What's Barkibu?
Hey there!
Barkibu is a tech company dedicated to ensuring dogs and cats receive the medical care they need without the worry of high expenses.
We dream of a world where every pet can access top-tier healthcare without financial barriers and are committed to supporting pets and their owners for a joyful, thriving life together.
Our team comprises pet lovers from Spain, Germany, France, Belgium, Croatia, Russia, Morocco, Argentina, Brazil, Romania, Italy, Poland, and Portugal.

As a Software Engineer, you will be part of our Claims team, responsible for the full development cycle of the reimbursement claims decision-making process for our clients. This includes analyzing veterinary documents and invoices, and implementing automated validation systems to determine coverage eligibility.
This process handles over €50 million annually in reimbursements, with an opportunity to save €2 million for the company, making this a high-impact role.
The Claims team focuses on automating pet health insurance claims processing, a critical challenge for us. Pet parents upload documents through our app for reimbursement, and our system analyzes these to make accurate coverage decisions, handling complex scenarios like pre-existing conditions, waiting periods, and detailed invoice evaluation.
