Software & Analysis
Professional, Freelancer

Are you a passionate and experienced Test Engineer and do you want to help building the future of healthcare?  Would you like to work in Hasselt (Corda Campus) or Leuven (UZ Leuven) in a no-nonsense environment where mutual respect, appreciation and transparency are central? Then perhaps nexuzhealth has a suitable challenge for you. Nexuzhealth NV is a young joint venture between UZ Leuven and Cegeka. We are the combination between the knowledge and experience of these two large organizations supported by the passion and drive of a start-up. We are building and implementing the Clinical Workstation (KWS), a software platform for supporting medical care and electronic patient records.  We also help our clients implement and optimize the applications in their own environment. Our platform is used by almost half of Flemish hospitals in their daily operations. Perhaps you have already used our patient app mynexuzhealth. Would you like to grow with us? We are currently building a completely new platform that will bring healthcare to the cloud. We are using the latest technologies, such as Google Go(Lang) and Cloudspanner. We are not only laying the foundation for a later transition for hospitals and healthcare institutions, but at the same time we are also working on two completely new applications on the platform. In this way, we will be supporting family doctors and home care nurses, as well as hospitals and healthcare institutions. For this, we are looking for enthusiastic and driven developers with an affinity for healthcare to join us in fulfilling our ambition. Within a team, we develop the application and build a part of the platform. Are you interested in Google Go(Lang) and would you like to dive deep into it? We train you internally in the technology so you can help build tomorrow's healthcare. Do you already have experience in Google Go(Lang)? Make sure to apply soon! #LI-LL1
