Company mission
To provide breakthrough treatments for the one billion patients worldwide suffering from neurological illnesses.
Role
Who you are
- 3-5 years of experience designing PCBs and electronic systems for medical devices or similar fields
- Experience bringing up new electronic systems in the lab, characterizing electrical performance, and debugging PCB systems
- Proficiency in PCB design tools (Altium) and software, simulation, etc
- Familiarity with DFM principles and best practices for high reliability applications
- Basic programming and scripting skills
- Excellent communication and collaboration skills
- Minimum BS in Electrical Engineering or other relevant discipline
What the job involves
- As a Precision employee, you will be collaborating with experts across a diverse array of fields–including neurosurgery, mechanical engineering, machine learning, and microfabrication–to push the boundaries of what is possible
- You will be joining a well capitalized and fast-moving company
- You will be working toward a deeply meaningful goal: restoring function to people living with devastating neurological conditions, including stroke, spinal cord injury, traumatic brain injury, and neurodegenerative disease such as ALS
- We are seeking an Electrical Engineer who will be responsible for electronics systems and Printed Circuit Board (PCB) design supporting Precision brain-computer interface (BCI) devices
- They will be involved in the full life-cycle of the design, from spec formation through testing and manufacturing
- Responsible for establishing specifications of electronics systems in the Precision device, including both custom ASICs and off-the-shelf components
- Independently map product requirements to electronics specifications
- Design electronics used in both clinical and manufacturing environments
- Coordination with test teams and test facilities (including ASICs and software)
- Collaborate cross functionally
Our take
Precision Neuroscience is finding new, practical ways of improving the lives of those who are suffering from neurological conditions.
The Layer 7 Cortical Interface is an implant that’s 1/5th the thickness of a human hair and can be fitted onto the human brain without damaging it. Through minimally invasive micro-slit surgery, the brain implant can process data and aims to move brain-computer interfaces (BCI) technology from small-scale research into a new era of worldwide usage.
The long-term goal of the Layer 7 Cortical Interface is to allow customers to interact with people and the world via digital means. Whilst the market is blooming with new companies exploring the possibilities of BCI technology, Precision has an advantage in that its solution requires minimal surgery and is reversible, meaning that it has wider implications than just neurological disorders.
Work is ongoing but with substantial funding behind it, Precision is using its investment to ramp up product development and FDA regulatory review as well as expanding its team.
