Construction Worker - Wellington Region

About Wellumio Wellumio is a venture-backed medical device company on a mission to create universal access to diagnostic imaging. Magnetic Resonance is the gold standard in medical imaging due to its exceptional soft-tissue contrast. However, its accessibility is limited by high costs and the need to transport patients to scanners. At Wellumio, we are driven by a simple yet transformative idea: instead of bringing patients to the scanner, we bring the scanner to the patients, wherever they are. By providing point-of-care imaging, Wellumio enables healthcare professionals to deliver earlier diagnoses, faster treatments, and better outcomes. Our second-generation scanner, Axana, is significantly lighter than conventional systems, enabling true portability in brain and neuroimaging applications. The company’s first target application is acute stroke, a leading cause of mortality and disability. Today, only a small percentage of patients receive treatment within the critical time window due to reliance on hospital-based imaging.
