Join us and be at the forefront of making healthcare better for everyone, everywhere. 

In your internship at a globally leading medical technology company, you’ll be right in the middle of the action: Our team is specialized in the development of clinical navigation systems for minimally invasive ENT surgery. Clinical navigation systems (Stryker Scopis System) are used to guide surgeons by displaying the position of medical instruments on three-dimensional CT or MRI data of the patient, and ultimately to precisely reach anatomical targets. The team uses the latest technologies such as computer vision, augmented reality and AI for computer-assisted surgery.
