need to upgrade our hydraulic brakes what should I ask for?

this is on ort e tandem between the wife and I and the beast its over 400 pounds. the Shimano deore hydraulics with 203 rotors have issues. the front starts making noise after a couple minutes of long braking and when we are going down steeper slopes on mountain bike trails we my not be able to fully stop if needed. plus we have to use the back more to keep the front wheel from sliding sideways. so I guess its time for 4 piston brakes. they have to work with my bosch setup. I love the Magura e bike brakes on my other bosch bike they are really powerful 2 piston brakes. so their 4 should be really good. or should Stick with Shimano ? and if so what ones? what kind of rotors should I get?
