About the Job

Requirements

  • A bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or equivalent experience.
  • Strong electrical engineering and physics fundamentals, with demonstrated ability to apply them under real-world constraints such as noise, power, size, and non-ideal interfaces.
  • Proven ability to independently design, bring up, debug, and verify complex printed circuit board assemblies operating under tight power and size constraints, including mixed-signal circuits, sensitive sensor interfaces, and embedded compute.
  • Experience debugging systems where issues span multiple domains, including analog, digital, radio frequency, and power, and where root causes are not immediately obvious.
  • Deep familiarity with lab instrumentation, including oscilloscopes, power supplies, spectrum analyzers, and vector network analyzers, and the ability to extract meaningful insight from imperfect measurements.

Responsibilities

  • Use electrical engineering fundamentals and best system design practices to deliver high-performance, reliable, and manufacturable systems with extreme size constraints.
  • 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 research and development investigations and experiments to demonstrate the feasibility of new technology for the implant and 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.

Desired Qualifications

  • Experience shipping highly integrated, size- and power-constrained devices, such as wearables, implantables, or compact wireless systems.
  • Experience with wireless systems and radio-frequency design tradeoffs, including Bluetooth Low Energy, Wi-Fi, antenna design, and coexistence.
  • Experience supporting hardware through manufacturing at scale, including yield, test, and failure analysis.
  • Experience in safety-critical or regulated environments, where reliability and risk must be explicitly managed.
  • Familiarity with mechanical integration constraints, including computer-aided design tools, packaging, and stack-ups.
  • Experience with electromagnetic simulation and antenna validation, such as finite element method or finite-difference time-domain methods, or equivalent.

About the Company

Neuralink

Builds brain implants for computer control

Neuralink builds implanted brain interfaces for people with paralysis, translating neural activity into commands for computers and other devices. Its Telepathy system is designed to let users move a cursor or operate a robotic arm through intended movements, bypassing damaged pathways between the brain and muscles. The company develops the implant, surgical robot and decoding software together, with a rechargeable device that sends recorded signals wirelessly to its application. Its medical devices are investigational, and clinical studies assess their safety and usefulness before commercial approval. Founded in 2016 by a team including Elon Musk, Neuralink is based in Austin, Texas, United States.
