We are AMBOSS, and we’re looking for a Backend Engineer in the Educator Experience team
Engineers at AMBOSS are at the forefront of shaping user experience for doctors and students, helping them make critical decisions, ultimately impacting the healthcare of billions of people worldwide
We are looking for someone with a passion for technology who wants to keep growing their engineering craft while helping the team raise its bar.
We work AI-first: agentic tools like Claude Code are part of our daily engineering workflow, and we are looking for someone excited to help shape how software gets built in this new era.
Join our agile team on a mission to enable institutions (like educational clinics, medical schools) to use AMBOSS resources efficiently and effectively when teaching their learners (e.g. residents and students)
Actively contributing to engineering projects within our new B2B product “Educator Tool”, from conception to completion
Apply best practices in code health, testing, and maintainability, and help us improve them
Use AI and agentic tools (like Claude Code) across the development lifecycle, from exploration and implementation to testing and code review
Collaborate with cross-functional teams to refine project requirements and specifications
Address Ad-Hoc requests from customer support channels
Share your knowledge within the AMBOSS community, contributing to a culture of continuous learning and growth
Benefits
Tenure Days: Every two years +1 day, up to 33 days (Apply after 2+ years seniority)

AMBOSS will support you in your visa process. We and our partners are here to take the burden of your shoulders when you move
Preferred experience
Experience building and integrating APIs (GraphQL and/or RESTful) and working with relational database design
Good problem-solving and analytical skills, and the ambition to take on increasingly complex technical challenges
Taking initiatives, having analytical mindset, being proactive and solution-oriented
A sense of ownership and the drive to see topics through
Good verbal and written communication skills in English, able to explain technical concepts clearly to different stakeholders
Familiarity with SOLID principles, clean code, and common design patterns, and interest in applying them in day-to-day work
Solid hands-on experience with PHP and at least one of its modern frameworks (such as Symfony, Slim, Laravel), plus MySQL
Experience across the web development lifecycle, including coding, testing, deployment, and maintenance; exposure to requirements analysis and system design is a plus
Curiosity, being interested in optimizing processes, learning domain’s ins and outs
Proficient in using Git for version control, including branching, merging, and code review processes
Solid experience using AI coding tools such as Claude Code (or similar), and exposure to agentic engineering workflows
Impact in a meaningful domain. You’re excited that what you build helps medical educators teach more effectively and, ultimately, helps their learners become better clinicians
Teaching and enabling others. You light up when explaining complex concepts in simple terms, and you enjoy mentoring teammates and sharing knowledge that levels up the whole team
Making the complex feel simple. You take pride in abstractions that hide complexity while remaining flexible. You enjoy the challenge of making powerful tools feel intuitive and approachable
The details AND the big picture. You can obsess over the fine details of a user-facing flow one moment and architect a complete feature the next. You find satisfaction in both micro and macro optimizations
Systematic thinking with pragmatic execution. You love creating order from chaos and establishing patterns, but you also know when to ship an 80% solution that delivers value now rather than pursuing perfection
Collaborative deep work. You thrive in a balance of focused coding time and collaborative design sessions. You’re equally comfortable whiteboarding with designers, pair programming with engineers, or diving deep into a complex problem solo
Even if you don’t meet every single point in the job description, we still encourage you to apply. We’d love to hear from you!
