Morphle (YC W20) Is Hiring

About Morphle

About Us

We make whole slide scanners i.e. digital pathology systems which scan microscopic samples and convert them to a digital scan that can be viewed on a screen. Once the scan is digitized, we also have semi-automated and automated diagnostic software for specific diseases that work on top of the digital images.

Why Join Us?

We started sales a year back and are already market leaders in digital pathology in India among big players like Phillips, Roche, and Leica. We are looking to expand internationally now with the first few international installations already under our belt!

Our founding team consists of IIT Alumni Computer Science engineers with experience in Computer Vision and Machine Learning. Our people have worked in Walmart, Rippling, IBM Research, Samsung, and more!

We have been funded by YCombinator (Batch W20). We are afunded by marquee angels and bio innovation grants in India.

We have managed to bring down the cost of digital pathology by a factor of 1/10th by completely re-engineering the digital pathology system.

Working at Morphle

We're looking for fantastic engineers who can work harder, faster, and smarter without sacrificing technical excellence. Our organizational challenges are unique and we are rapidly defining an enormous new industry. So you should be excited to build systems that can support the way that pathologists will diagnose in the future. We believe that generalists are better than specialists and we value people who are not afraid of getting their hands dirty.

Perks & benefits

• Free Food
• Beautiful Office
• Company Retreats
• Team Activities
• Health Insurance

About the role

It's a challenging job!

Fairly high bar for Algorithms. Experience with system design & operating systems is a plus.

We are a hard-tech startup building extremely fast medical imaging scanners with inbuilt AI. Much like a mix of MRI machines & self-driving cars.

Let us get on a call if you'd like to know more :)

We are a 25 people startup having built market-leading technology within our space over the last 3 years with high sales growth even during the pandemic.

Need someone who understands ownership and gets excited by extreme engineering.

Note: You don't need to have managerial skills. We need someone who can do the heavy lifting with a small number of very smart colleagues.

Technology

Engineering Team and Processes

Engineering projects at Morphle start with defining the Abstract Requirements and End Goals for the project to actually sketching out the timeline and the checkpoints needed to actually achieve the goals at the same time fulfilling all requirements. Engineers are encouraged to question each and everything and always seek answers to the WHY of any project which goes a long way in obtaining clarity on what to do and how to do it.

We have defined frameworks and thought processes by learning from our mistakes in the past and general good principles which serve as the guiding path for anything and everything we do at Morphle.

Technical Challenges

We are building complex and precise hardware using low-cost and cheap mechanical/electronic components using software-based feedback loops which model the inaccuracies in the system and account for the same. We also make diagnostics software for many applications in pathology for eg cancer diagnostics, blood diagnostics, and cytology.

Projects You Might Work On

You would get to work on adding features and improving the speed and quality of our digital pathology systems.

You would work on the viewing software for the scans and improving the UI/UX, adding features that will be used by the doctors diagnosing the scans.

You would get to work on building diagnostics software for some of the applications of Computer Vision and Machine Learning in pathology scans.
