Software Engineer (Fresh Grad 2023)

Machine Shop     ·      Fremont, CA     ·      Full time

Software Engineers at Neuralink work on a variety of interdisciplinary teams. You will have the opportunity to partner with colleagues across the company to accelerate our pathway to mass market, consumer grade brain-computer interfaces. We are looking for driven software engineers who thrive in autonomous environments and love to solve hard problems.

Engineers will be in-person in either our Fremont or Austin locations! 

Types of software you could work on:

• Embedded software that interfaces directly with the brain
• Systems for manufacturing, analyzing, and testing the device
• Data platforms for a diverse set of data, ranging from neural signals to manufacturing
• Neurosurgical robot software
• Lab management system as the central collaboration hub for all teams within the company
• Software to decode and process neural signals in real time
• On-prem & Cloud Infrastructure that enables the company to operate safely, robustly and move at light-speed

Neuralink strives to be a meritocratic environment: we require honest and transparent communication to ensure the best ideas win out. We believe the best solutions emerge and the best teams are created when you assemble high-performing individuals with different backgrounds, skill sets and perspectives, and allow them to engage in rigorous and thoughtful inquiry. We want to work with exceptional people, and, to the extent that you excel, we want you to take on more responsibility and help all of us succeed. If this speaks to you, come join us.

In your application, please include examples of your technical accomplishments and why you want to work at Neuralink.

The interview process will be the same for all teams and individual preference for teams will be taken into consideration before the final interview.

About you:

• 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 designs, but in the end, you know that what matters is delivering a manufacturable solution that works every time.
• You are a cross-disciplinary team member. You are excited to work with and learn from software, mechanical, electrical, materials, biological engineers, and neuroscientists. You are comfortable communicating across teams.
• Resourceful, flexible and adaptable; no task is too big or too small.

Key qualifications: 

• You can design and implement effective software solutions.
• You are excited about technology, software, and understanding how systems work at fundamental levels.

What we offer:

• An opportunity to change the world and work with some of the smartest and the most talented experts from different fields. 
• Growth potential. We rapidly advance team members who have an outsized impact. 
• Excellent medical, dental, and vision insurance through a PPO plan; parental leave.
