As part of the Entyre Group, Pflegewegweiser is one of the fastest-growing health tech scale-ups in the Swiss market. With offices in Zurich, Berlin, and Boston and more than 500 employees, we are redefining outpatient care: tech-enabled, fast, effective, and close to people. We combine high-quality care with operational excellence, clear processes, and a modern, technology-driven organization.
We believe that every person deserves to live a self-determined, dignified life at home, even when care is needed. Family caregivers provide tremendous support and deserve professional assistance, reliable structures, and genuine appreciation.

How We Operate – Non-Negotiable:
- "Insanely Great" for Families — Delivered Now
Forget mere “satisfaction.” We deliver support that makes caregivers feel seen, understood, and valued. Anticipate their needs and solve problems quickly. The standard is "Insanely Great," period. Anything less slows us down and fails our families. - Speed is King — Ruthless Focus is Key
Velocity comes from focus. Eliminate distractions. Concentrate all effort on the #1 critical objective until it’s done, then move on to the next. Decide what not to do and cut it ruthlessly. Being a mile wide and an inch deep is failure — move the needle now. - Raise the Bar — Crush Mediocrity
Mediocrity kills speed, morale, and companies. Hunt it down and eliminate it. Good enough is never good enough. Demand top performance from yourself and everyone around you. Own your work, deliver excellence fast, and accept no excuses. - The Speed Algorithm — Question, Delete, Simplify, Accelerate
Build momentum by questioning every requirement: who asked and why? Delete ruthlessly — parts, processes, bureaucracy. Simplify what remains. Accelerate cycle times relentlessly. “It can’t be done” means “You haven’t figured it out yet — go do it.” Break bottlenecks, find shortcuts, and remove friction. - Act Like Owners — Bold Bets, Fast Action
This is your company. Own the mission and the results. Take initiative, make bold bets that leapfrog progress, and act decisively. If you stumble, learn faster and go again. Bias for action is everything.
The Bottom Line:
We are building something vital at lightning speed. This requires intensity, focus, and a relentless drive to execute. If reading this makes you want to jump in and build faster, welcome to Pflegewegweiser. If not, get out of the way.
If you’re ready to grow with us and make a difference, we’d love to hear from you!
