About Newpage Solutions
Newpage Solutions is a global digital health innovation company helping people live longer, healthier lives. We partner with life sciences organisations which include, pharmaceutical, biotech and healthcare leaders, to build transformative AI and data driven technologies addressing real-world health challenges.
From strategy and research to UX design and agile development, we deliver and validate impactful solutions using lean, human-centered practices.
We are proud to be a Great Place to Work certified company for the last three consecutive years. We also hold a top Glassdoor rating and are named among the "Top 50 Most Promising Healthcare Solution Providers" by CIOReview. As an organisation, we foster creativity, continuous learning and inclusivity, creating an environment where bold ideas thrive and make a measurable difference in people's lives.
Your Mission
We are seeking an experienced AI Tech Lead to join the Global Digital team of one of our clients. In this role you will set the technical direction for a fast-moving AI build team, write production-grade code, and turn bold ideas into real-world products. You will work on high-impact, ELT-1 business cases, with direct exposure to the strategic priorities of senior leadership.
We are looking for an exceptional engineer who pairs deep software development experience with a passion for pushing the boundaries of what is possible with AI. The team thrives on experimentation: quick hacks in 24 to 48 hours, a working prototype in a week, and a production deployment the week after. You will lead by example shipping code, raising the technical bar, and mentoring the engineers around you.
What You'll Do

Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
