InSyte Bio Position Description
Nearly 1 in 3 cancer surgeries leave cells behind, doubling the rate that cancer returns. InSyte Bio s mission is to eliminate the recurrence by ensuring removal of all cancer cells during surgery. We have developed a surgical imaging system that can detect cancer cells 10,000 times more precisely than existing solutions in real-time, during surgery, enabling surgeons and oncologists to effectively combat the spread of cancer. The system integrates advances in chip design, microfabricated optics, and pharmaceutical chemistry to create a fusion of molecular imaging agents and advanced imager design.
- Opportunity
- To solve one of the biggest problems in cancer - that surgery, essential to curing cancer, often fails because surgeons cannot identify every tumor.
- To become a leader, across a team of engineers, surgeons, chemical biologists to create a state of the art platform to guide cancer surgery.
- Growth - become an essential member, with both a significant role and equity stake in the growth of a new and innovative company
- Exposure to business development
Skill Set
- Degree (BS/BA with experience in Lab/research setting or MS, PhD, ScD) in Physics, Engineering (Electrical, EECS, ECE, Bioengineering, Mechanical Engineering) or closely related fields
- Hands-on laboratory experience is required. Let us know what you have made, and what problems you had to solve to get your device/system/chip working.
- Expertise in device packaging
- Ideally with special attention/experience in biomedical devices
- Assembly of optical and electronic devices
- 3D CAD design (experience with AutoCAD, SolidWorks)
- Capable of design of device optimized for size (eg for eventual use in minimally invasive surgeries), durability, mechanical stability.
- Passionate to learn and explore new domains, such as object tracking algorithms, materials for surgical devices/packaging.
- Familiarity with assembly of electronics. Comfortability with FPGA, PC Board design, board-level assembly (e.g. integration of components spanning analog to digital, including amplifiers, and ADCs.)
- Desire to work with optics, and integration of optics and electronics. Ideally also has experience working with integrated optics.
- Ability to work with biological/fluidic samples (experience preferred but not required) such as tissue samples.
- Works well in a team, adaptable with respect to project tasks
- Organized as you will need to keep track of multiple stakeholders in bringing together the product.
