Job Description

Will you help lay the foundation for a future-proof platform that truly supports mental healthcare professionals? At HCI, we are building a new, complex Electronic Health Record (EHR) system for mental healthcare (GGZ). This is not a greenfield side project, but software that will soon be used daily by thousands of healthcare professionals. The current system remains operational, so you’ll be building the new platform while the business continues as usual. Our ambition: go live within 2–3 years. Some say it can’t be done. We believe it can. What will you do At HCI CRS, you develop software that makes a real impact in mental healthcare every day. You ensure that practitioners can rely on systems that are stable, secure, and user-friendly.

In short: You help build a new platform (C#/.NET, Azure, microservices) to replace the current EHR You mainly write new code (±90%), this is not a bug-fixing factory You work on integrations (APIs) with other healthcare systems — stable and secure, because it simply has to work You contribute to architectural decisions that will still make sense five years from now You translate feedback from mental healthcare professionals into concrete product improvements You help your colleagues grow (code reviews, sparring, knowledge sharing, growth mindset) You’re not here to just tick off tickets. You’re here to build something that needs to be right — technically and functionally. And yes, sometimes that means solving complex puzzles while everything keeps running.
