Software Engineer, BCI Applications

Neuralink is at the forefront of brain-computer interface technology, developing revolutionary devices that enable direct communication between the human brain and computers. As a Software Engineer in the BCI Applications team, you'll be working on groundbreaking technology that has the potential to transform lives by helping paralyzed individuals control computers and robotic devices with their thoughts.

The role offers a unique opportunity to work directly with clinical trial participants, allowing you to see the immediate impact of your work on real users. You'll be part of a multidisciplinary team comprising software engineers, design engineers, ML engineers, and neuro-engineers, all working together to push the boundaries of what's possible in brain-computer interfaces.

Your responsibilities will include developing and testing software systems, creating innovative applications, and writing algorithms to decode brain activity. You'll be involved in designing novel user interfaces that are controlled directly by thought, working closely with study participants to refine and improve the software based on their feedback. The position requires strong technical skills in both frontend (React, Swift) and backend (Python, C, C++) development, along with excellent problem-solving abilities and communication skills.

The compensation package is competitive, ranging from $138,000 to $269,000 USD, and includes comprehensive benefits such as medical, dental, and vision insurance, equity, 401(k), parental leave, and flexible time off. The position is based in Fremont, California, and requires on-site work, offering the opportunity to collaborate closely with world-class experts in a cutting-edge facility.

This is an ideal role for someone who wants to make a meaningful impact on human health and technology while working with some of the smartest minds in the field. Whether you're helping restore movement to the paralyzed or revolutionizing how humans interact with computers, your work will be at the intersection of software engineering and neuroscience, contributing to technology that could fundamentally change how humans interface with the digital world.
