BITMARCK operates the infrastructure backbone for 85% of German statutory health insurers, serving over 20 million insured persons. The tech stack—Kubernetes, OpenShift, Kafka, Azure, and observability tools (Dynatrace, Grafana, Prometheus)—reflects a containerized, cloud-native architecture under active modernization: replacing Docker with OpenShift, adopting OpenID Connect, and designing MLOps standards. The engineering-heavy hiring mix and active projects around XDR/SIEM, cloud migration, and performance monitoring signal infrastructure scaling and security hardening across a regulated, mission-critical workload.
