Digital rehabilitation platform combining remote therapy with in-person clinical care
Caspar Health operates a hybrid care model pairing a digital therapy application with onsite therapist teams across partner clinics in Germany. The tech stack reveals a healthcare-native infrastructure: Ruby on Rails + React Native for patient-facing apps, PostgreSQL + AWS for data, and active adoption of HL7 and FHIR standards for healthcare system interoperability. Current hiring focus on security leadership (CISO role), compliance projects (ISO 27001 re-audit, BSI C5), and third-party risk management signal that scaling clinic network growth now hinges on deepening security and data-handling maturity.
