About Us

We are a pioneer and market leader for digital health data management in Germany. For over 25 years, we have been transforming the way medical image data is stored, shared, and utilized. Acting as the technical backbone for hospitals and medical practices, we manage over 30 petabytes of data via our innovative, vendor-neutral Cloud Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) and on-premise archive solutions.

With us, you will find flat hierarchies, high autonomy, and a team that tackles challenges together. We are looking for a senior technical professional who wants to move away from just "closing tickets" and instead bring long-term structure to our support processes, with the clear perspective to grow into a formal Team Lead role within 1–2 years.

Tasks & Responsibilities

In this role, your focus will be on high-level technical support, root-cause analysis, and process optimization. You will act as a driving force for quality, mentoring 3 junior team members and preparing to step into formal leadership.

• Technical Deep-Dive (2nd Level): Troubleshoot and resolve complex incidents relating to our cloud/archive solutions, applications, and front-end servers.
• Sustainable Problem Solving: Perform root-cause analyses and coordinate cross-departmental fixes to eliminate recurring support issues sustainably.
• Process Optimization & Structure: Drive the continuous improvement of our support and operations processes, bringing structure to the team's daily workflows.
• Customer Care & Escalation: Serve as a competent primary point of contact for IT staff and PACS teams in hospitals/practices, managing key account escalations.
• Monitoring & Knowledge Management: Monitor services on internal and customer systems, and maintain/expand system documentation and our internal knowledge base.
• Future Leadership: Prioritize tasks, allocate resources, and support the team as a senior mentor, with the mid-term goal of taking over functional and disciplinary leadership.
