Software Engineer (w/m/d)

Festanstellung, Vollzeit · Berlin

ABOUT US

At Media4Care, we’re not chasing trends or hypergrowth — we’re building meaningful technology with purpose. Our mission is to improve the lives of seniors and people with dementia, making daily life easier and more joyful for them, their families, and caregivers.

We develop a comprehensive digital assistance system tailored to the needs of older adults, with a strong focus on usability, accessibility, and real-world impact. Join us in bringing warmth, dignity, and innovation to the senior care space.

- Hybrid Work Culture: We work hybrid from our Berlin office, with a minimum of three in-office days per week — especially important during onboarding and for team collaboration.

- Please note: We do not sponsor visas. Applicants must already be living in Germany and able to attend in-person interviews in Berlin.

YOUR CONTRIBUTION

As part of our small but experienced engineering team, you’ll help shape the future of senior care tech:

Think Like a Product Engineer: We believe the future of software development lies in engineers who think beyond code — understanding the users, the problem, and the full product experience.
Build and improve: Design and implement features that matter — from API to UI, schema to screen.
Collaborate and Elevate: Share knowledge in code reviews and product discussions; we value cross-functional input.
Own the Quality: Deliver reliable, maintainable software that works at scale.
Stay Modern: Use the latest tools (including AI assistants and LLMs), but grounded in sound engineering practices.

MOTIVATION

Product Ownership: We don’t throw specs over the wall. Engineers are involved from idea to deployment — understanding the why, not just the how.
Meaningful Impact: What you build improves lives — not click rates. You’ll solve real problems for real people.
Smart, Sustainable Growth: We value thoughtful decision-making over rushed MVPs. Clean, scalable architecture matters here.
Flat, Collaborative Team: Everyone contributes across domains. You’ll never hear “that’s not your job.”
Modern Tooling & Autonomy: From AI coding assistants to LLM integration — we support fast, high-quality development with autonomy.

REQUIREMENTS

Solid Foundation: Degree in Computer Science or equivalent knowledge, plus 5+ years of experience in software engineering.
TypeScript across the stack: Strong experience with PostgreSQL, GraphQL APIs, and TypeScript.
React Native experience: You’ve built mobile apps using React Native, or you’re comfortable jumping in and learning fast — it’s a core part of our product.
Full-stack mindset: You’re comfortable moving between backend and frontend, depending on the problem.
Team Collaboration: You enjoy working with others, adapting to shifting roles as needed in a small team.
Problem Solver: You care about clean code, elegant architecture, and solving real-world user problems.
Bonus Skills(nice to have):
- Experience with GraphQL/ORM tools like PostGraphile
- Familiarity with Docker, CI/CD, and local deployment workflows
- Performance tuning (e.g. optimizing queries, API responsiveness, mobile rendering)
- Experience running or integrating local/offline LLMs (e.g. Ollama, Mistral, Llama.cpp)

HIRING PROCESS

We keep things structured but human — our goal is to understand how you think, communicate, and solve real problems.

Short form — we send a few questions to learn how you work and what you’re looking for
Intro call — a 30-minute chat with the team lead to get to know each other
Code challenge — a small, offline task (~4–6 hours) that reflects real-world work
Technical session (single day) —
– Review and discussion of your solution
– Deeper conversation around architecture and problem-solving
– Quick meet & greet with the team
Offer — if it’s a match on both sides, we move fast
