Job description

The Company

Dexcom Corporation (NASDAQ: DXCM) ist ein Pionier und weltweit führend im Bereich der kontinuierlichen Glukoseüberwachung (CGM). Dexcom begann als kleines Unternehmen mit einem großen Traum: Die Art und Weise, wie Diabetes behandelt wird, für immer zu verändern. Informationen und Erkenntnisse zugänglich zu machen, die zu besseren gesundheitlichen Ergebnissen führen. Heute, 25 Jahre später, haben wir eine ganze Branche geprägt – und wir stehen erst am Anfang. Wir erweitern unsere Vision über Diabetes hinaus, um Menschen zu befähigen, ihre Gesundheit selbst in die Hand zu nehmen. Das bedeutet: personalisierte, umsetzbare Erkenntnisse, die darauf abzielen, wichtige gesundheitliche Herausforderungen zu lösen. Unser Ziel bleibt: Die menschliche Gesundheit zu verbessern.

Angetrieben werden wir von Tausenden ehrgeiziger, leidenschaftlicher Menschen weltweit, die wie Kämpfer darum ringen, das Vertrauen unserer Kundinnen und Kunden zu gewinnen – durch Zuhören, Integrität, große Visionen und Verlässlichkeit. Wir haben bereits Millionen Leben verändert – und sind bereit, Millionen weitere zu verändern.

Unsere Zukunftsvision ist es, ein führendes Unternehmen im Bereich der Gesundheitstechnologie für Verbraucher zu werden, während wir weiterhin Lösungen für ernsthafte Gesundheitsprobleme entwickeln. Wir werden dieses Ziel erreichen, indem wir kontinuierlich einzigartige Erfahrungen mit Biosensor-Technologie neu erfinden. Auch wenn wir weit von unseren Anfängen als kleines Unternehmen entfernt sind – unsere Träume sind größer denn je. Die Chance, die Gesundheit weltweit zu verbessern, liegt vor uns.
