About Thriva

Thriva is the UK's leading diagnostics business and we’re on a mission to help millions of people worldwide become actively invested in their long term health, through using health insights to help them thrive.

Our consumer business is for everyone who wants to improve and understand what is happening inside their bodies. From taking a home test to getting actional results and GP advice all through our website and app.

Our B2B business, Thriva Solutions offers health services and provides a full end to end diagnostic service (DAAS). We offer speed, reduced risk and scaling of diagnostic capabilities for partners who work with us. We’re building a new category in the market and would love for you to come on this journey with us.

Meet our product team!

We have a small but mighty product team that works across both our direct to consumer and B2B products. Working in the healthcare space provides interesting product challenges but also great rewards when the products you build have a positive impact on the lives of our customers. We work very collaboratively with engineers, designers and product managers all getting very hands on with the experiences we’re building.

Why work with us

You’ll be working alongside humble people who truly care about what we’re building and how it can help people.

We’re creating something entirely new and we don’t know everything. So we’re constantly trying new things to understand how we can improve people's lives. We set company goals which drives everything we do and helps us keep focus on building the most impactful features we can.

We’re trying to build a product that is safe, personalised and scalable to meet the needs of all our customers. That could be a large multinational company to an individual person. This means we have a lot of exciting opportunities for products and features we can build that can have a direct impact on people’s lives.

Our powerful B2B platform also powers our direct to consumer product. So we aim for all engineers to feel comfortable across all our products. Because of this, we design for simplicity and consistency. This also means you’ll have the chance to work with lots of different people from across the company on a range of challenging problems.

Startup life can be tough sometimes, so we like to bring as much fun as we can to the office!
