Senior Data Engineer (m/f/d)

As one of the leading German HealthTech companies, we are reshaping discharge management – technology-driven, patient-centered, and free from bureaucracy. In addition to our market-leading SaaS platform, we develop AI solutions that radically simplify processes in hospitals and for aftercare providers, relieve healthcare professionals, and refocus attention on patients. Today, we already connect two-thirds of all German hospitals with over 650 rehabilitation clinics and 25,000 nursing and homecare providers. With currently around 100 employees, we continue to grow – and we are looking for people with character who want to help us improve the healthcare system and solve administrative complexity across care journeys in Europe.

Our data flows from our applications, product events and business systems, in a highly regulated healthcare context. This role exists to build the platform that makes sure that data arrives complete, on time and safe to use, so Product, leadership, RevOps and Finance work from the same numbers.

You will be the first data engineer in a new data team that sits in Product, works across the company and reports to the Head of Data. You will own the platform that moves our data into Snowflake and shape the architecture decisions around it: which tools we build on, how pipelines are orchestrated and monitored, and how data infrastructure is managed as code.

What to expectThis is what you can expect from us as a Senior Data Engineer:

• Purposeful work – your work gives the teams serving hospitals and aftercare providers data they can trust.

• Real ownership – as the first data engineer in a new team, you shape the data platform and its tooling.

• Company culture – we believe in flat hierarchies that promote high performance and strong team dynamics. We foster an environment characterized by mutual respect, loyalty, and recognition. Together, we strive for our goals – and expect the same from you.

• Flexibility – want to pick up your child from daycare? Like to exercise during lunch? We'll support you. We are a remote-friendly company offering flexible working hours. Workations are also possible by arrangement.

• Edenred card – which you can use according to your needs.

Extra vacation day – so you can celebrate your birthday with your loved ones, you'll have the day off.

This is how you will make an impact as a Senior Data Engineer:- Data from our application databases, product events and SaaS tools needs to reach Snowflake reliably. You build and run that ingestion and decide where to buy a managed connector and where to build.

• Our pipelines need clear dependencies, retries, alerting and SLAs. You set up orchestration so a failed or partial load stops downstream work instead of silently producing wrong numbers.

• New products need event pipelines. You design them together with engineers, keeping patient data out of analytics events by design.

• Product and Finance need to work from the same definitions. You maintain the dbt models that connect product usage with customer, billing and revenue data.

• Our CRM (HubSpot) and our internal systems need to talk to each other. You build the data flows between them, including two-way synchronisation where it is needed.

• Data quality problems need to be caught before a dashboard or a board report does. You establish validation, monitoring and alerting.

• Our data needs strong privacy and access controls. You enforce role-based access and masking in Snowflake, pseudonymisation, and deletion that propagates across raw and modelled data.

• Data code needs the same engineering standards as our product code. You bring code review, testing, documentation and CI/CD to it.

How we buildWe run a modern cloud-native stack to move, model and protect data reliably in a regulated healthcare environment.

• Cloud: AWS (The European Sovereign Cloud partition)

• Runtime: Kubernetes (EKS) and Postgres (RDS)

• Warehouse and modelling: Snowflake (EU), dbt
