Become part of a small team and shape the future of our grandparents' and parents' lives.
What we do
The first building block for our vision is to bridge the digital divide between the possibilities of the digital world and people that do not can or want to use a smartphone. In the last four years, we developed CARU care - a digital flatmate that provides access to digital services via voice.
"People want to grow old at home independently and actively.
Technology will be used to provide them with decentralized care. At the moment, we are therefore at the beginning of a massive transformation towards digital care.
CARU care is a state-of-the-art technology hardware-software platform to provide a reliable and simple interface between all stakeholders, enabling the digital care of the future."
Our products are CARU care (www.caru-care.com - smart home care alarm system) and CARU air (www.caruair.com - CO2 monitor and traffic light).
How we work
Because of our small team size, we heavily rely on automation. We fully embrace continuous integration and strive to achieve continuous delivery for as many systems as possible.
We give our engineers the autonomy they need by letting them organize themselves during our two-week sprints. At the same time, we encourage techniques like (remote) pair programming and code reviews.
Our principles:
Skills we value the most (ordered by importance): Curiosity / Urge to learn Experience with AWS (or other cloud offerings) Comfortable working in a distributed team Python expertise (or willingness to acquire) Communication (coaching/knowledge transfer, constructive discussion, pair programming, … ) Experience with modern frontend frameworks (preferably Vue.js) Experience with modern testing practices (CI/CD, TDD, … ) Experience with Event-Driven Architecture Experience with large scale IoT deployments

In our vision of the future, more and more people will grow old in their own homes. To make this possible, we need to change the approach to how we care for them. We believe that the virtual care home will become the norm and that's why we have already started to work on it today.
