Company Description:

We are creating the future of brain-computer interfaces: building devices now that have the potential to help people with paralysis regain mobility and independence and invent new technologies that could expand our abilities, our community, and our world.

Team Description & Job Responsibilities:

Join the implant embedded systems team and be part of an elite team of engineers working on high-performance, safety-critical devices for the next-generation brain-computer interfaces. We are looking for an experienced, hands-on electrical engineer for implant electronics board design, integration with our custom chips, testing, 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 engineers, and microfabrication experts for system integration.

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.

* Experience shipping devices through mass manufacturing.

* Extensive experience with all phases of PCB design (part selection, schematic, constraints, library management, board layout).

* 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:

* 5 years of experience.

* 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).

* Prior work or experience pushing hardware systems through FCC/FDA approval process.
