Jobs at Neuralink
Neuralink, founded in 2016, is a neurotechnology firm headquartered in San Francisco that develops implantable brain‑computer interface devices. Their flagship product, the Neuralink Implant, integrates a flexible polymer electrode array with a miniature neural‑interface chip to record and stimulate neural activity. The company’s public demonstrations—such as a pig with a working implant and a monkey that can play video games using thought—position it at the forefront of BCI research and commercial deployment.
Neuralink hires across a spectrum of technical and non‑technical roles. Engineers—electrical, mechanical, firmware, and software—design and test the implant hardware and the surgical robots that deliver it. Neuroscientists and neuroengineers develop signal‑processing algorithms and conduct pre‑clinical trials. Product managers, regulatory specialists, and operations staff handle device certification, logistics, and manufacturing scale‑up. Candidates should expect technical interviews that test domain knowledge, problem‑solving speed, and the ability to prototype under tight timelines.
