About Illuminant Surgical

Illuminant Surgical is building a new way of seeing inside the human body.

Our breakthrough platform, Skylight™, is the first real-time anatomical projection system, displaying images directly on the patient to give doctors an x-ray vision view for safer surgeries.

Illuminant Surgical was founded by two Stanford alumni with backgrounds in medicine and engineering. We’re a team of engineers, clinicians, and commercialization experts united in using our skills to make an impact on patients during the most challenging times in their lives.

We’re backed by venture capital, the National Science Foundation, and the National Institutes of Health. Come help us solve tough problems at the intersection of software, hardware, and clinical practice in a beautiful office in sunny Los Angeles, CA next to the world’s leading hospitals and care centers.

We hire people who take their work seriously and treat each other kindly.

You’ll be joining a team where you will make a real difference. You’ll solve problems that have likely never been solved while working alongside talented, supportive teammates who challenge and inspire you. We push the limits of innovation, but we do it with humility, humor, and a shared commitment to each other’s success. We offer comprehensive healthcare benefits, 401(k), and generous equity packages.
