Senior Backend Engineer (Golang)

Our mission is to become the financial and revenue operating system for primary care practices .

We help dental and veterinary clinics manage how money flows into the practice - from patient access, to payments, memberships, financing, insurance, and reporting - in one coherent system.

Rather than treating payments, plans, and finance as separate tools, we combine them into a single operating layer that reflects how practices actually run their business.

There are three structural shifts reshaping primary care right now:

1. Patient access is moving beyond opening hours . Clinics are under pressure to be available when patients want to engage, not just when the front desk is staffed. Voice and chat interfaces are becoming the new front door to care.

2. Revenue is becoming structured, not ad-hoc . Memberships, financing, and insurance are increasingly used to smooth cashflow, improve access, and increase predictability — particularly as NHS capacity declines and private care expands.

3. Practices need better financial insight , not more software. Owners and managers want to understand whether their pricing, plans, and utilisation make economic sense — without becoming analysts or relying on opaque tools.

Today, we support over 6,000 dental practices across the UK. 100 more join our platform every month. Tabeo is the dominant market leader for patient finance and seeks to reinvent memberships next. Beyond payments, we are launching a voice/chat AI solution that complements our existing products.

Tabeo is profitable. We seek to grow revenue by 50-60% per year and exceed £25 million ARR in 2028.

We believe in a remote first approach to work and equip teams with perks and tools so they can thrive. However, we all come together 2x per year for our amazing ‘Team Weeks’. We previously met in Dubai, Lisbon, London and Athens. Next is a surprise!

About the role:

We’re looking for an experienced backend engineer to join us! We currently have two cross-functional product teams. We’re ambitious, and have many interesting strategic and technical challenges ahead of us, including:

• Working towards our multi-product strategy as we scale our, Plans product

• Releasing our newest AI Revenue Engine product which is integrated across our product suite and provides multiple communication channels including voice, email, whatsapp and chat

• Expanding our target audience to include other primary healthcare providers (like vets and hearing specialists) and other regions/countries such as Germany.

We typically use the following tools and technologies:

• Go to write our application code

• Google Cloud and AWS for infrastructure

As part of the process, we also ask candidates to complete a short critical thinking assessment in their own time. We use this as a benchmark alongside the interviews. It should take no longer than 40 minutes to complete.

If we extend you an offer, we’ll also arrange for you to meet Paul, our CEO, where you can ask any outstanding questions you have about Tabeo.
