Full-time, permanent.
Start: as soon as possibleWhat this is aboutCareship helps families find reliable support in everyday life: all across Germany, through self-employed caregivers and our own employed caregivers.
Behind both stands a platform we built entirely ourselves, live since August 2026: a Python backend, an internal staff portal, an app for customers and an app for caregivers.
The system covers everything from the first inquiry to payroll: matching, scheduling, care budgets, billing with care insurance funds, payment processing and digital contracts, plus email, chat, WhatsApp and phone calls in one inbox.
It is live, it runs the operations of two companies, and it grows every week.
This is why we are looking for the second person in our permanent engineering duo.
Your roleYou work as one of two engineers on our system, with a focus on the Python backend: data model, business logic, APIs and the integrations our operations run on.
If full stack is your thing, the rest is open to you: the staff portal in Next.
js and our two apps in React Native.
You share responsibility and cover for each other, in everyday work and during vacations.
You build features from the data model through the business logic to the finished API endpoint, and all the way to the screen if you want.
You work on core topics like the budget engine, billing, the payroll pipeline and matching.
Logic where diligence really counts.
You maintain code in production that real people use every day: our operations team, caregivers, and customers with their families.
You work directly with product and the tech lead, no layers in between.
