About Neuralink:
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.
Team Description:
Join the Brain Interfaces Embedded Systems Team and be part of an elite team of engineers working on high-performance, safety-critical embedded systems for the next-generation brain-computer interfaces. You will have the opportunity to work closely with chip designers, EEs, algorithms, and software engineers on a small team that moves quickly.
Job Description & Responsibilities:
We are looking for experienced, hands-on engineers who are interested in exploring what's possible in highly powered and latency-constrained environments. Firmware is the kernel of operation for the implant and you have the chance to determine and implement features that have a massive impact on the product’s capabilities. As a Senior Embedded Software Engineer, you will be expected to:
- Own complex challenges from definition to solution
- Utilize your ability to work cross functionally to deliver safety critical systems while considering power, radio, and thermal requirements
- Take ownership of products and/or core features; from planning and design to execution and testing
- Build on your fundamental understanding of hardware while contributing to bare-metal firmware
- Embrace a fast-paced iterative environment that prioritizes shipping manufacturable solutions
Required Qualifications:
- 5+ years of experience with embedded systems
- Proficient in C/C++, and Python
- Knowledge of MCU architectures, peripherals, and development environments
- Comfortable reading electrical schematics and datasheets
- Deep knowledge of the embedded toolchains and workflow
- Strong EE & DSP fundamentals
- HW/SW debugging skills with lab equipment
- You find enormous challenges exciting and enjoy discovering and defining problems as much as solving them
- You deliver. You may enjoy thoughtful conversations about problems and perfecting design, but in the end, you know that delivering reliable manufacturable solutions matters
- You are a cross-disciplinary team member. You are excited to work with and learn from chip designers to neuroscientists
Preferred Qualifications:
- Experience with embedded stacks for ARM cores
- Experience with safety-critical systems
- Experience with FPGA development and testing
- Experience with RF, BLE, TCP/IP stacks from a practical embedded perspective
- Prior work or experience with applied cryptography and embedded systems security
