Job description

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:
The Brain Interfaces Mechanical Engineering team is responsible for the mechanical and manufacturing systems related to our implant, microfabricated thin-film electrodes, wireless charger, and associated accessories. This includes product design, electronics packaging integration, manufacturing line and facility design, test infrastructure design, and related activities for these core products.
Job Description and Responsibilities:
As a Mechanical Engineer at Neuralink, you will own the design and production of hardware solutions for our brain-computer interface devices. Projects will be highly varied, leveraging both breadth and depth of first principles in mechanical engineering, manufacturing engineering, and test engineering. You will collaborate closely with other engineers (e.g., electrical engineers, chip designers, software engineers, robotics engineers) as well as neuroscientists, neurosurgeons, clinicians, animal care specialists, and other industry experts. You may own a major product from early concept to production, while also diving deep into smaller but essential manufacturing problems to unblock production. Responsibilities will include:
  • Exploring early device architectures and downselecting to drive design and company direction
  • Scoping projects and requirements, large and small, to hit aggressive project schedules and ensure timely completion from inception to implementation
  • Performing market research and gathering feedback from our users (e.g., patients, surgeons, animal care team) to inform product direction
  • Detailed designing of 3D CAD and 2D drawings with a heavy focus on DFX, and integration onto the manufacturing line
  • Rapid prototyping with existing technologies, and developing or sourcing expanded capabilities
  • Identifying key vendors and developing/maintaining relationships to expand our capabilities
  • Developing, maintaining, and executing test plans and electro-mechanical test systems for verification and validation of products ranging from components to sub-assemblies, full consumer electronics products, or production environments
  • Identifying and tackling manufacturing rate limiters and yield hitters
  • Working with data acquisition systems and control systems to continually improve in-test and in-process data recording and system useability
  • Providing insight into the design of tooling and equipment from development to full-volume production including poka-yoke, controls, and standardization of componentry
  • Developing requirements for, sourcing, and pitching major equipment purchases to expand manufacturing and test capabilities; becoming the subject matter expert for this equipment and training other engineers and technicians
  • Developing knowledge of and implementing compliance with relevant federal regulations (e.g., GxP, 21 CFR) as they pertain to medical device design and manufacturing
  • Writing and maintaining design and manufacturing documentation for internal reference and submission to regulatory bodies

Required Qualifications:
  • Bachelor's Degree in Mechanical Engineering or related field, or equivalent experience and ability
  • 5+ years of mechanical engineering industry experience, owning products from concept to production
  • Strong grasp of engineering's first principles
  • Experience with DFX, conventional machining, rapid prototyping technologies, and precision design + manufacturing
  • Proficiency in CAD (SolidWorks preferred)

Preferred Qualifications:
  • Experience in the design and manufacturing of implantable electromechanical medical devices
  • Knowledge of ISO 13485, ISO 10993, 21 CFR, and related standards
  • Experience scaling complex low to mid-volume production lines

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.
