“It’s not as if you’re saving lives.”

At Haermonics you will be. As a clinical stage medtech company developing innovative therapies to prevent post-operative cardiac surgery complications. What we do matters. What we do actually does save lives. Not a bad motivation to get going every morning.

In fact, every day 250 patients die from postoperative heart surgery complications caused by residual blood and clots in the pericardial cavity. Complications that we can help prevent. That’s why we’re looking to expand our teams with these positions:

Our innovation isn’t even on the market yet… and we’re already saving lives!

We’re happy to say that our PURE-AT-HEART recruitment campaign has raised €2500 for the Dutch Heart Foundation (Hartstichting) and its life-saving research!

And we’re looking forward to some super new Haermonics hires!
