Creating a generalized brain interface to restore autonomy to those with unmet medical needs today and unlock human potential tomorrow. Backed by Lightspeed, Sequoia and Founders Fund.
About the role
As a Mechanical Engineer on the Robot Hardware Team, you will design and scale complex mechanical assemblies. You will utilize creative design and out-of-the-box thinking while navigating requirements pertaining to extremely high precision, sterility, biocompatibility, manufacturability and more. You will work closely with Neurosurgeons, OR staff, manufacturing teams, suppliers, and other engineers to deliver a critical part of a system poised to change the lives of many.
What they're looking for
- Minimum of 3 years of mechanical engineering industry experience, including internships and project teams where you owned products from concept to production
- Strong understanding of engineering first principles
- Bachelor’s degree in science or engineering, or equivalent experience and ability
More about this role
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.
The Surgery & Robotics Hardware Team is looking for Mechanical Engineers who want to advance the future of healthcare solutions with technology. At Neuralink we recognize that increasing healthcare costs, lack of access, and insufficient numbers of neurosurgeons globally require new approaches to enable greater access to our devices. To address these challenges we design fully autonomous robotics systems, human assistive surgical tools, and design entire surgical suites in order to provide better experiences for our customers.
Our team works on our surgical robot system which aims to fully automate the implantation of the Neuralink implant. We design and integrate multi-axis robotic arms, perception systems including custom imaging hardware, optical coherence tomography tissue imaging, power electronics, and safety systems such as 3D spatial mapping/object avoidance sensors. Robotics is part of a larger system of tools we work on. For example, using...
