About you

We are looking for a mechanical engineer or biomedical engineer (with a mechanical engineering focus) who is excited to develop technology at the forefront of medical devices and precision surgery. You will work directly with the co-founders to design, develop, and test our clinical prototype. This is a difficult hands-on engineering challenge that integrates precision mechanics, novel electronics, microfluidics, and ultrasound physics.

The ideal candidate is someone who is a 'maker' at heart, interested in working at a startup, and eager to challenge their technical development. This is a unique opportunity, as one of the first employees, you will have the opportunity to work across many areas of a hardtech biomedical startup, including helping to design preclinical studies and interfacing with clinicians. We are expecting you to be a core team member supporting the mechanical development, which at this stage requires design, hands-on development, and experimental oversight and execution.

Educational background

• BS or MS in mechanical or biomedical engineering or closely related fields (e.g. mechatronics, robotics).
• 1-3 years work experience preferred

Desired skills

• Entrepreneurial, self-motivated, and independent; desire to grow into a leadership role
• Basic experience with a range of fabrication approaches and their tradeoffs, with different materials (metal, polymers, ceramics, etc.)
• Experience with CAD tools (e.g., Solidworks, Fusion 360) and ability to design complex mechanical parts and assemblies
• Interest in biomedical research and conducting benchtop experiments that may include ex vivo tissue
• Ability to carefully execute experiments and analyze data
• Elementary data analysis experience with Matlab and/or Python
• General knowledge of medical imaging is a plus
