About Neuron Industries

Cortex AIC is the AI-native industrial controller that works in place of the PLC. Describe control logic in plain English, deploy deterministic real-time Python, and get the IDE, HMI, historian, and data streaming built in. Zero runtime licenses. Backed by Y Combinator.

About the role

You’ll design and debug the boards inside Cortex, working across embedded compute, industrial I/O, and power. You’ll own board-level work from schematic through working prototypes, validation, and manufacturing handoff, with experienced guidance on architecture and critical design decisions. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

What they're looking for

  • Design schematics, select components, and develop PCB layouts in Altium Designer
  • Bring up prototypes using test code and bench measurements to isolate failures
  • Integrate power, digital and analog interfaces, and communications alongside firmware and software engineers
  • Test functionality, electrical margins, and failure modes in industrial environments
  • Prepare clear schematics, BOMs, test results, and release documentation for manufacturing
  • Improve designs using design reviews, prototype results, and production feedback
More about this role

America deserves abundance.

Neuron Industries is rebuilding industrial automation from the hardware up. We’re building Cortex AIC, an AI-native industrial controller, and Synapse, the development environment engineers use to program, test, deploy, and debug it.

We build the hardware and software together. Our work makes industrial systems easier to develop and dependable on the factory floor.

Come help us build the next generation of American manufacturing.
