Neuralink Embedded Software Engineer at Neuralink designing and verifying size-constrained electrical systems for brain-computer interfaces. Responsible for system design, R&D, and cross-functional integration.
Responsibilities
Utilize electrical engineering fundamentals to deliver high-performance, reliable, manufacturable systems
Contribute to all phases of system and board design including part selection, schematic design, layout, bring up, and verification
Conduct R&D investigations and experiments to demonstrate new technology feasibility
Work cross-functionally to ensure successful systems integration
Contribute to system improvements decreasing latency and increasing battery life, reliability, and safety
Design and deploy systems for implant-charger hardware in the loop testing and manufacturing quality control
Qualification
Proven ability to independently designExperience shipping highly integratedExpected Compensation
Required
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 (noise, power, size, non-ideal interfaces)
Proven ability to independently design, bring up, debug, and verify complex PCBAs 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 (analog, digital, RF, power) and root causes are not immediately obvious
Deep familiarity with lab instrumentation (oscilloscopes, power supplies, spectrum analyzers, VNAs) and the ability to extract meaningful insight from imperfect measurements
Experience with wireless systems and RF design tradeoffs (BLE, Wi-Fi, antenna design, 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 (CAD tools, packaging, stack-ups)
Experience with electromagnetic simulation and antenna validation (FEM/FDTD or equivalent)
Expected Compensation:
The anticipated base salary for this position is expected to be within the following range. Your actual base pay will be determined by your job-related skills, experience, and relevant education or training. We also believe in aligning our employees’ success with the company's long-term growth. As such, in addition to base salary, Neuralink offers equity compensation (in the form of Restricted Stock Units (RSU)) for all full-time employees.
