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.
The machine shop is responsible for supporting the entire company from machining high-precision robot prototype parts, to small batch runs for the Implant team, and also providing design and fabrication support for animal care teams. The Machine Shop team operates with a great sense of urgency. The team enables engineers to iterate quickly as we strive to create the world’s best and most manufacturable Brain Computer Interface. Our goal of enabling people with paralysis to directly use their neural activity to operate computers and mobile devices with speed and ease is within reach.
Join our Machine Shop team as a Prototype Build Technician, where you’ll play a crucial role in bringing innovative designs to life. We’re seeking a mechanically-inclined individual who thrives on problem-solving and is passionate about fabrication methods. You are knowledgeable of each stage of the prototyping process, from conceptualization to manufacturing, ensuring the feasibility and efficiency of our designs. The Machine Shop team is seeking someone who can also manage development/prototyping spaces. The ideal candidate will be responsible for organizing and maintaining development/prototyping spaces, particularly fasteners and 3D printing consumables, and ensuring they are all in a tidy and optimal working condition.
