About Neuralink:

We are creating devices that enable a bi-directional interface with the brain. These devices allow us to restore movement to the paralyzed, restore sight to the blind, and revolutionize how humans interact with their digital world.

Team Description:

Join the implant team and be part of an elite team of engineers working on high-performance, safety-critical embedded systems for the next-generation brain-computer interfaces. We are looking for experienced, hands-on engineers who are interested in exploring what's possible in highly power and latency-constrained environments. We are looking for an experienced, hands-on electrical engineer for implant electronics board design, integration with our custom chips, design verification, manufacturing, and quality control. You will own advanced projects, not only working on incremental changes, and be an integral member of a small, fast-moving team. You will be working on all phases of board design (part selection, schematic design, layout, and bring-up) as well as work closely with chip designers, firmware engineers, mechanical and manufacturing engineers, and microfabrication experts for system integration.

Job Responsibilities:

Utilize electrical engineering fundamentals and best system design practices to deliver high-performant, reliable, and manufacturable extremely size-constraint systems
Contribute to all phases of system and board design, from system definition to part selection, schematic design, layout, bring up, and design verification
Help conduct R&D investigations and experiments to demonstrate feasibility of new technology for the implant and the charger
Work cross functionally to ensure successful systems integration
Contribute to system improvements that decrease latency and increase battery life, reliability, and safety
Design and deploy systems for implant-charger hardware in the loop testing, and manufacturing line quality control

Note: The team is hiring electrical engineers at all levels, both junior and senior. What matters most is evidence of exceptional abilities and a drive to succeed.

Required Qualifications:

Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering or equivalent experience
Strong EE fundamentals
Minimum of 2 years of experience designing PCBs for low power and size constrained applications, including internships
Fluency with PCB CAD tools (Altium, Eagle, KiCad, Allegro)
Experience with sensors, power management, and signal/power integrity
Experience with wireless systems (BLE, WIFI, Zigbee)
Experience building and bringing-up MCUs or FPGA
Comfortable with common communication protocols (SPI, UART, I2C, etc.)
Comfortable with lab equipment (oscilloscope, VNA, etc.)
Basic C and Python programming skills

Preferred Qualifications:

Experience with firmware development for embedded systems (C/C++)
Proficiency with ME CAD tools (Solidworks, AutoCAD)
Experience with FEM/FDTD simulation tools and antenna designs/testing
Experience with analog circuit design
Experience in the design and testing of wearable electronic devices (watches, fitness trackers, wireless headphones, etc.)

Expected Compensation:

The anticipated base salary for this position is expected to be within the following range. Your actual base pay will be determined by your job-related skills, experience, and relevant education or training. We also believe in aligning our employees’ success with the company's long-term growth. As such, in addition to base salary, Neuralink offers equity compensation (in the form of Restricted Stock Units (RSU)) for all full-time employees.
