At Precision Neuroscience, we have assembled world-class experts, including several Founding Members of Neuralink, to change what it means to live with brain disease. Led by Benjamin Rapoport, a neurosurgeon and electrical engineer, the founding team has deep expertise in translational neuroscience, electrical engineering, microfabrication, and other aspects of brain-computer interface (BCI) systems. We are committed to using our expertise across disciplines to revolutionize the care of patients with neurological disorders.

The Role: In this senior leadership role, you will oversee the development of our initial product. Reporting to the CEO and CSO, and using your strong management and engineering skills, you will ensure that we meet deadlines, stay on budget, and progress the technology rapidly toward commercialization in our growing medical device company. You will use your organizational strengths to help drive strategic business and engineering initiatives.

What will you do? 

• Manage internal engineering R+D team on a day-to-day basis to ensure that milestones are being met, development timelines are on-track, and rigorous quality control is being enforced
• Oversee parallel development pathways for clinical development, regulatory and reimbursement, IP, and ultimately marketing and commercial planning
• Drive progress across domains of hardware, software, data collection and analysis, and verification and validation for regulatory compliance
• Facilitate cross-functional cooperation and serve as a primary point of contact for management regarding progress and goals
• Act as key point of contact with external consultants and contractors such as FDA regulatory consultants
• Assist with quality engineering, including system selection, documentation, and timeline management

Precision Neuroscience is a mission-driven company developing and commercializing brain-computer interfaces (BCI).
We are pursuing minimally invasive approaches to BCI to address major unmet clinical needs. We are well-capitalized and have an IP portfolio that has been built over a decade. We are focused on addressing previously intractable medical conditions such as refractory epilepsy, blindness, paralysis, cognitive impairment, and impulse-control disorders.

Who we are looking for?

• Must have a demonstrated history of managing engineering teams involved in design, prototyping, testing, regulation, and manufacturing
• 7+ years of active medical device project management
• Deep technical understanding of device design, validation, and verification
• Track record of delivering on accelerated timelines and budgets
• Experience in dealing with the FDA
• Excellent communication, planning, and organizational skills
• Strong sense of ownership and accountability
• Previous work in neuro-technology and/or electrical engineering is an advantage but not required.
