Hospitals should be able to focus on patients, not administrative overhead. Damedic takes over the full hospital case billing process: our in-house medical coding experts work hand in hand with our AI-based coding platform. Together, we are shaping the coding processes of tomorrow — efficient, reliable, and with human expertise at the center.AI-native processes are fundamentally changing what infrastructure means. What used to be mainly Infrastructure as Code, Kubernetes, and CI/CD is now also about a bigger question: How do we create a development environment where AI agents, automation, internal knowledge, and engineering processes work together securely, meaningfully, and at scale?

There is no blueprint for this transformation — and this is exactly where you come in. You take ownership and actively shape the path forward: through smart processes, sustainable standards, modern tools, and close collaboration with the teams.

What you can expect

Team play & modern Developer Experience

Leadership on equal footing: You take on both disciplinary and functional leadership of our two-person DevEx team. You see yourself as a team player and enabler who drives engineering productivity together with the team.
DevEx in the AI era: For you, DevEx is much more than local setup and deployments. You shape the conditions for modern engineering work: from context engineering for AI agents and standards for skills to development processes for knowledge management and the tools around it.
Processes as enablers: You turn best practices into shared standards. You create ease of mind for developers and make the organization as a whole more effective.
Measurable success: You measure the impact of your work through company development and direct feedback, as well as key KPIs such as our internal DevEx Index and DORA metrics.

Platform operations, evolution & automation

Operations & cloud: You are responsible for the stable operation of our AWS/EKS landscape as well as our on-premise system.
Incident & alert management: You optimize the first-responder process, including improvements to our DevOps assistant.
Platform evolution: You continuously develop our infrastructure to strengthen IT security, establish best practices, and improve cost efficiency.
Compliance & resilience: You ensure that all processes are aligned with our compliance certifications, including ISO 27001 and BSI C5.

Infrastructure as a growth lever: At Damedic, infrastructure is not just operations. It is a central productivity lever for engineering and product development.
Room to shape: You actively define what Developer Experience, infrastructure, and AI-native ways of working will mean at Damedic going forward.
Direct impact: Your work directly influences how fast, secure, and productive our engineering teams can be.
Healthcare with purpose: Our technology helps hospitals reduce administrative workload and focus more on patient care.
Remote with a personal touch: We work remote-first within Germany, cover the costs of home office equipment or a co-working space, meet in person regularly — and we add a Deutschlandticket on top.

In the morning, you analyze an overnight scaling bottleneck in the cluster: stabilize quickly, understand the root cause, and improve monitoring and architecture.

Later, you roll out an automated development setup more broadly, collect feedback from engineers, and turn a good tool into a widely used standard.

In a design session with a product team, you help reduce technical complexity and choose sensible standard components instead of custom-built solutions where appropriate.

In the afternoon, you prioritize the most important DevEx and infrastructure topics with Engineering Leads: What needs a tool? What needs a standard? What needs better documentation or enablement?

The foundation: You have built, operated, and further developed complex production systems.
Developer mindset: You think like a developer. You solve problems through good tools, clear processes, and meaningful automation — you do not just manage problems, you build solutions.
The stack: You are confident in a modern cloud landscape around AWS, Kubernetes, and Terraform. You already cover parts of our extended stack, such as PostgreSQL, Airflow, Prometheus, Go, Python, Kotlin, React, GitLab, and Atlassian.
Pragmatic AI approach: AI tools and agents are part of your standard toolkit. You enjoy experimenting, but you also know when a simple script is the more stable choice.
Your leadership style: You provide clarity and orientation, listen actively, and help others succeed — because their success is your success.

Bonus, but not required

Experience with ISO 27001, BSI C5, or SOC 2
German language skills are helpful, but not required

You are a good fit if …

you do not just want to operate infrastructure, but make engineering teams sustainably more productive;
you can combine technical depth with enablement, communication, and pragmatism;
you see standards as enablers that free up developers’ minds and make the organization more effective;
you read incidents and manual workarounds as valuable signals for structural improvement.

What this role is not

This role is not a firefighting job for infrastructure problems and not a ticket loop for deployments, permissions, setups, and short-term workarounds.

Of course, you will work on operational topics. But your actual mission is different: you build structures, standards, and tools that enable engineering teams to work more independently, more securely, and more productively.

And this is not a fully built setup with a playbook sitting on the shelf. We are looking for someone who shapes, prioritizes, experiments, measures impact, and takes Developer Experience and infrastructure at Damedic to the next level.For better readability, Damedic does not use gender-neutral differentiation throughout this job posting. All terms apply equally to all genders. The shortened language form does not imply any evaluation.
