The Role

We are seeking a proactive, highly organised, and technically minded Project Manager to act as a central enabler across engineering, regulatory, and clinical development activities in a fast-paced MedTech start-up environment.

In this role, you will ensure our product development remains aligned, efficient, and execution-focused as we bring pioneering cloud-enabled, data-driven spectral imaging technologies to market as regulated medical devices, shaping the future of surgical vision. You will sit at the intersection of strategy and delivery — translating intent into action, maintaining momentum across workstreams, and provide leadership with clear visibility of progress, risks, and dependencies.

You will work closely across engineering, clinical, and regulatory functions, coordinating internal teams and external partners to deliver against the product roadmap and regulatory commitments with rigour and speed. As Project Manager, you will oversee and drive the planning, delivery, and documentation of product development activities, acting as a central force for aligned, high-quality execution across the organisation.

Key Responsibilities

Project Planning & Execution

• Translate high-level strategic objectives and evolving requirements into clear, executable project plans
• Own and maintain integrated project plans spanning software, hardware, regulatory, and clinical workstreams
• Drive milestone definition, prioritisation, dependency management, and resource planning across R&D and product development
• Track delivery against plans, proactively identifying risks, bottlenecks, and trade-offs

Cross-Functional Coordination & Communication

• Act as a central coordination point across engineering, clinical, regulatory, and external partners
• Facilitate structured requirements definition, decision-making, and alignment across teams
• Provide leadership with timely, accurate insight into progress, risks, and execution challenges
• Coordinate technical design reviews, sprint planning, retrospectives, and cross-team communications

Regulated Development & Quality

• Support the transition of prototypes into a regulated medical device environment
• Ensure project documentation and development activities align with ISO 13485 and IEC 62304 expectations
• Contribute to the implementation, maintenance, and continuous improvement of the Quality Management System (QMS)
• Promote disciplined documentation and traceability appropriate for regulated product development

Ways of Working & Continuous Improvement

• Apply structured project management methodologies (e.g. PRINCE2, hybrid agile/lean approaches) appropriate for an early-stage MedTech company
• Develop and maintain tools such as Gantt charts, dashboards, RAID logs, and delivery workflows
• Model and promote best practices in operational efficiency, accountability, and execution discipline
• Support onboarding and operational enablement of new team members as the organisation grows
• Be prepared to step into a wide range of responsibilities typical of a small, high-impact start-up — from hands-on documentation support to ad-hoc operational coordination

At Hypervision Surgical, we welcome candidates who have the core skills for the role and are keen to learn and grow with us. We are committed to creating an inclusive environment where a diverse mix of talented people come together and enjoy working with one another. By working together, we will change the way surgery is performed and improve patient care.

About You

You are a delivery-focused project manager who is comfortable operating in ambiguity, enjoys working closely with technical teams, and takes pride in enabling others to do their best work.

You bring:

• Broad experience in technical project management within MedTech or other regulated industries
• A proven ability to plan, coordinate, and deliver complex projects across multidisciplinary teams

Desirable:

• Experience in medical imaging, real-time systems, optical technologies, or complex device integration
• Experience working within an ISO 13485 Quality Management System and familiarity with IEC 62304 software lifecycle processes

Bonus points if you bring a special talent, interest, language, or unique life experience to the team.

About Us

Hypervision Surgical (“Hypervision”) is a spin-out from King’s College London, founded by clinicians and experts in medical imaging and artificial intelligence. Using safe light alone, our mission is to equip surgeons with real-time, AI-driven tissue intelligence to improve precision and patient safety.

We are pioneering the world’s first regulatory-cleared real-time intraoperative spectral imaging platform, combining on-chip spectral sensing with high-speed AI analytics at over 60 frames per second. Seamlessly integrating into existing surgical vision systems, our technology transforms standard cameras into intelligent, data-rich tools — revealing anatomical, physiological, and pathological information beyond human vision.

Certified for both open and minimally invasive surgery, our platform achieved UKCA certification and FDA clearance in 2025 under a newly established AI/ML product code, and was admitted into the FDA’s Safer Technology Program. With multi-centre clinical evaluations underway and strategic partnerships with world-leading technology and surgical manufacturers, including imec and ZEISS Ventures, Hypervision is shaping the future of data-driven surgery.
