Transducer Design Engineer
TLDR
Develop and optimize in-house ultrasound array design for non-invasive brain interfacing, enabling high-resolution stimulation and imaging.
About Nudge
At Nudge, our mission is to develop the best technology for interfacing with the brain to improve people's lives. We're starting with an approach that we believe can help the most people the fastest, and also allow us to learn as much about the brain as possible: developing a non-invasive, ultrasound-based device that can stimulate and image the brain at high resolution and depth. This is a vertically integrated effort building cutting-edge hardware, software, and research capabilities to create products that can benefit millions — and eventually billions — of people.
To succeed, we need to assemble world-class teams across everything we do. We hire people who are exceptional at their craft, believe hard things are worth doing, and execute relentlessly — people who expect the highest levels of both rigor and integrity from each other.
About the role
As a transducer design engineer at Nudge, you will:
Design materials and fabrication methods for in-house ultrasound array fabrication
Design high efficiency elements for transmission through the skull and high bandwidth elements for ultrasound imaging and cavitation detection
Develop methods for measurement of electrical, acoustic, and thermal properties of the elements
Work closely with electrical, mechanical, software, and ultrasound engineers
About you
We are looking for engineers with at least 3 years of industry experience. Regardless of career level, you should have:
Strong engineering / physics first principles
Experience with multiphysics acoustoelectric modeling
Strong fundamentals in materials science with respect to piezoelectrics
Strong electrical engineering fundamentals
A degree in Electrical Engineering or similar engineering discipline
A demonstrated history of exceptional technical contribution
High integrity and strong professional judgement
