<div class="show-more-less-html__markup show-more-less-html__markup--clamp-after-5 relative overflow-hidden"> <p><strong>Why we are doing this</strong></p><p><br/></p><ul><li><strong>Hospital care in Germany is under structural strain.</strong> Two thirds of hospitals operate at a loss, and most are stretched in staff, beds, and budgets. At the same time, modern surgery has moved on — many procedures that still mean an overnight stay no longer medically require one. The result: patients stay longer than they need to, infrastructure carries avoidable load, and the system absorbs costs it could avoid.</li><li><strong>We're building a new generation of ambulatory surgery centres in Germany to change this.</strong> Software-driven from day one. Designed to get people back to their lives faster, and to make outpatient surgery the default — not the exception.</li><li><strong>Healthcare is a complex space. We are set up to make a difference:</strong> Our leadership team has built and scaled 5+ successful ventures; we are backed by top tech and healthcare investors; and with multiple clinical partners onboard we are ready to move fast.</li></ul><p><br/></p><p><strong>What you’ll do</strong></p><p><br/></p><ul><li><strong>You take product ownership of TokuraOS</strong> — <strong>the “orchestration engine” that sits on top of existing clinic stacks, orchestrating the entire care pathway end to end</strong>, from patient intake to surgery, recovery, and daily operations, connecting digital patient journeys, on-site infrastructure, and a unified data layer into a production-grade platform. <em>Greenfield. Built to work when a surgeon is standing in the operating room. Built to scale across 100+ clinics.</em></li></ul><p><br/></p><p><strong>What the role offers</strong></p><p><br/></p><ul><li><strong>First product hire.</strong> Clear path to building, shaping and leading the product organisation alongside our CPTO. A rare opportunity to define a mission-critical product from ground-up.</li><li><strong>Real ownership from day 1.</strong> You shape the vision, define the roadmap, own how the product behaves in real clinic environments, and drive the end user change management. You'll split your time between product development — deciding what we build, for whom, and why it matters — and hands-on field research in and out of the OR.</li><li><strong>Strategic freedom by design.</strong> We have a strong hypothesis on what we need to build when, but the final product roadmap is intentionally open, to be co-shaped with you.</li><li><strong>“Full-stack” in the truest sense.</strong> We're not <em>just</em> building a technical product — we're building and operating physical clinics; harder than a pure software play, but far more impactful.</li><li><strong>Small, top-tier, high-trust team.</strong> You’ll work side by side with our CPTO (serial tech founder (YCombinator), ex-McK) and an experienced founder-duo that has built and scaled multiple hyper-growth startups to 400+ employees.</li></ul><p><br/></p><p><strong>What you bring</strong></p><p><br/></p><p><strong><em>Essential</em></strong></p><p><br/></p><ul><li>You've shaped products with meaningful usage in complex, real-world environments.</li><li>The ability to translate the messy reality of a care journey into an experience that feels <em>genuinely</em> different — for patients, providers, and the broader care team. From intake to post-op recovery: every touchpoint is yours to understand deeply and shape optimally.</li><li>You are a strategic thinker, bring structure to any analysis, have an eye for design. You are comfortable in the space where product meets tech.</li><li>A strong pull toward learning. Trajectory matters more than credentials and experience.</li><li>Structured thinking, clear communication. You build trust quickly, whether you're with a surgeon, a nurse, or a patient.</li><li>High ownership, reliability, and a bias toward shipping with fast feedback loops.</li></ul><p><br/></p><p><strong><em>Bonus</em></strong></p><p><br/></p><ul><li>Prior experience working with sensitive data and/ or in regulated environments where compliance and data protection are design constraints, not afterthoughts.</li><li>Healthcare/ healthtech background.</li></ul><p><br/></p><p><strong>Logistics</strong></p><p><br/></p><ul><li>Berlin. On-site. Start ASAP.</li><li>Attractive compensation with meaningful equity upside.</li><li>Professional German required.</li></ul><p><br/></p><p><strong>We value judgment over process, clarity over complexity, and systems that work over systems that impress.</strong> We believe the best products emerge when everyone understands the real environments their work serves and takes ownership of what we design, build, and ship.</p><p><br/></p><p>If this resonates, let’s talk.</p> </div>
