Additional Information
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:
To achieve Neuralink's mission and provide our technology to those that need it, the surgical process that implants our cutting-edge devices must be exceptionally safe, efficient, and scalable.
The surgical robot we design is key to enabling this, and the Robot Electrical Engineering Team supports this by designing, testing, and integrating all electrical aspects of our robot, encompassing a diverse range of fundamental electrical engineering domains while also working closely with the optical, mechanical, and software engineering teams.
Job Description and Responsibilities:
As an Electrical Engineering Intern you'll own meaningful projects and make substantial contributions as an integral member of our fast-moving team. You will be expected to design, verify, and oversee the transition to production of a variety of custom electronics systems while additionally supporting broader team efforts through debugging, manufacturing, testing, and more. Specific responsibilities and projects may include:
All phases of board design (part selection, schematic design, layout, and bring-up)
Custom motor drivers, from transistor selection to control loop design
Custom high-bandwidth, low-latency, camera hardware and firmware
Custom FPGA based Optical Coherence Tomography data acquisition systems
Testing hardware such as Hardware-In-The-Loop systems, validation boards, and life-cycle testing rigs
Case studies on future system architectures including new compute platforms, redesigned actuator layouts, and deep-brain imaging systems
Required Qualifications:
Demonstrable experience developing circuits or products that have been used by real customers. Student design team work and personal projects may apply
Circuit board design experience demonstrating advanced knowledge in at least one niche, for example high density (HDI), high speed digital, high power, radio frequency, atypical materials or constructions, etc.
Experience with sensors, power management, and signal/power integrity
Design experience with common communication protocols (SPI, UART, I2C, etc.)
Competent with common lab equipment (oscilloscopes, power supplies, etc.)
