Embedded Software Engineer

Passionate people who want to make a difference drive our culture - our team members are grounded in integrity, have a strong capacity to learn, have the energy to get things done, and bring diverse, real-world experiences to help us think in new ways. We actively invest in our team members to support their long-term growth so they can continue to advance our mission and achieve their highest potential.

We are looking for an enthusiastic and passionate Embedded Software Engineer to take a central role in our R&D team developing a surgical robotic platform that will revolutionize ophthalmic surgery. You will have the opportunity to work and design a first-in-market product within a dynamic, open, and fast-paced environment.

Who we are:

At ForSight Robotics, we are united behind our mission: we believe that robotic ophthalmic surgery is life-enhancing care. Through ingenuity and intelligent technology, we expand the potential of physicians to heal without constraints. As a pioneer and market leader in ophthalmic robotic-assisted surgery, we strive to foster an inclusive and diverse team, committed to making a difference. We lead with inclusion and empower our team members to do their best work as their most authentic selves.
