Prospective Exo User
“…to embrace my husband and children standing up! With their arms fully around me.”
Next Generation Exoskeleton Technology
The Next Step is Independence
Advances in assistive technology reflect the resilience and perseverance of both the users and the developers. We celebrate those achievements and dedicate our work to expanding the limits of what is possible. If independent mobility is the goal, and we believe it is, next generation robotic exoskeletons must be self-balancing, without need of crutches or an attendant.

“…to embrace my husband and children standing up! With their arms fully around me.”
“To relieve pressure on my rear end legs and back from
sitting all day. To regain eye to eye contact with my peers”
“I Would love to meet others standing face to face again.”
“It would be awesome to get up and move around whenever you wanted to and try to spend less time in a wheelchair.”
“To improve my quality of life by decreasing my dependence on others to help me get around, as I can not push myself in the wheelchair all day.”
“ …to fulfill all my necessary tasks, to feel freedom...to feel normal. To be happy”
“…To try doing the dishes, cook delicious meals for my family”

Our Endeavour to Make Those Dreams a Reality
Self-Balancing
An exo that enables the user to stand tall and proud, with no upper limb pain and hands free to hold a drink...or another's hand.
Natural Motion
The distinct human gait that provides optimum comfort, safety, and efficacy for rehab applications as well as home use.
Sleek Design
Power without bulk equals easier access. So critical is this feature that we have a fashion designer on the team to make it so.
360° Mobility
Life takes you in many directions; so should your exo. Stepping off a curb, going around corners, uphill or down, your will is its command.
Careers
Every member of our team is valued for their vital role in bringing our technology to life. A passion for robotics, the drive to continually improve, and dedication to the cause are what move us forward. Opportunities to join the team are posted below and on our LinkedIn page. Please revisit our website and/or follow us on LinkedIn for new job postings.
About the Role
As a senior embedded software engineer, you will collaborate with the "Software and Systems" team in the implementation of software development life cycle to follow IEC-62304 standard guidelines. You will provide dynamic support in performing updates to our currently developed exoskeleton prototype as well as our next-generation designs. Your tasks will include designing and implementing the exoskeleton’s embedded firmware and software, establishing and reviewing traces between risk items and process and product specifications (as a part of the software risk management process), designing and executing the test procedures and methods to verify the functionality of the designed embedded system, and performing the documentation and maintenance of software/firmware items functionality.
