About the role

These devices allow us to restore movement to the paralyzed, restore sight to the blind, and revolutionize how humans interact with their digital world.
The Safety Team is the tactical extension of our engineers and scientists, embedding directly into high-stakes labs and facilities to eliminate hazards before they slow anyone down.
You will regularly split your time between the South San Francisco and Fremont facilities and be trusted to prioritize and advance programs at both.

This is a role for a highly motivated person who has deliberately chosen EHS as their career, or an experienced technical lead ready to own and manage multiple EHS programs across both sites.
You will continuously maintain facility permits and registrations to comply with local, state, and federal regulations while improving existing safety programs, training, processes, and operations.
Support regulatory compliance across both the South San Francisco and Fremont sites - maintaining facility permits, registrations, and reporting obligations with local, state, and federal agencies (e.g., CUPA, air district, RCRA, DTSC), and coordinate/lead inspections and audits
Manage the day-to-day hazardous waste lifecycle at both sites - identification, labeling, accumulation, storage, manifesting, and disposal
Track changing environmental and safety regulations across two sites and, with guidance and oversight from the EHS Lead, translate new requirements into site-specific programs and corrective actions
Collaborate with engineers and scientists to ensure their processes are safe, and review new and existing chemicals
At Neuralink, safety isn't a checkpoint, it's what lets us move fast without breaking the people who build the future.

3+ years of experience handling, storing, safekeeping, and removing hazardous materials (e.g., acids, bases, solvents)
Strong knowledge of local, state, and federal regulatory agencies and requirements (e.g., stormwater, hazardous waste, industrial wastewater, spill prevention, control, countermeasure (SPCC), and soil management)

EHS Certifications such as ASP: Associate Safety Professional, CSP: Certified Safety Professional, and CIH: Certified Industrial Hygienist
Bachelor's Degree in Environmental Engineering, Environmental Science, or Environmental-related discipline or equivalent industry experience
Previous experience preparing hazardous waste, stormwater, and wastewater discharge reports
Technical background knowledge of chemical interactions and handling
Knowledge of GMP (Good Manufacturing Practices) and GLP (Good Laboratory Practices)
Additional Requirements and Competencies:
Must be able to lift up to 50 lbs
Ability to stand and walk for 10+ hours daily

The anticipated base salary for this position is expected to be within the following range.
Your actual base pay will be determined by your job-related skills, experience, and relevant education or training.
As such, in addition to base salary, Neuralink offers equity compensation (in the form of Restricted Stock Units (RSU)) for all full-time employees.
$63,000 - $114,400 USD

We are creating devices that enable a bi-directional interface with the brain.
We are looking for a well-rounded, mechanically-inclined team member who takes ownership, works independently across sites, and enjoys unique projects that push them outside their comfort zone.
We own the programs that protect our people, visitors, and contractors, and we run them at the pace the mission demands.
We're looking for a high-speed, high-ownership individual who runs toward problems, thrives in ambiguity, and wants their work to directly enable Neuralink's mission of building a brain interface that restores autonomy and unlock human potential.
