XS-Innovations is hiring: Senior Design Engineer
Globally, 2.5 million patients rely on kidney dialysis machines three times a week as their lifeline. The high blood flow needed for these three-hour sessions is achieved through a surgically created connection between an artery and a vein in the arm. This permanent connection and continuous high blood flow lead to frequent complications, requiring at least bi-annual follow-up surgeries for each patient.
XS-Innovations, a pioneering medtech startup based in Leiden, is dedicated to drastically improving the quality of life for kidney patients. We are developing a cutting-edge Class III implantable valve that opens the connection between the artery and vein only when needed during dialysis. This device will be the first in a series of innovative, reliable, and life-saving technologies related to vascular access. We seek passionate and skilled Design Engineers to join our dynamic team and contribute to the next generation of medical devices.
As a Senior Design Engineer, you will be instrumental in developing a cutting-edge Class III implantable device for treating End Stage Kidney Disease (ESKD). You will collaborate with engineering partners and cross-functional teams, including R&D, Quality & Regulatory, Clinical, Test, and Manufacturing, to ensure our products meet the highest standards of safety, efficacy, and quality.
