Psychiatrische Universitätsklinik Zürich (PUK) is a 1,870-founded public academic hospital operating 2,600 staff across four psychiatric specialties in the greater Zürich region. The tech stack is enterprise-standard (SAP, Active Directory, Citrix, NetApp, VMware) — typical for large healthcare systems — with no active tech adoption or replacement visible, suggesting operational stability prioritized over modernization. Hiring remains healthcare-heavy (101 of 121 open roles), with scattered mid-level ops and engineering support roles, indicating the organization runs a traditional hospital model focused on clinical delivery and construction expansion rather than digital transformation.
