Full-stack Developer Python (m/f/d), AI-based Cancer Diagnostics

Welcome to Mindpeak!

We are a Hamburg, Germany-based startup dedicated to democratizing cancer diagnostics. By leveraging artificial intelligence, we enhance pathologists' ability to identify cancer quickly and accurately. Our AI solution is the first to be implemented in clinical histopathology for primary diagnostics in the USA.

We address a critical challenge in modern healthcare: the growing demand for medical image analysis amid a static number of cancer experts. Utilizing state-of-the-art deep learning, we develop support tools for visual diagnosis that enable cancer experts to deliver reliable results and concentrate on areas where human expertise is essential. Optimizing cancer diagnostics with machine learning is complex and demands top-tier talent. At Mindpeak, you'll collaborate with industry leaders in deep learning, pathology and entrepreneurship.

We need you to make a difference in the world and shape the future of cancer diagnostics!
