Mechanical Engineering Intern, Brain Interfaces

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.

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

Our team also develops test infrastructure to accelerate hardware development and manufacturing, designs electronics packaging for our charger and implant electronics, and creates tooling to interface the implant with the surgical robot.

As a Mechanical Engineering Intern, you will support the design and production of hardware solutions for our brain-computer interface devices, including components for surgical robotics, automation, microfabrication, and more.

You will have the opportunity to contribute to projects at various stages from concept through production, applying your mechanical engineering knowledge in the challenging field of brain-computer interfaces.

Additionally, you will be expected to:

• Design, build, test, and validate systems for the implant and related hardware components
• Develop and improve manufacturing processes and equipment to support in-house production
• Scope, design and iterate custom tooling and fixturing required for the implant assembly line
• Work with Quality, Electrical Engineering, BCI Software, Microfabrication, and Surgery Engineering to define system requirements, verification and validation tests, and more
• Adhere to aggressive project schedules and ensure timely completion from inception to implementation
