About the Company

We are a VC-backed startup based in Hamburg, building a new kind of infrastructure for the €200B+ medical devices industry.

Hospitals and manufacturers today are stuck with outdated processes, bloated sales structures, and unstructured data. We're fixing this — with modern tech. Our platform will streamline procurement, inventory forecasting, and product matching for hospitals and suppliers.

We’re funded with €2.2M, already partnered with key industry players, and have a working prototype. Now we’re hiring our first engineer to build and scale the MVP — and grow into the CTO role.

Your Role

As our Founding Engineer, you’ll be hands-on in shaping the product from the ground up, working closely with the founding team and pilot customers.

Tasks

What you’ll do :

• Build the MVP based on an existing prototype (Python + Streamlit)
• Lead backend (Node.js or FastAPI) and frontend (React + Next.js) development
• Scale the DB architecture (PostgreSQL → AWS migration)
• Implement product substitution logic in the ordering system
• Set up lightweight transactional systems (email-based or queue-driven)
• Build CSV import / export tools and ERP integrations (e.g., SAP, HIS)
• Ensure compliance with GDPR and MDR for EU rollout
• Work closely with pilot hospitals and iterate fast
