Vital Bio Tech Stack
Point-of-care diagnostics platform with embedded hardware and lab automation
Vital Bio is building point-of-care diagnostic devices backed by embedded systems (ARM Cortex-M, Embedded Linux, Yocto) and cloud infrastructure (AWS, GCP, Kubernetes). The company is mid-scale—51–200 employees, founded in 2019—with an engineering-heavy hiring focus (10 open roles) balanced against manufacturing (3) and science (2), reflecting the dual complexity of shipping hardware while scaling production. Active projects span POC instrument development, immunoassay automation, and design-for-manufacturing milestones, while pain points cluster around supply-chain dependencies, regulatory compliance, and production scaling—typical friction for hardware companies transitioning from prototype to manufacturing.
