Software Engineer, Implant Manufacturing

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 Software Team and be part of a team of remarkable and driven engineers accelerating our pathway to human ready brain-computer interfaces. We are a small, but fast-moving team that collaborates with other exceptional teams of mechanical, electrical, and firmware engineers.

Job Description & Responsibilities

• Develop and improve Neuralink’s implant manufacturing line acceptance software and station
• Develop and improve Neuralink's implant design verification testing software
• Optimize and maintain Neuralink’s implant software build infrastructure
• Develop and improve Neuralink’s implant SDK

Required Qualifications

• Fluent in Python and at least one system language including Rust, C++, and C (don’t get hung up on this—being an exceptional software engineer matters above all)
• Experience and proficiency with Linux/Unix systems
• Evidence of exceptional ability in engineering, mathematics, or computer science
• Solid understanding of engineering first principles
• Strong intuition for what matters in a production system vs. research-grade environments

Additional Requirements and Competencies

• 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 solutions
• You are mission-driven and goal-oriented in your approach to solving problems
• You feel a sense of urgency to get things done sooner rather than later—because there is so much we, as people, can contribute to the world and accomplish in this life, it’s a shame to waste time
• You are resourceful, flexible, and adaptable; no task is too big or too small

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.
