Germany's largest private hospital operator with 170+ facilities across 14 states
Asklepios runs a geographically distributed network of acute-care and specialized hospitals across Germany, employing 49,000 staff. The tech stack is heavily weighted toward clinical systems (SAP, GE Healthcare imaging, PACS, da Vinci surgical robots) with emerging adoption of commercetools, suggesting a move toward patient-facing digital services. Hiring is almost entirely clinical (94% healthcare roles) with a 351-role surge in the last 30 days—but only 11 engineering and 5 marketing posts—indicating Asklepios is scaling capacity and service lines rather than investing in tech product velocity.
Notable leadership hires: Chief Physician Secretary, Chief Physician, Chief Forensic Physician, Visceral Surgery Lead, Team Lead Emergency Department
