What are the responsibilities and job description for the Test Engineer, Surgery Hardware position at Precision Neuroscience?
Description
Precision Neuroscience is pioneering a brain implant, known as a brain-computer interface (BCI), to restore communication and independence for people with neurological conditions. Our cutting-edge technology is designed to empower people with paralysis to control digital devices—such as computers and smartphones—with their thoughts alone, opening new possibilities for daily life.
Precision’s multidisciplinary team brings together leading experts in diverse fields such as neurosurgery, artificial intelligence, machine learning, microfabrication, electrical engineering, and more. We are committed to turning breakthrough scientific advancements into real-world solutions for people affected by conditions such as spinal cord injury, stroke, and ALS.
As a Precision employee, you will be joining one of the fastest moving and best-capitalized companies in the emerging field of BCI. Since our founding in 2021, Precision has secured over $155 million in funding, developed and validated our technology, and initiated human trials in collaboration with some of the nation’s top hospitals.
We are seeking a Test Engineer to join our Surgery Hardware team to support the bring-up of test systems for evaluating the efficacy of Precision hardware systems. This position will best suit a versatile and highly organized engineer with experience designing controlled experiments that implement custom hardware to test medical devices to their requirements and specifications.
This position is on-site at our Manhattan (Flatiron neighborhood) office. We are unable to consider remote workers or people not currently based in the United States, and who do not have working rights.
Key Responsibilities
- Execute on experimental design principles to design and build custom test fixtures and proxies to evaluate how Precision hardware systems perform against real world test conditions, and validate that they meet all specifications.
- Work closely with technical and quality departments to scope the objectives and requirements of new test systems.
- Complete hands-on assembly, testing, and empirical data collection tasks while ensuring rigorous quality control is being enforced.
- Perform careful analysis of empirical data collected from test systems to determine causal relationships and state causal conclusions.
- Meticulously document all testing inputs and parameters, procedures, results, and analysis.
- Collaborate with the rest of our team to publish and present our work.
- Create and update end-user technical documentation, product specifications and vendor procedures to ensure we are compliant with relevant regulations.
