About the Affera Mapping and Ablation System 

The Affera Mapping and Ablation System is an innovative medical technology designed to treat patients with cardiac arrhythmias. The system involves advanced mapping techniques to create detailed images of the heart's electrical activity, helping physicians identify abnormal areas causing arrhythmias. Once identified, the Affera Ablation System delivers targeted energy to disrupt these abnormal signals, restoring normal heart rhythm. You will be working on cutting-edge technology in the electrophysiology field. This role offers a rare chance to be at the forefront of developing groundbreaking technology that can disrupt the industry.
