Evoleen

Evoleen drives the digital healthcare revolution by creating built-to-buy start-ups. Evoleeners are entrepreneurs-at-heart. We take ownership for the realization of our start-ups and share both risks and returns. At Evoleen, you will be joining a team of highly motivated entrepreneurs that maintains a can-do culture marked by passion, honesty, and a love of good coffee.

We are looking for someone exceptional who is driven to make a real impact on the healthcare environment across the globe, who is excited to join a start-up company and to play an active role in shaping a start-up and its ecosystem and someone who understands this sector and who is willing to fully immerse themselves in the product.

Tasks

Start-Up CTO and Software Lead

We are looking for an engineer to fill the role as CTO / Software Lead. Your
mission will be to drive all software engineering tasks from the get-go. You
will interact with customers and users from the very beginning. Typically, your first task will be to create prototypes and MVPs to validate your tech stack and market assumptions. If this proves successful, your next task is to build the full product, launching and scaling it. You will closely cooperate with a team of entrepreneurs along this journey.

You are tech employee #1, so you will be expected to own and implement the tech stack yourself. You will grow the team as the case grows. The job is best
suited for current tech leads who still enjoy getting their hands dirty but are
looking for their first CTO assignment. Experience in medical devices is a plus
but not a requirement.

We are looking for someone who is willing to go into uncharted territory, for whom the experience of the journey matters more than following a pre-planned path. We are looking for someone who can work with the undefined and who thrives in a team of like-minded people, rather than working alone and doing things by the book.
