Join the team building
tissue intelligence.
As a team, we work closely across disciplines and see the impact of our contributions. Every role helps bring Elora® into operating theatres, and we share a strong sense of possibility about what comes next.

THE PEOPLE
Built by a small team who show up for the patient, and each other.
Ten years on, the people solving today's problem are still the ones asking what's next. Different backgrounds, one meeting point: medicine, science and engineering.


LIFE AT ZIVA
Hands-on science, in a
team that's got your back.
Most days mean working shoulder to shoulder with clinicians, engineers and scientists who all care about the same thing: getting cancer surgery right, first time. The pace is quick, the roles are broad and the work is hands-on, which makes it highly rewarding.
