Embedded Systems Jobs

Join the implant 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. 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. You will have the opportunity to work closely with chip designers, EEs, algorithms, and software engineers on a small team that moves quickly.

About you:

• You find large 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 what matters is delivering reliable manufacturable solutions.
• You are a cross-disciplinary team member. You are excited to work with and learn from chip designers to neuroscientists.

Key qualifications:

• 2+ years of experience with embedded systems.
• Proficient in C/C++, 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.

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.

What we offer:

• An opportunity to change the world and work with some of the smartest and the most talented experts from different fields.
• Growth potential. We rapidly advance team members who have an outsized impact.
• Excellent medical, dental, and vision insurance through a PPO plan; parental leave.
• Flexible time off + paid holidays.
• Equity + 401(k) plan.
• Commuter Benefits.
• Meals provided.
