Senior Backend Engineer (Go) (m/w/d)

About us As one of Germany's leading HealthTech companies, we are transforming discharge management by making it technology driven, patient centered, and free of bureaucracy. In addition to our market leading SaaS platform, we are developing AI solutions that radically simplify processes in clinics and for aftercare providers, relieve the burden on healthcare professionals, and put the focus back on patients. We currently connect over two thirds of all German hospitals with more than 650 rehabilitation clinics, and over 25,000 care and homecare providers. With around 120 employees from a broad range of nations, we are continuing to grow and are looking for people with the right attitude who want to improve the healthcare system alongside us. We're now going far beyond our core business, aiming to eliminate bureaucracy and admin in hospitals with a whole portfolio of AI products. What you'll work on Aftercare provider operations are becoming increasingly complex and data driven. Bringing change is very hard, but we're not afraid. You'll build features that help care facilities, rehabilitation centers, and healthcare chains better allocate resources, unlock actionable insights from patient data, and integrate Recare seamlessly into their internal systems. Our ambitious roadmap focuses on expanding our marketplace's receiver side with enhanced analytics tools, B2C platforms connecting providers directly with patients, expanded API integrations, and much more. Secure communication is at our core. Our solution provides end to end encryption for healthcare professionals to safely exchange messages and patient data through both our applications and external API integrations. In this role, you will: • Own a domain inside our core Go codebase, contributing to architecture decisions and code quality within your area • Work inside a well structured system with some standalone services around the edges, including an on premise gateway for hospital integrations, rather than a sprawling microservices estate • Step in and keep things moving when your lead is away, taking ownership with confidence rather than waiting for instruction • Contribute to pull requests, reviews, and technical discussions as a trusted senior voice on your team We have several products in development that we are confident will significantly impact the German healthcare system. And yes, we're excited by the new opportunities AI unlocks for building powerful features for our customers and our own workflow. What technologies you'll work with • Golang. Our entire backend codebase is in Golang, and we love it. It's easy to learn, it's strongly typed, the internal tooling is fantastic, and it compiles fast. • Postgres. We use Postgres for our databases and GORM to interface with it. • CI and DevOps. We use both CircleCI and GitHub Actions to run our unit and integration tests, visual regression tests built in house, and automated code analysis through SonarCloud. They're also used to deploy to our various environments. We also dedicate some of our time to work on non business tasks, which means for instance: • Continuously optimising the backend code to offer the best user experience • Analysing and improving database slowdowns and issues • Internal automation, because we want to make our lives easier • Building additional tooling, such as performance profiling tools to identify bottlenecks in backend services and optimise resource usage Our philosophy is that developers are owners of the code they write until it gets to production. We rely a lot on automated tests to ensure everything stays stable. The rule is that code could be deployed at any time, and manual QA is only involved in new feature validation. This is what you can expect from us • Work with
