We seek volunteers that are prepared to provide the necessary expertise for this life saving work for the duration of the emergency. For clarity, this means work without pay. However, there will be formal acknowledgements and expressions of gratitude in a variety of formats.

We are relatively close to having a functionally MK2 that can be used to raise funds and justify supply chains and plans for assembly. In a final sprint to create a deployable Ventilator, we are looking for somebody who could spend as many work hours as possible in the coming weeks. We need another C++ Developer who could imagine to dig deeper into the code, contribute to the overall structure and run tests and bug trials.

Minimal requirements:

  • 3 years of full-time C++ experience
  • strong experience with object-orientated programming
  • Clear and clean coding style
  • Standard version control and workflow habits
  • Stable experience with debugging and testing
  • 25h per week time availability
Additional optimal requirements:
  • Experience with microcontroller
  • 5+ years C++ experience
  • Rough understanding or ability to learn about ventilator mechanics
  • 40h per week time availability

Whats in it for you?

Mission Statement

Our mission is to maximize the efficiency and effectiveness of the world's medical workforce fighting COVID-19

Description

Every Year 4.2 million children under 5 are desperate for oxygen. 800,000 mothers lose their child every year because of Pneumonia, a lung disease often requiring oxygen. This toll is higher than for any other disease in the world. What hospitals in the US and Europe consider one of the most essential treatments is not available for many. The problem, oxygen concentrators keep breaking down in the high humidity, temperature and dust environments, burn through during energy spikes when the power comes back online after one of the many outages or simply breaks and nobody knows how to repair it.

We have set out to change this and develop an oxygen concentrator that will make public health investments much more effective. Our first calculations suggest that we could lower the cost of a child's life by as much as two-thirds. Due to our organization working with volunteers we can reduce the development cost but bringing a medical device to market is hard work and we expect that you meet the requirements and are responsive and transparent with your skills and availability. If our mission sounds important and exciting to you, learn more about us on www.ardenmed.com and apply for one of our open positions through our platform! http://jira.ardenmed.com/plugins/servlet/loginfreeRedirMain?portalid=16&request=136
