Key Responsibilities
Own the engineering of the whole platform — the Python and FastAPI backend, the React web application, the mobile application, the Artificial Intelligence (AI) plug-ins and the cloud they run on — and be the single person accountable for whether it ships
Lead through senior engineers who each own a group of modules, with the quality, cloud and mobile engineers shared across both, so no module has one person who cannot go on leave
Split the work by what a hospital does rather than by technology: one team on the clinical side — records, orders, laboratory, radiology, pharmacy — and one on everything a hospital runs on — reception, billing, insurance, canteen, administration
Set the technical direction and record it as decisions a recent engineer can still read a year later, including the ones that were wrong and why they were changed
Stay hands-on: review every change that touches a clinical record, a price, a ledger or a claim, and write the parts nobody else should be left alone with — tenancy, the billing engine, the synchronisation layer
Be accountable for the pilot hospital going live, and for the fact that a ward at two in the morning is not a place where software gets a second chance
Delivery You Can Commit To
Sequence the work so two teams run in parallel without waiting on each other, and say in the week it becomes likely — not in the week it becomes certain — that a date will move
Hold estimates that hold: break work down until the team can commit to it, and treat an estimate that keeps slipping as a specification problem rather than an effort problem
Own the release path end to end — trunk-based development, migrations only through version control, a deploy anybody on the team can run, and a rollback that has actually been tested
Own what happens when it breaks at three in the morning: who is called, what they can see, and how the hospital is told before it telephones us
Keep the weekly picture honest — what shipped, what slipped, what
