About YUTHERA
YUTHERA is building the YU Patch, a wearable medical device for women living with pelvic pain conditions such as endometriosis and dysmenorrhea. It delivers drug-free pain relief and is designed to read signals from the body so that women and their clinicians can see what the pain is doing over time. Most women with these conditions wait years to be believed. We want to give them evidence.
We are a UK company with a team working remotely across the UK, the UAE, Europe, and India. The pain relief side of the device is at prototype stage, built with a university research institute in the UAE. We are also part of a European accelerator whose partners include global companies active in women's health, and of a UK investment readiness programme.
The Role
You will lead the sensing and algorithm side of the device. You own how physiological signals are acquired and processed on a small wearable, how the algorithms are designed, and how their performance is proven. You will work closely with our Chief Science and Safety Officer, a clinician scientist who sets the clinical requirements and the validation standard.
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
What You Will Do
- Define the signal acquisition and processing approach for the sensing side of the device
- Design, build, and test the algorithms that turn raw signals into reliable measures
- Plan and lead technical validation, from bench testing to first recordings on people
- Give technical direction to our sensing engineer and our university engineering partners
- Design data collection protocols with the Chief Science and Safety Officer
- Document the work to the standard a medical device technical file requires
What We Are Looking For
- Seven or more years working with physiological signals from wearable or medical devices
- At least one algorithm taken from research through to a product or a clinical validation
- Strong signal processing skills, including handling motion and skin contact artefacts
- Experience with time series modelling and machine learning on physiological data
- Working knowledge of medical device software and design control requirements
- Experience leading a small technical team across locations
- Clear technical writing in English

Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
- A PhD or equivalent research background in biomedical engineering, signal processing, or a related field
- Experience with devices that both stimulate and sense
- Experience in women's health or pain
Compensation and Commitment
YUTHERA is pre-seed. This role is part-time and compensated with equity until our funding round closes, on a four-year vesting schedule with a 12-month cliff. It becomes a paid position after the round, which we are targeting for early 2027. Everyone on the team, including the founder, is on the same basis.
This suits someone whose current work allows outside commitments, such as an academic, an independent consultant, or a senior engineer between roles. If you are in full-time employment, please check that your contract permits outside work before applying.
