Who we are

We are here to improve lives by restoring sight worldwide by a robotic platform for vision saving surgery. Our company will improve the way ophthalmic surgery is delivered to vision impaired individuals now and for decades to come.

We are rapidly growing, funded by leading international VCs, and are looking to expand our small, motivated, multi-disciplinary and phenomenal team. Joining us is an opportunity to work towards saving vision across the globe, collaborating with others to realize a dream, and tackle an enormous challenge that will help drive your career forward.


** Our office is currently located in Yoqneam Illit and will be relocating to Caesarea, near the train station, in November 2025.


Who we are looking for

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.
