Ui Ux Designer-Jobs in Deutschland

At Heartbeat Medical, we build a platform that enables healthcare providers to collect and analyze patients’ pre- and post-treatment input, empowering them to improve care based on the most important data point there is — each individual’s health-related quality of life.

Our product, heartbeat OS, is developed in close collaboration with medical professionals to serve the needs of multiple user groups:

• Patients: surveys and recommendations;

• Clinicians: task management and analytics tools;

• Administrative personnel at hospitals and insurance companies: reporting and data visualization features;

• Internal teams: set up and maintain customers and their care pathways on our platform

…all within a fully GDPR-compliant infrastructure.

Founded in 2014, Heartbeat Medical is Germany’s leading provider of digital Patient-Reported Outcomes (PROs) and Value-Based Healthcare (VBHC). Leading hospitals, more than 60 health insurers, and regulators trust our platform and share our vision: that Patient-Reported Outcomes should guide healthcare decisions — enabling better outcomes, greater transparency, and true patient centricity. Our work currently spans orthopedics, childbirth, malnutrition, and dermatology, with plans to grow further.

A SEAT AT THE TABLE
At Heartbeat Medical, we believe that today’s social structures disproportionately disadvantage people from marginalized communities — including People of Color, people with disabilities, working‑class individuals, single parents, women, and members of LGBTQIA+ communities. We also believe that these groups must be actively included in the workforce! Therefore, we explicitly encourage people with these identities or from other marginalized communities to apply. We do not require a photo, nor information about your gender or legal status.

ACCESS TO THE OFFICE
Our office is wheelchair accessible in most areas. There is a ramp to enter the building (though no automatic doors), wheelchair‑accessible restrooms, and desks.
