About the role

  • About the company We're a team of engineers, neuroscientists, and designers solving the most difficult and meaningful challenge: understanding the human brain.
  • Our translational brain computer interface and pioneering models decode emotion, putting experience and wellbeing at the center of every interaction.
  • Our wearable BCI achieves fMRI-comparable resolution untethered to the lab.

Responsibilities

  • Collaborate closely with neuroscience, hardware, and software teams to co-design end-to-end systems
  • Explore new model architectures and perform detailed experimentation and analysis
  • Learn neuroimaging and neuroscience context (we will support you in getting up to speed)

Requirements

  • 3+ years of applied ML research or development experience, or equivalent depth through publications, projects, or startup work
  • Strong Python programming skills with experience in PyTorch, TensorFlow, or JAX
  • Experience with data preprocessing, labeling, and exploratory analysis
  • Proven ability to thrive in small, fast-moving teams
  • Experience with biomedical, neuroimaging, or other high-dimensional sensor data
  • Experience with distributed or large-scale training (e.g., mixed precision, very large datasets)
  • Knowledge of semi-supervised or self-supervised approaches

Benefits

  • Critically evaluate and implement the best machine learning approaches for our unique design problems in neural data
