GERMAN speaking Medical Engineer

At DEO.care, we believe every hospital should run the operating room (OR) as efficiently as possible. Why? Because an efficient OR benefits everyone: patients get faster access to surgery, staff experience less stress, and hospitals save resources.

We achieve this by combining our proprietary data platform with on-site expertise to uncover potential improvement opportunities in the OR. Our approach enables hospitals to improve patient flow, optimize surgical capacity, and make better value-based healthcare (VBHC) decisions. We also support healthcare industry partners to introduce new technologies in a real-world, data-driven way.

We are a fast-growing health tech company headquartered in Belgium, working with hospitals across Europe. To strengthen our team, we are looking for a Medical Engineer.

As a Medical Engineer, you will be the bridge between data, clinical practice, and improvement. You will:

• Spend time in the operating room (typically 2 days per week) capturing and analyzing process data with DEO.care’s technology.
• Translate data-driven insights into practical, tailored strategies to improve OR efficiency.
• Advise hospital teams on implementing these improvements and act as a trusted partner.
• Build strong client relationships and contribute to DEO.care’s reputation as an expert in OR efficiency and VBHC.
• Support the growth of DEO.care by joining projects in marketing, training, product development, project management, and sales.

Your work will focus primarily on hospitals in Europe, with opportunities to support projects in other regions when relevant.

• Technical or medical background, ideally a master’s degree (or a relevant bachelor’s degree).
• Experience in consulting, process improvement, medical technology, or OR workflows are a strong plus.
• Excellent command of German & English. Knowledge of French, Dutch, and/or Italian is an advantage.
• Willingness to travel up to 50% across EMEA (occasional Sunday evening travel, compensated).
• European B driving license.
• Analytical skills to turn data into clear, solution-oriented actions.
• Confident, diplomatic communicator with strong presentation skills.
• Independent, proactive, and comfortable in a dynamic, entrepreneurial environment.
• Curious and eager to learn every day.

If you want to combine your technical expertise with hands-on impact in healthcare, we’d love to hear from you.
