About Dignio

Dignio is on a mission to bring healthcare home. The global healthcare system is under immense pressure, and a key solution is shifting care to the patient's home - improving efficiency, reducing costs, and enhancing patient outcomes and experiences. At Dignio, we are building critical healthcare services and market-leading solutions that connect patients and healthcare professionals through an easy-to-use app, advanced technology, and connected devices that make remote care simple and effective.

The result? Patients feel more in control of their own health, healthcare providers can follow up more efficiently, and society benefits from fewer hospital visits and more sustainable care.

We are already working with 200+ municipalities, leading hospitals, and partners in Norway, the US, and Canada - and we’re just getting started! We’re one of Norway’s fastest-growing tech companies, working tirelessly to create tomorrow’s healthcare services. We're challenged daily - our work has a real impact on the lives of patients across the globe.

Now we're looking for a Software Engineer to join us in Oslo on our journey to become even more impactful - ready to revolutionize the healthcare industry together with us?

About the position

As a Software Engineer at Dignio, you’ll play a key role in developing, maintaining, and optimizing both new and existing backend services. You’ll build services that enable doctors and healthcare providers to respond to patient health alerts in real time, preventing critical health incidents and improving patient care. This role is mainly backend-focused, but we value a grasp of modern frontend development and a willingness to collaborate across the stack.

We believe some of your responsibilities will be to:

• Design, develop, and maintain scalable services and APIs for our backend web application(s)

• Translate product and user needs into high-quality technical solutions, and be part of deciding what we choose to build

• Work in cross-functional product teams and collaborate closely with product managers, designers, app developers, and other software engineers

• Write clean, reusable, and testable code that meets our high-quality standards

• When needed, development and maintenance of our client-facing web application

• Optimize system performance across devices and geographies, ensuring seamless user experiences

• Take part in our DevOps culture to ensure high availability, security, and observability

• Maintain solid documentation and contribute to process improvement and how we work with development

• Live after our Quality Management System to meet healthcare compliance and safety standards.

Who we believe you are

First of all, we believe you enjoy solving complex problems through code. We also believe you have:

• 4+ years of experience with backend development of web applications

• Solid experience with Python and FastAPI and/or Flask

• Experience with database technologies like PostgreSQL and SQLAlchemy

• Proficiency with tools like Git, Docker, and CI/CD pipelines, and have a commitment to clean, maintainable, and scalable code

• Experience working in cloud-based systems (AWS/GCP/Azure)

• An ambition to be part of deciding what we build, why, and how we build it -

• Ability to reason about architecture and communicate trade-offs of choices and decisions clearly

• Understanding of design patterns (e.g. dependency injection, service layers, etc.)

• Professional fluency in Norwegian (much of the documentation and many user interactions in healthcare are in Norwegian.), in addition to strong communication skills in English, both written and spoken.

Ideally, you also have experience with:

• JavaScript/TypeScript for backend (Node.js or Next.js) and frontend (React).

If you don’t meet every requirement, we’d still love to hear from you! We know the perfect fit can take many forms, and you might just be the Software Engineer we are looking for!

What’s in it for you?

• A vital role in our mission to empower people by bringing healthcare home.

• A fast-growing and ambitious tech environment that supports learning and experimentation.

• Encouragement to pursue hobby projects, meetups, and hackathons.

• Daily opportunities to solve meaningful, complex problems.

• Flexibility on working hours and home office.

• Free lunch, social activities, and a fun atmosphere.

• Excellent health and travel insurance for you and your family.

• Brand new offices in central Oslo.
