What are we looking for?

IrisVision is looking for a full stack Software Engineer to join the newly created Research and Development team onsite in Pleasanton, CA. In this role you will be working closely with product and leadership to develop and launch new products within the market. These products are changing the way ophthalmologists and patients give and receive eye-care. Engineers on this team will have an exciting opportunity to see their products launch quickly and often into the hands of our partner clinics, gather feedback, and make changes in order to commercialize to a wide range of customers. The research and development team will use a mix of XP and SCRUM methodologies in order to launch quickly, pivot when needed, and maintain a high quality codebase as required by the FDA for medical device software.

This role is a full stack engineering role where engineers will be responsible for the development, testing, and releasing of software on AWS. Engineers will have the opportunity not only to produce industry-changing software, but to shape and define the culture and process within IrisVision. At IrisVision, engineers are given the autonomy to do what is right, take risks, and fail fast. We are not looking for engineers who implement what they are told, but to innovate and take risks in order to build products that change the lives of our customers that are dealing with vision issues in ways they never could have imagined.

We want engineers that are looking to take their career into their own hands and drive their own growth with the support of leadership. We are a startup, and you will be given every opportunity to move into the role you have always dreamed of. Our only ask is that you have the drive and excitement to take the initiative and make it happen.
