Job description
from Neuralink careersAbout Neuralink:
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.
Team Description:
As part of the Surgery & Robot Hardware Department, the Surgical Consumables Team is responsible for producing a wide range of critical mechanical devices that enable our life-changing surgical procedures. Balancing immediate needs with long-term scalability, we drive innovation with precisely engineered tools that ensure safety, reliability, and high-quality surgical execution.
Job Description and Responsibilities:
We’re looking for a Manufacturing Engineer to help scale the manufacturing of consumables used in our robotic surgeries. These consumables include the Needle Cartridge (the end effector that inserts electrodes into the cortex) as well as other complex mechanical assemblies and surgical proxies, like the one being assembled here.
In this role, you will help expand our team’s capabilities by supporting the build-out of a new manufacturing site in Texas while sustaining production at existing sites. You’ll work hands-on to troubleshoot manufacturing issues, analyze data, improve processes, and design fixtures. You will collaborate closely with hardware designers, machinists, quality engineers, and the surgery team to ensure parts are built correctly, released on time, and delivered where they’re needed.
