Job description

Team Description:

The Convoy team, a specialized group within the Robot Mechanical Engineering team, is working on developing a first-of-its-kind brain-controlled assistive robotic arm (ARA). Our focus is on developing high-dimensional neural control of hardware, specifically robotic arms and hands. We design and integrate robotics systems, work directly with our clinical trial participants, and collaborate cross-functionally with hardware, software, electrical, and BCI engineers. We believe this work may be one of the best and most advanced paths to giving physical independence back to users with unmet medical needs.

Job Description and Responsibilities:

As a Mechanical & Robotics Engineer at Neuralink, you will design and produce hardware solutions for our assistive robotic arm. Your responsibilities may also include working on our brain-computer interface devices, surgical robotics, automation, microfabrication, and more. You will have the opportunity to own projects from concept to production, leveraging your mechanical engineering background in the challenging field of brain interfaces and human-robot interaction. Your responsibilities will include:

  • Designing and integrating robot mechanical and electrical components and assemblies with a heavy emphasis on usability and safety
  • Collaborating with clinical trial participants, neuroscientists, biologists, and engineers to establish design criteria
  • Rapidly and effectively building systems to meet project goals
  • Applying analytical methods, including calculations and simulations, for the design and optimization of structures and mechanical components
  • Actively driving every phase of device launch, from hands-on early feasibility prototyping through manufacturing release

Required Qualifications:

  • Bachelor's degree in one of the following disciplines or equivalent experience: Mechanical Engineering, Robotics, Mechatronics
  • Strong understanding of engineering first principles
  • Minimum of 3 years of mechanical engineering industry experience, including internships and project teams where you owned products from concept to production
  • Proficient in 3D CAD

Preferred Qualifications: 

  • Experience with robotic systems such as robot arms, grippers, actuators, human-robot interaction
  • Multidisciplinary experience in robotics software and control (e.g., Python, ROS, MATLAB, control theory)
  • Electrical engineering proficiency (e.g., PCB design, wire harnessing, circuit design)
  • Proficiency with conventional machining and rapid prototyping technologies
