About Us

Log my Care is one of the fastest-growing Care Software start-ups in the UK, having quadrupled its customer base since 2020.

Our mission is to digitise the social care sector (care homes and home care agencies) and help hundreds of thousands of carers to provide a better quality of care to the UK’s most vulnerable people. The sector is over 60% analogue and paper-based, losing out on the many benefits technology can bring. We’re passionate about changing this with our awesome mobile App and Web-based tools that make delivering care far, far easier for hard-working carers.

The role

We are looking for a passionate and organised Tech Lead to join our ambitious team here at Log my Care. Reporting to Adam our CTO, you’ll help foster a culture of engineering excellence, which will help drive the business forward.

Help foster a culture of engineering excellence, with a strong focus on reliability and stability.
Work closely with the product owner and product designer to refine new ideas and translate them into technically feasible products.

A new mobile app that allows Service Users to access their own records
