Lead Software Engineer @DermaScan

À propos

We are DermaScan

At DermaScan, we tackle one of today’s most pressing health challenges: skin cancer. Over the last 30 years, the number of skin cancer cases has multiplied by five, while the number of dermatologists in France has dropped by 20%.

Professionals in the sector, patients, and authorities are sounding the alarm!

Thanks to an innovative patient journey and the spectacular advancements offered in the fields of hardware and Artificial Intelligence, DermaScan intends to provide a sustainable solution to this problem by creating physical centers dedicated to skin cancer screening.

At DermaScan, we envision a world where skin cancer is always caught early, giving everyone the best chance for effective treatment.

Founded in September 2024 by Florian Legris (CEO) and Hadrien Lepage (CTO), both repeat entrepreneurs, DermaScan is built to make a lasting impact on public health.

By joining us, you’ll play a key role in redefining skin cancer prevention and shaping the future of healthcare.
