Your Impact

As a Senior Backend Engineer (m/f/d) at 7Mind, you’ll be part of a cross-functional team building technology that supports mental wellbeing at scale. You work end-to-end on features, take ownership of backend services and help shape a system that is reliable, maintainable and a pleasure to work with.

In 2025, we fully rewrote and relaunched the 7Mind app and backend. Our new platform follows Domain-Driven Design principles and deliberately focuses on “delightfully boring” solutions: simple, robust and built to last.

7Mind is part of the 7NXT Health Group (BuddyFit, Gymondo), bringing together strong engineering culture and a clear purpose: empowering people to live healthier lives. 

Your Mission

• Build and evolve backend features end-to-end: from concept and implementation to deployment and monitoring 
• Write clean, testable and maintainable code with a strong focus on long-term quality
• Maintain and improve integrations with third-party services
• Ensure a stable, observable and scalable backend in a B2C environment
• Take and share ownership of your services and share responsibility for the overall system
• Discuss trade-offs openly with product, design and other stakeholders
• Contribute to a strong engineering culture through code reviews, documentation and knowledge sharing

Gymondo & BuddyFit (digital fitness), 7Mind (mental health) and 7NXT Brand Solutions (publishing, retail, TV) help millions of people live healthier lives – physically and mentally.

We believe in trust rather than rigid structures. We give each other support and freedom to grow, learn from each other and ask questions that help us move forward. For us, working smart means working cleverly rather than endlessly.
And we never lose sight of what really matters: the people we do it all for. Their progress is what drives us. For us, responsibility doesn't end at the office door: sustainability, inclusion and diversity aren't buzzwords, they're part of our everyday life.
