iota Biosciences, Inc., a Berkeley-based medical device start-up developing novel bioelectronic diagnostics and therapies, is looking to hire a highly motivated engineer to design and test algorithms to enable a cutting-edge wireless power and communication system.

Responsibilities:

• Apply skills in signal processing and embedded software to develop and implement powerful yet efficient ultrasound transmit and receive algorithms.
• Test your algorithms in both simulation and in the field, whether that be in a simple ultrasound tank, a “phantom”, or something more complex. Will require leaving the clean environment of programming and involve “getting your hands dirty”.
• Develop and iterate on algorithms using real system data using custom ultrasound hardware.
• Work with other engineers to define algorithm specifications and design new algorithms.

Minimum Qualifications:

• Education: MS in computer science, electrical engineering, or related technical field.
• Expertise in signal processing algorithms commonly used in communication systems (filtering, down-conversion, envelope extraction, etc.)
• Experience in applying signal processing algorithms to sensor data (denoising, feature extraction, etc.).
• 2+ years experience programming in C on an embedded target. For example, implementing algorithms with fixed-point arithmetic, optimizing signal processing data structures for a memory-limited environment.
• Motivated, independent, efficient and able to handle several projects
• Interested in working in a small team environment

Preferred Qualifications:

• Knowledge of energy harvesting communication devices, like RFID
• Experience working with ultrasound systems is a plus.
• Experience with oscilloscopes, FPGAs, microcontrollers and signal generators.
• Prior experience working with other engineers of different disciplines as well as product manages and designers.
