About us

When a five-year-old boy was blinded after a regular eye exam failed to spot a retinal detachment, his father made it his life’s work to help eye care professionals by revolutionising retinal imaging. Optos was founded by Douglas Anderson in with the goal to make a patient-friendly device to quickly capture the entire retina.

The experience of Douglas Anderson is a thread that runs through the company to this day and has resulted in our products being used in nearly 20, locations globally. Optomap® shows up to 82% (°) of the retina in a single-capture, offering unrivalled clarity and Optos is proud to be recognised as the leader in this field.

To stay at the forefront of technology and offer the very best solutions to our customers, we are at the beginning of an exciting journey that will expand our product offering, cement our position as the leaders in this field and see us expand our already fantastic team.

Over the last 12 months we have made great progress in developing a new generation of products that will use cutting-edge technologies to drive our mission to transform eye care and are now looking for 4 x Manufacturing Engineers to continue the momentum, bringing your experience and ideas with you.

You will also bring a strong understanding of manufacturing processes, including machining, assembly, welding, and surface treatment.

Life at Optos is fast-paced and everyone tends to chip in. We have an experienced team who are comfortable working across various disciplines and teams so you’ll be a good fit for us if you don’t want to ‘stay in your lane’
