Overview
At Spire Therapeutics, we are developing next-generation noninvasive neuromodulation technologies for the treatment of brain disorders using focused ultrasound. Our systems integrate advanced acoustics, neuronavigation, medical imaging, and embedded control software into a clinical therapy platform intended for deployment across major clinical sites.
We are currently expanding our software capabilities as we transition from research-grade systems toward scalable clinical and commercial deployment.
Position Overview
We are seeking a highly capable Software Engineer to help professionalize and scale the control software and graphical user interface (GUI) for our focused ultrasound neuromodulation platform, DIADEM.
This role spans desktop application development, medical imaging workflows, algorithm validation, and regulated medical device software verification and validation (V&V). The ideal candidate is comfortable operating across both research and production software environments and can help convert sophisticated prototype systems into robust clinical software tools.
