Shape the Face of Cancer Treatment at Luminate Medical

Luminate Medical is Ireland’s most exciting and fastest-growing MedTech company. Emerging from NUI Galway’s BioInnovate programme, Luminate Medical was founded in 2018, and in 2019, was recognised as one of the most valuable growth stage companies in Europe. Since then, the company has been backed by billionaire Peter Thiel, Y Combinator (the US accelerator behind Dropbox, AirBnB and Stripe) and Enterprise Ireland’s Disruptive Technology Innovation Fund. Luminate has just raised $5 million in grant financing and a seed round investment, from investors including Elkstone Capital, SciFounders, and Faber VC. We are aiming to launch its first product into the US market in 2024.

​

Our vision is to build innovative new products which revolutionise the patient experience of cancer treatment. Our first product is a wearable medical device to prevent hair loss caused by cancer chemotherapy in a portable, comfortable, and effective way. Chemotherapy induced hair loss is a rapidly growing €8 billion global market with multiple established public companies in the industry. We’re seeking to recruit talented individuals with the ambition to drive the development of a new and innovative approach and join the team at our Galway office.

Luminate Medical is an equal opportunities employer. We celebrate diversity and consider all applicants without regard to race, colour, religion, national origin, age, sex, marital status, ancestry, physical or mental disability, veteran status, gender identity, sexual orientation, or any other legally protected characteristic.
