For our location in Neu-Isenburg near Frankfurt, we are looking for a Junior Software Developer (f/m/d). The gross annual salary for this position starts at €36,000, depending on qualifications and experience.

Your job

Together with experienced colleagues you will work across data, AI and our digital platforms. Which parts you take on first depends on what you already bring and what you.

AI tools and prompting

  • You work hands-on with AI tools - LLM assistants, generative content and image tools, research tools and help colleagues in strategy, creation and media get more out of them.
  • You develop and refine prompts and simple decision logic for tasks we repeat often, and you document what actually works.
  • You support the build and testing of AI assistants for internal use, always with a human expert reviewing the output.

Automation and workflows

  • You sit down with the people whose work you are automating, break a process into its steps and find where the time is really going.
  • You build automations and workflows with low-code and no-code tools from a quick integration to a multi-step process and keep them running.
  • You connect tools, data sources and systems to each other, usually via APIs, exports or workflow tools.

Data, tracking and reporting

  • You prepare, structure and quality-check data sources  and you notice when something looks wrong.
  • You support tracking and analytics and help make sure what we measure is what we report.
  • You help build and maintain dashboards and recurring reports, so that colleagues and clients can see performance without asking for it.

Platforms and development

  • You support the build and upkeep of websites, portals, landing pages and internal 
  • You take on maintenance and continuous improvement of things that already exist, not only new builds.
  • You test what we build with realistic cases before it goes live, and you write down what you found.

Your profile

What is really important for this role
  • You genuinely want to learn. You are curious about how things work, you dig into a problem you do not understand yet, and you would rather ask a question than guess. Willingness to learn is the one requirement we cannot train.
  • You are open to new tools, to feedback, and to make “Mistak”. You say what you think in a discussion, and you change your mind when someone shows you something better.
  • You are hands-on. You would rather try something small and see what happens than write a concept about it for three weeks.
  • You work in a structured way and you write things down. You can explain what you did, why, and what you would do differently  and you enjoy getting colleagues excited about something you have figured out.
  • You are interested in healthcare. You do need to find it meaningful that the work here is about health, and to accept that a regulated industry has rules worth understanding.
  • You are reliable when it gets busy. Agency work has peaks. We are looking for someone who keeps a cool head and flags a problem early rather than late.
  • Languages: English, German

A “plus”, but by no means a “must”

Everything below is a bonus. Do not let a gap here stop you from applying and if you have something on this list that we did not ask for, tell us.
  • A degree informatics, data science, or something comparable or practical experience through internships, a working-student job, a bootcamp, or a career change.
  • First points of contact with AI tools - for example ChatGPT or Claude - your own routines for using them.
  • First experience with automation tools or scripts.
  • Basics in Python, JavaScript or SQL enough to read a script and change it, not enough to be scared of it.
  • An understanding of what an API is and roughly how one is called.
  • Basics in HTML and CSS.
  • First contact with with a BI tool such as Power BI or Tableau.
  • Any of your own projects  a small tool, an automation, a bot, a scraped dataset, a side project that got out of hand. We would genuinely like to see it.

Your application

Do you think we’d be a good fit? Then all we need from you is...
  • … your current resume
  • … any certificates or degrees that are particularly relevant to you
  • … your most recent two employment references (if you have any)
  • … and to better assess your skills and experience, we also expect: A brief description of one of your own projects — a small tool, an automation, a bot, a scraped dataset, or a side project that got out of hand. (Please upload this under “Arbeitsprobe”).
