Phosphoenix

At Phosphoenix, we are developing a pioneering neuroprosthetic system designed to restore functional vision in people with profound blindness.

Our technology interfaces directly with the visual system of the brain using an innovative implant containing a high number of microelectrodes. By electrically stimulating precisely targeted neural structures, our goal is to create visual percepts that can help users navigate their surroundings and regain a meaningful degree of independence.

We are an ambitious Amsterdam-based MedTech company working at the intersection of neurotechnology, microfabrication, medical device engineering and neuroscience. Having advanced our technology through preclinical development, we are now preparing the next generation of our system and working towards first-in-human clinical evaluation.

We are looking for an experienced and hands-on Senior Medical Implant Engineer to help us take this technology through its next critical stage of development.
