This summer, put your engineering experience towards building a product that changes the lives of children in Nepal!
Created in the Design for Extreme Affordability class at Stanford, the HandHero is an innovative splint that helps young Nepali burn survivors restore function in their hands after surgery. We are addressing the acute lack of access to physical therapy for poor, rural Nepali children who are at the highest risk for permanent disability due to serious burn injuries.
We are 4 graduate students from the schools of medicine and business seeking an engineer to join the team this summer to develop the HandHero from our current working prototype into a fully functional medical device, ready for field testing in Nepal by the end of the summer. You will be working with us at the Social Entrepreneurship Lab at the Stanford GSB.
Mechanical Engineers, Bioengineers, and Product Designers preferred, with experience building things and working in the Product Realization Lab. 20-40 hours per week commitment, mid June to mid August. Stipend available for full-timers (40 hrs/wk) with potential for travel. To apply, send your resume and a description of the coolest thing you’ve ever made to extremehandhero@gmail.com.
