Quality Control Engineer (M/F/X)

Quality Control Engineer

Robeauté is redefining the future of neurosurgery with self-propelled microrobots designed to navigate the human brain with unprecedented precision. Our technology makes it possible to reach deep brain regions that were previously inaccessible, without invasive surgery.

We’ve developed microrobots capable of travelling inside the brain to collect biopsies, deliver cancer drugs, and implant electrodes for neurological treatments.

Since our founding in 2017, we’ve filed 50+ patents and successfully tested our technology in living animals, with human clinical trials targeted for 2026/2027. We recently raised €27M in Series A funding from Plural, Cherry Ventures, Kindred Ventures, and Brainlab, fueling our next phase of growth.

Now, as we scale, we are looking for a Quality Control Engineer to ensure the safety, reliability, and compliance of our microrobotic systems through rigorous inspection, calibration, and documentation practices.
