Manufacturing Technician

We are creating devices that enable a bi-directional interface with the brain.

These devices allow us to restore movement to the paralyzed, restore sight to the blind, and revolutionize how humans interact with their digital world.

Implant technology and our ability to manufacture high-quality implants in volume at low cost are at the core of creating the future of brain-computer interfaces.

The Brain Interfaces Mechanical Engineering Team is responsible for the design, build, and testing of all mechanical systems in our implant and charger.

As a Manufacturing Technician, you will be responsible for manufacturing our implants and accessories.

The implanted device contains micron-scale electrode threads and an electronics assembly containing the battery, chips, and circuit boards.

You will be engaged with many day-to-day responsibilities, including flip-chip bonding, part cleaning and preparation, electronics potting, mounting implants to the surgical mechanisms, as well as component and assembly-level testing of the electronics.

Additional responsibilities include:

• Perform mechanical/electrical assembly of implant and charger components, subassemblies, and integration of final assemblies
• Build small implant subassemblies involving custom micron-scale electrode arrays and SoC with high precision
• Operate equipment, such as flip-chip bonders and laser welders
• Execute equipment maintenance and calibration
• Package final products for delivery
• Maintain parts inventory
• Run functional testing of built hardware, including setup, instrumentation, and test execution
• Ensure product quality and conformance to design requirements
• Keep a clean, organized, and thoroughly maintained workspace
