Offer description

At Trilogy Care, AI is part of how we build, not a side project.
We hire leaders and engineers who think AI-first and apply that mindset to health and care technology. If you want to use AI as part of your everyday engineering toolkit, your work will have an immediate and meaningful impact here.
We use technology to give people more time to care, connect and change lives. AI does not replace the human role; it strengthens it by reducing repetitive work and improving access to insight. This means more time for people to focus on better support and better outcomes for clients.
Our Digital team is at the centre of this mission. We design, build and run the platforms, applications and integrations that power care delivery, client experience and business operations. With AI, automation and cloud services, and close partnership with clinical, operations and finance teams, we create technology that genuinely improves how care is delivered.
