🚀 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Hospitals and manufacturers today are stuck with outdated processes, bloated sales structures, and unstructured data.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
Requirements
🧠 What We’re Looking For
- 5-10 years of experience as a full-stack engineer
- Experience building and shipping SaaS products or marketplaces
- Pragmatic and self-driven — you know how to go from messy prototype to solid product
- Strong hands-on experience with:
- Node.js or FastAPI
- React + Next.js
- PostgreSQL, AWS, API integrations
- CSV handling, transactional email systems
- Passion for structured data, product modeling, and taxonomy
- Bonus: Comfortable using AI tools like Cursor or Copilot
Benefits
🎁 What You’ll Get
- A competitive salary: up to €100,000
- Founder-level equity: 0.75% VSOP at €2M valuation
- Real ownership of early product architecture
- A fast path to becoming CTO in early 2026
- Collaboration with experienced, no-politics founders
- Flexible work setup: Hamburg-based but remote-friendly within CET
