Junior Software Developer - Python & Data Engineering im Gesundheitswesen (m/w/d)

Why this position will excite you:

You want to develop software that has real impact and doesn't just "work through" features? With us, you will work on solutions for diagnostic evaluation based on around 35,000 laboratory samples daily, operating in a data-driven environment with high relevance for patient care.

In our team of experienced subject matter experts, you will learn how to not only write software but also to conceptualize it thoughtfully: with a focus on quality, safety, testability, and clean documentation. You will be given responsibility early on, contribute your own ideas, and develop tools that are actually used.
