Senior DevOps Platform Engineer

Recare is the technology partner for optimal discharge management. With its SoftwareasaService platform the company enables simple and efficient discharge and transition processes for patients who require further care in areas such as nursing rehabilitation or home care after their hospital stay. Following the acquisition of Pflegeplatzmanager GmbH in the summer of 2023 the digital marketplace expands to include 650 acute care hospitals 550 rehabilitation clinics and 23000 other downstream service providers.

The ISO 27001 certified Recare platform allows hospitals to simultaneously request all potential service providers for postcare with all relevant data and automatically keep track of their acceptances or rejections instead of coordinating with them through dayslong processes via phone or fax. Hospitals can create a digital anonymized patient profile and transmit it to potential postcare providers. Secure file and message exchanges are also possible through a secure chat.

Renowned hospitals and hospital groups such as Sana Kliniken AG Vivantes Munich Klinik Hannover Medical School and the University Hospital Essen are among Recares customers utilizing the platform of the same name.

Founded in 2017 Recare is currently a leader in the digital discharge management sector in terms of marketplace size security technical integrations and interoperability. The company employs approximately 90 individuals and is headquartered in Berlin.

Tasks

Tech stack:

• Backend code. Were a Go shop. We are big fans of the limitations of the language that enables everyone to write similar code without the stress of code style debates.
• Infrastructure. We try to keep simple architecture which is cloud provider agnostic a set of web servers running in orchestrated containers a managed PostgreSQL database and a managed redis cache. We have a hybrid cloud setup our german infra is hosted on TSystems and our french infra is still on AWS but we plan to migrate to a french provider for legal concerns.
• Monitoring. We have tried a lot of solutions but decided to go allin with Datadog (metrics logs security and tracing through APM).
• CI. We use CircleCI to validate and deploy our code.
• Frontend code. Our frontend apps are built in React and React Native. We use GraphQL to communicate between the apps and the backend.

Some projects youll work on as a (Senior) DevOps / Platform Engineer:

Hybrid cloud setup

We recently migrated to a hybrid multi cloud infrastructure for legal reasons where we may need to have one local cloud provider in each country we operate France (currently AWS) and Germany (current Telekom). We have picked open source technologies (Terraform / Kubernetes / OpenStack) for ease of migration.

Continuous integration and deployment

• Automatically flag commits which introduced regressions
• Automate the deployment of our Embedded Analytics solution (Quicksight)
• Automate the deployment and release of native applications

Access management

• Remove all password authentication to connect to servers (SSO for devs)
• Automatically rotate any server credentials accesses
• Provide the right access roles for any user

Platform

• Work on the clients for our cache / databases (golang)
• Implement & use tracing over our platform

Security

• Setup application security monitoring & WAF access control
• Conformity to our ISO 27001 certification

Monitoring

• We want to sleep at night and on weekends (and currently doing so) for that reason we believe in automation. The idea is to build and use tools that do the work for us and notify us when something goes south it doesnt happen very often but when it does its better to be prepared.

BI stack

We have an mature BI infrastructure which connects multiple sources to our ELT pipeline (Stitch DBT Snowflake) and finally Looker for visualisation.

You will work primarily with the Head of Engineering the Lead Backend Engineer and the backend dev team.
