Vitestro is a fast-growing medical robotic company. We are the first in the world to develop a fully autonomous blood-drawing device using a combination of state-of-the-art A.I. and robotics. With our multidisciplinary team of >30 people we strive to innovate and improve clinical diagnostics, increasing resilience of our healthcare systems.

To strengthen our software development team, we are looking for an experienced C++ developer/computer vision engineer, who is as passionate about developing medical robotic systems as we are.

Responsibilities

You will be responsible for developing, evaluating and maintaining our real-time vision algorithms of our robotic device. This involves feature extraction from image sensors (using both traditional computer vision and deep learning algorithms), 3D reconstruction, geometric processing, and pattern recognition. Part of this work will also include developing/maintaining the tooling/infrastructure for visualization, annotation, verification, and validation of the algorithms. In addition, you will work on general software engineering tasks, needed to bring a medical robotic device to the market.

In your work, you always keep in mind you are developing a medical device. Patient safety and regulatory requirements are therefore paramount. A considerable part of your work will be spent on (code) reviews, testing, continuous integration, documentation and supporting clinical trials.
