AssistMe is a young, growing health tech start-up with a big vision: we want to improve everyday care in the long term – for everyone involved.
With our digital care assistance system alea, we bring innovation directly to the bedside. Our sensor-based solution for incontinence and movement monitoring reduces the workload for caregivers, improves care for patients, and protects the environment at the same time.
What drives us:
- More time for real care: alea reduces unnecessary check-ups and simplifies processes
- Better quality of life: for residents who receive dignified and individualized care
- Less stress: for caregivers who can act in a more targeted manner
- Less waste: through more efficient use of resources

What we are looking for:
- You are currently enrolled at a German university in Chemistry, Biochemistry or a related field (Bachelor or Master's degree)
