Latvia's largest teaching hospital with organ transplant and research capabilities
Paula Stradiņa is a state-owned academic medical center and the country's seventh-largest employer, operating exclusively on legacy Microsoft infrastructure (Office, Horizon, Windows, BMS, SCADA). Hiring is concentrated almost entirely in clinical roles (89 of 110 open positions), with minimal engineering (2 roles) and data (1 role) capacity — typical of a traditional healthcare institution where IT is maintenance-focused rather than product-driven. Active projects center on HR systems, compliance, and internal process work, reflecting an organization scaling staffing and supply-chain operations rather than pursuing digital innovation.

With more than 3,500 employees across clinical, administrative, and research functions, it provides both emergency and planned care.
