Enzyre, a spin-out of the Radboudumc, is located at the Novio Tech Campus in Nijmegen, The Netherlands. We are a rapidly growing company with a dynamic and inspiring SME culture. Our goal is to bring the laboratory to the patient by developing a bio-diagnostic point-of-care platform able to measure multiple biomarkers in just a few drops of blood by either the patient at home or nearby the patient by healthcare workers. We are looking for a lead software design engineer willing to work in an inspiring team in a flat organization with social impact? Are you also interested in point-of-care developments and are you curious about what it’s like to work in the medtech industry? Then read on!
Enzyre is building a point-of-care platform called the EnzySystem.

The EnzyPad is a hand held card-reader, whereas the complete EnzySystem is controlled by its user software the EnzyApp.
The EnzySystem will be focused on blood coagulation, the current core expertise of the company. The technology can however be applied more broadly in collaboration with partners with expertise in different fields.
