Description For Software Engineer Intern, Implant

Neuralink is at the forefront of brain-computer interface technology, developing devices that create a direct connection between the human brain and digital devices. As a Software Engineer Intern on the Brain Interfaces Software Team, you'll be working on critical software systems that manage implant communication, verification, manufacturing, and monitoring.

The role offers a unique opportunity to work on groundbreaking technology that has the potential to help restore movement to the paralyzed and sight to the blind. You'll be part of a team responsible for the end-to-end software stack, developing client-side SDKs and full-stack platforms used across various divisions within Neuralink.

The position requires strong programming skills, particularly in Python and either C or Rust, along with Linux/Unix experience. You'll be working in a meritocratic environment that values honest communication and rigorous thinking. The team emphasizes practical solutions that make a real impact, focusing on production-ready systems rather than research-grade prototypes.

This internship offers hands-on experience with cutting-edge medical technology, working alongside exceptional engineers and scientists. You'll be based in Austin, Texas, with a competitive hourly rate of $31.50/hour. The role comes with comprehensive benefits including medical, dental, and vision insurance, commuter benefits, and provided meals.

Neuralink seeks candidates who are mission-driven, delivery-focused, and excited by large challenges. This is an opportunity to contribute to technology that could fundamentally change how humans interact with digital systems and help people with neurological conditions. The company values resourcefulness and adaptability, making it an ideal environment for those who want to make a meaningful impact in the field of neural engineering.
