OUR COMPANY

SonicPrecision is an early-stage MedTech startup with technology roots in Philips. We are active in the field of electrophysiology and we focus on improving the treatment of cardiac arrhythmias using an innovative ablation catheter design. By embedding ultrasound sensors in the tip of the ablation catheter, we provide real-time imaging and sensing capabilities during the intervention allowing the electrophysiologist to adapt the procedure to patient specific characteristics. With this closed loop approach, we aspire to create a new standard in the treatment of rhythm disorders in the heart by offering better options for the individual patient. 

To establish our clinical system, we are currently scouting for a Full Stack Software Engineer to drive the software stack of our minimal viable product.

ABOUT YOUR ROLE

As our software engineer, you will be responsible for designing the collection, interpretation and presentation of the data pipeline of the ultrasound sensing that will drive our proof of concept in a preclinical setting and the subsequent clinical system. You will prepare the software engine such that scaling towards a clinical system ready for first-in-human cases can be based on initial design choices. This means ensuring that the designs can be adapted to meet the requirements of stakeholders, regulatory standards and industry practices for the various phases of the development. 

YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES

• Designing, implementing, testing and maintaining the ultrasound data pipeline on the bench, in preclinical environments and the clinical system in the catheterization laboratory
• Owning the back end functionality that creates the actionable insights to personalize the ablation treatment
• Designing and developing the front end functionality in line with the phase of the project
• Developing the firmware of the system needed to drive the acquisition part of the solution
• Collaborating with external partners/suppliers to prepare and scale the project from pre- development phase towards the engineering cycle
• Preparing the software for the demonstrator system to be scaled to the first in human phase with focus on safety and reliability
• Structure documentation and reports required for this scaling (requirements, specifications, design, risk management, testing)
• Managing and extending the in-house software team

YOUR QUALIFICATIONS

• Master’s degree in computer science 
• ~3 years’ of coding experience in MedTech or healthcare, experience in minimally invasive healthcare software development will make a perfect candidate
• Technical skills with proficiency in software architecture, including frontend, backend, and firmware
• Understanding of regulations and standards, including regulatory and quality standards (FDA & ISO). 
• Knowledge of relevant programming languages, such as C#, C++, Java, Matlab, and Python / TensorFlow as a bonus for machine learning purposes
• Familiarity with software development methodologies, such as Scaled Agile or Scrum. 

OUR OFFER

SonicPrecision will offer compensation and benefits aligned with the job requirements and the startup nature of the company with potential to grow with the success of the company such as Stock Appreciation Rights. In addition we offer personal growth and career development:

• Access to cutting-edge technology (assets as developed within the Philips project) and ecosystem research facilities (such as the TU/e).
• Opportunities for professional development and continued education through mentoring by subject matter experts (such as HighTechXL as venture builder)
• Collaborative team-oriented culture with like-minded professionals.
