Senior Firmware Engineer / Lead (Salvia BioElectronics)

• Locatie: Eindhoven, Noord-Brabant
• Type: Permanent
• Vacature #30

We are looking for a senior Firmware / Lead developer for our client: Salvia BioElectronics.

The human body is controlled by patterns of electrical impulses transmitted through nerve fibers. In chronic disease, these patterns are different. Bioelectronics are tiny implantable devices that use mild electrical pulses to influence nerve activity. Electrical stimulation is nothing new – cardiac pacemakers have been used for decades – but scientists are just beginning to realize the possibilities of regulating nerve signals to treat disease.

Our client is an innovative and ambitious start-up company active in the emerging field of “BioElectronics” that is inspired by biology and electronics to provide novel therapeutic solutions. They are driven to deliver bioelectronic solutions that restore health for people suffering from severe neurologic disorders and the ambition is to make these therapies widely accessible.

The Salvia team consists of entrepreneurs, engineers and scientists with diverse professional backgrounds and extensive medical device industry experience (Sapiens, Medtronic, Philips, St Jude, etc.). Salvia is headquartered in Eindhoven (HTC)
