Work on first-of-its-kind wearable biosensing technology, solve unsolved engineering problems, and see your work move rapidly from concept to real-world impact.

We’re building the world’s first continuous, needle-free hormone monitor.

This is a hard, deeply interdisciplinary engineering problem, and we’re looking for someone who wants to be a part of the team to solve it.

What you will do:

  • Design and optimize microfluidic systems for sweat sampling in real-world conditions
  • Engineer the sensor stack from skin interface to signal
  • Run rapid experimental cycles to validate performance and durability
  • Design for manufacturability from day one
  • Work closely with science, electrical, and product teams

What we want:

  • 5+ years in advanced microfluidics for sensing platforms
  • Strong mechanical design and CAD fluency
  • Experience with wearable microfluidics (sweat biofluid, and iontophoresis experience is a bonus)
  • Evidence of execution: shipped products, patents, or breakthrough work
  • Familiar with electrochemical sensing modalities (SWV, EIS, CV, etc.)
  • Familiar with Aptamer-based sensing

What we offer:

  • Real technical ownership and influence over core product architecture
  • Meaningful equity in a venture-backed company
  • The opportunity to build technology that will ship, scale, and change how people understand their health
  • A fast-moving, deeply interdisciplinary environment with scientists, engineers, and founders working side-by-side
  • Tight experimental cycles and a culture focused on execution and learning

We invest in our team's health

  • Medical and dental insurance
  • 401(k) matching
  • Gym and wellness subsidies
  • Wearable devices and health tools
