Full Stack Developer - Berlin (m/f/x)

We are Una, a mission-driven company tackling the ever-increasing burden of metabolic disease.

We are combining the latest medical research, data science, biosensor technology, and human-centered design to enable sustainable behaviour change and improve health outcomes.

We have created the first medical-grade digital therapy that sustainably solves metabolic dysfunction.

We are backed by excellent investors such as Atlantic Food Labs, PeakBridge, Plug and Play, and DART Labs, and angels such as the founders of mySugr/9amHealth and Ada Health.

We are a fast-growing team. You will be joining us at a hugely exciting time as we have just launched our fully-reimbursed solution to 9 million people living with type 2 diabetes in Germany. There will be opportunities to shape the direction of the company from the start.

Note: The role requires you to be based in Berlin but is remote-first.

Tasks

Working closely with our tech and product leads, you will help us build quickly and test new features as we learn from our users. Working remotely, you are ready to hit the ground running as we drive towards product-market fit by layering in functionality that improves the health of people living with diabetes. You are comfortable getting your hands on code, expanding your skill set, and explaining technical terms well. You enjoy brainstorming and are up for getting involved across the product development cycle. Most importantly, you are motivated by the potential to improve the health of some of the millions of people that live with metabolic illnesses such as diabetes.

Research shows that there is a Confidence Gap between different groups (e.g., gender, age, ethnicity) leading some to apply when they meet 60% of the criteria, and others only when they check every box. So if you think you have what it takes, but don't necessarily meet every single point on the job description, please still get in touch. We'd love to have a chat and see if you could be a great fit.
