More about this role

Numen is a San Francisco-based team building technology to drive cancer mortality toward zero. Our goal is to compress every patient's journey from the first signal of disease to optimal treatment with earlier, easier detection. Backed by Y Combinator, we are a dynamic team across bioscience, engineering, machine learning, and design, building diagnostics from the ground up.

This role supports electrical, mechanical, and software tasks, under the direction of an experienced engineering team. The ideal candidate is someone who is eager to build systems that solve real-world problems, with the ability to critically evaluate signals and systems outputs.
