About the role
We are looking for a Senior Engineer who is ready to step up into disciplinary and technical leadership. You're a React Native expert who wants to lead a team where the "Definition of Done" includes making someone's recovery possible.
What you'll do
- Manage Multiple Projects: Effectively oversee and orchestrate development across several concurrent projects, including our white-label mobile apps, web applications, and core React Native mobile apps
- Shape the Engineering Culture: You are the mentor and disciplinary lead for the team. You don't just "manage" them; you empower them to grow, collaborating closely through Scrum while remaining hands-on with the code yourself
- Technical Sovereignty & Pragmatism: From day one, you own the technical roadmap of our application. You have a knack for cutting through complexity to make simple, pragmatic decisions on how we evolve our product to meet patient needs without over-engineering
- Pioneer AI & Automation: Actively use LLMs for coding and spearhead the development of a multi-agent environment to multiply the team's efficiency and capabilities
- Bridge Technology & Therapy: Work at the heart of Combined Care. You'll collaborate directly with Rehabilitation and Prevention experts to translate medical expertise into intuitive mobile experiences
- Set New Standards & Drive Innovation: As a key partner for Product and Design, you ensure that our frontend isn't just user-friendly, but a benchmark for digital health accessibility
What you'll need
- Mindset & Attitude: You possess a strong "can-do" attitude and a growth mindset, always eager to learn, adapt, and tackle new challenges with positivity
- React Native & Mobile Ecosystem: You have extensive experience in mobile application development, specifically within the React Native ecosystem, and a proven track record of mentoring or leading engineering teams
- OTA Updates: You are highly experienced in practicing Over-the-Air (OTA) updates to ensure smooth, continuous delivery for mobile applications
- AI-Assisted Engineering: You actively use LLMs in your daily coding workflows and have the knowledge and vision to build and integrate multi-agent environments for your team
- Frontend Mastery: You are an expert in modern JS frameworks with years of experience in both web/frontend and mobile development
- Full-Stack Understanding: You have a strong interest in backend technologies (such as Node.js, TypeScript, and/or Ruby on Rails) and can effectively bridge the gap between frontend and backend architectures
- Quality & Testing: You have experience with end-to-end testing frameworks (like Cypress) and guide the team in implementing best practices for test coverage and code quality
- Value-Driven Execution: You can analyze complex customer requirements and quickly develop intuitive, pragmatic solutions that provide significant, tangible value to patients
What they offer
- Remote-first with flexible working hours – office optional in Berlin-Mitte or up to 90 days a year outside of Germany
- Monthly home office allowance and additional meal subsidy
- 30 vacation days per year
- Budget for learning & development, conferences, and coaching
- High level of ownership and decision-making freedom – no micromanagement
- Access to all Caspar offerings for mental and physical well-being
