What we do

At Myant, we are creating the world’s first expressive and continuous digital presence platform, enabled by integrating technology directly into clothing and augmented by other devices, wearables, and IOT. We see the evolution of society where every member gets to participate from anywhere and anytime through a whole-body experience, mostly in a passive or ambient manner to foster ubiquitous accessibility. Humans have a fundamental desire and need to be connected to our environment, family, community, and technology. This level of connection will create a paradigm shift in the way we deal with each other, especially from afar, allowing for more meaningful relationships, and more in-depth representation of ourselves.

The need for this type of connection is not new. There are many companies working on ways to connect humans in singularity with technology, however most of these technologies are based on devices that are often used in episodical ways hence, leading to poor adoption or reliability. In general, innovation and technology have delivered significant benefits for many members of society. However, there are those who are left behind, namely the very young, the marginalized, the old and the sick. The challenge of inclusion for those left behind requires us to move beyond device focused strategies, towards an interface that we use naturally, every day. We believe that textile is that primary interface, used in clothing, coverings, carpeting and more, we wear and are surrounded by textiles universally, always.

Such an interface could fuse data with other devices that we use periodically and data with other IoTs in the environment. People could then leverage their physical presence over their digital presence to communicate and share personal wellbeing. This could unlock healthcare that is proactive and preventative, social connectedness that is more profound, enable care distribution models to be seamless and on demand, better fitness insights, safer working environments and more.

The vision for SKIIN -our first consumer-facing brand- is to enhance human ability through connected clothing and textiles. Skiin is in beta-phase market launch and has been recently granted Health Canada medical device license and submitted to FDA for regulatory approval in the US market. The sensors and actuators embedded within our apparel create your Digital Identity, which will be consumed by those who matter to you - your family members, physicians, trainers, other IoT devices - without you consciously having to think about it. The line between the digital and physical world is becoming increasingly blurry and we believe textile is the next medium to bridge that gap.

We are a multi-disciplinary technology team solving big challenges at the intersection of electronics, deep tech., software, design, advanced manufacturing, and data science.

About Us:

At Myant, our mission is to help people Live Younger, Longer by transforming healthcare from episodic, reactive care to proactive, preventive health management. Through our pioneering connected textiles and continuous monitoring technology, we bridge the gap between individuals, their families, and healthcare providers, creating a world where quality healthcare is more accessible, personalized, and preventative. Powered by extensive, multidisciplinary R&D, Myant combines expertise in textile science and computing, biometrics, AI, and clinical research to develop technologies that seamlessly integrate into everyday life. Our innovation engine continuously expands the platform’s capabilities, addressing cardiovascular health, stress management, sleep optimization, and more. With global ambitions, Myant is building a worldwide presence, collaborating with healthcare systems, clinics, researchers, and partners to set a new standard in connected health. Our goal is not just to improve care, but to fundamentally redefine the relationship people have with their health, shifting the focus from sick care to lifelong wellness.

We are redefining remote patient monitoring through SKIIN, a cutting-edge wearable system that seamlessly integrates ECG and vital sign monitoring into textile-based garments. As part of Myant Inc., we are bringing the future of healthcare into everyday life through textile computing, enabling earlier detection, continuous care, and stronger patient-provider connections. With MDR and FDA certifications underway or achieved, SKIIN is entering a critical phase of scaling operations in both North America and Europe.

Role Overview:

We are seeking a Biomedical Scientist/Engineer with a passion for wearable medical technology to join our team. This role offers the opportunity to work on advanced wearables with applications in neuroengineering, neuromodulation, biofeedback systems, and other digital therapeutic applications. You will lead and contribute to the complete product development lifecycle, from initial concept, research, and prototyping through system integration, clinical studies, and product launch, collaborating closely with cross‑functional teams to navigate ISO 13485 quality management requirements and the full spectrum of medical device regulatory processes, ultimately bringing the next generation of smart clothing products to market.

Key Responsibilities:

Lead and execute the research, design, and systems‑level development of wearable systems with cross‑functional teams (mechanical, firmware, data science, software, textile, regulatory) to architect and deliver cohesive, fully integrated solutions.
Oversee and perform end-to-end prototyping, assembly, verification testing, data collection, and performance analysis of wearable biomedical systems, ensuring interoperability, reliability, and clinical readiness.
Apply systems engineering methods to support usability engineering activities and generate documentation aligned with ISO 13485 compliance and global medical device regulatory submissions.
Diagnose and resolve complex, cross‑disciplinary technical challenges across electronic, mechanical, and textile subsystems throughout the development lifecycle.
Produce high‑quality technical reports and systems documentation to support design history files, regulatory approvals, and effective knowledge transfer.

Qualifications:

Master’s or PhD in Biomedical Engineering, Neurosciences, Mechatronics, or a closely related field.
Proven experience in biosignal acquisition, recording, and advanced signal processing techniques, ideally applied to physiological signals such as EMG, EEG, ECG, or other wearable medical sensing modalities.
Demonstrated expertise in the design, development, and evaluation of neurostimulation and neuromodulation systems, including stimulation waveform design, electrode-tissue interface optimization, safety assurance, and clinical or research validation.
Strong background in biomedical systems engineering, with the ability to design and integrate multimodal sensing and stimulation platforms across hardware, firmware, and textile domains.
Proficiency in Python for data analysis, signal processing, and algorithm development (required), with additional experience in embedded or compiled languages (e.g., C/C++) considered an asset.
Hands-on experience with prototyping, testing, and troubleshooting systems, particularly in wearable or medical device form factors.
Familiarity with usability engineering (IEC 62366), quality management systems (ISO 13485), and medical device regulatory processes.
Exceptional analytical, problem-solving, and technical writing skills to produce documentation for both internal and regulatory use.

Why Join Myant?

Join a mission-driven company redefining proactive healthcare through textile computing and connected platforms.
Be part of a high-impact business unit focused on solving one of Canada’s most urgent health challenges—cardiometabolic disease.
