health Electronic Patient Record, cloud-first infrastructure, integrated clinical systems and an ambitious vision to become one of the UK’s most AI-enabled hospitals. You can help turn that ambition into reality.
Working as part of our growing Digital Innovation team, you’ll design, build and support AI solutions, intelligent workflows and automations that solve genuine operational and clinical problems. You’ll work with technologies such as:
- Microsoft Power Platform
- AI Agents
- Robotic Process Automation
- APIs and system integration
- Oracle Health AI capabilities
- Workflow automation
If you want your code to have a visible impact on patients, clinicians and the future of healthcare, we’d love to hear from you.
Please note that we are not able to offer sponsorship for this role.
Every week will be different. One day you might be automating a clinical process. The next you’ll be building an AI assistant for staff, integrating systems through APIs, experimenting with new technologies or working directly alongside clinicians to solve problems that have frustrated them for years. You’ll have the freedom to innovate, test ideas and introduce new technologies, while working within the governance and standards expected of one of the UK’s leading NHS digital organisations.
We’re looking for someone who’s naturally curious, enjoys solving problems and loves building things. You might come from software engineering, automation, data engineering, AI development, Microsoft technologies or another technical discipline. What matters most is your passion for using technology to improve people’s lives.
This is an opportunity to work with experienced digital leaders who believe in innovation, invest in technology and actively encourage experimentation.
