About The Company
AIDO is an early stage medical robotics venture on a mission to transform the fight against cancer through innovation in robotic endoscopy. Originating from the world renowned
IHU Strasbourg
, the company is developing a novel robotic
"third hand" add-on for
flexible endoscopes, a compact and intuitive electromechanical assistant that enhances how therapeutic endoscopic procedures are performed.

AIDO's proprietary technology improves
ergonomics
,
stability
, and
instrument control
, reducing the physical strain and coordination burden typically placed on endoscopists. By making complex therapeutic procedures
easier
,
more reproducible
, and
more comfortable
to perform, AIDO enables physicians to treat cancers and pre cancerous lesions
endoscopically rather than surgically
, supporting earlier and non-invasive intervention for patients.

Validated by more than
60 clinicians
, AIDO is now entering a pivotal phase, industrializing its prototype into a clinical grade medical device, advancing regulatory pathways, and shaping future
AI enabled
capabilities.

The Role
AIDO is seeking a
hands-on CTO / Head of Engineering
who can lead product development end to end, establish the engineering foundation of the company, and drive the technical roadmap as it enters a new phase of growth.

This role combines strategic influence with deep technical execution. The successful candidate will work closely with suppliers, clinicians, and the CEO to bring a safe, intuitive, and robust device to market.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead the design, development, and validation of the electromechanical endoscopy-assist device.
  • Translate physician feedback into ergonomic, intuitive product improvements.
  • Build and implement the QMS (ISO and guide EU/US regulatory strategy.
  • Manage and challenge external suppliers while building internal engineering know-how.
  • Drive the V&V plan for CE (Class I initial version) and future 510(k) pathways.
  • Strengthen the company's IP position and contribute to technology strategy.
  • Support upcoming fundraising with technical expertise.
  • Build and lead AIDO's engineering team over time.

Profile Requirements

  • 10 years of experience (approx.) in medical devices, robotics, or electromechanical systems.
  • Track record bringing hardware-based medical devices from prototype to clinical or commercial launch.
  • Strong hands-on engineering ability (mechanical/electromechanical/AI).
  • Solid understanding of ISO 13485, CE marking, V&V, and ideally 510(k) processes.
  • Sensitivity to usability and clinical workflow constraints.
  • Comfortable working in early-stage environments with high ownership and autonomy.
  • Excellent communication with clinicians, engineers, and investors.
  • Experience in endoscopy, surgical robotics, imaging and/or AI is a strong plus.
