About the role

FL119 is seeking a creative and deeply technical Neuromorphic Systems Architect to join our team.
Leveling is flexible based on experience.
This role will focus on translating nonlinear neural dynamics into next-generation computational architectures.

You will work at the interface of neuroscience, dynamical systems theory, and hardware engineering to design and prototype electronic architectures that embody biologically derived principles of computation.
Lead feasibility studies, simulations, and early-stage prototyping efforts.

PhD (or equivalent experience) in Electrical Engineering, Applied Physics, Computational Neuroscience, Computer Engineering, or a closely related field.
Deep expertise in nonlinear dynamical systems and their application to computation.
Experience designing hardware architectures (ASIC, FPGA, analog/mixed-signal, or emerging device technologies such as RRAM, PCM, memristors, etc.).
5+ years of relevant research or industry experience (level dependent)
Strong mathematical foundation in dynamical systems, control theory, or computational modeling.
Demonstrated ability to move from theory to implementable system design.

Prior work in neuromorphic computing or spiking neural network hardware.
Experience with event-driven or asynchronous architectures.
Familiarity with reservoir computing, recurrent dynamical systems, or physical computing substrates.
Experience working in early-stage, fast-paced R&D environments.
Track record of patents or high-impact publications in neuromorphic systems or unconventional computing.
Preferred Experience:

FL119 currently offers healthcare coverage, annual incentive program, retirement benefits and a broad range of other benefits.

Collaborate with neuroscience, signal processing, and machine learning teams to ensure tight coupling between biological insight and architectural design.
Help shape the long-term compute vision of the company.
Flagship Pioneering invents and builds platform companies, each with the potential for multiple products that transform human health, sustainability and beyond.
vaccinating billions of people against COVID-19, curing intractable diseases, improving human health, preempting illness, and feeding the world by improving the resiliency and sustainability of agriculture.

to build a future where naturalistic, robust intelligence can emerge and operate sustainably at scale.
FL119 is backed by Flagship Pioneering, which brings the courage, long-term vision, and resources needed to realize unreasonable results.
At FL119, we are uniquely cross-functional and collaborative.
Our teams thrive in unstructured and creative environments.
All voices are heard because we know that experience comes in many forms, skills are transferable, and passion goes a long way.
