Manufacturing Engineering Technician

About NeuroBionics NeuroBionics, an MIT neurotechnology spinout, is developing novel implantable devices that interface seamlessly with the human body to treat neurological conditions. Leveraging over a decade of innovation, we have engineered a novel neural interface using microscale, flexible, bioelectronic fibers that can be delivered into the body through minimally invasive endovascular approaches. By making neural interfacing a minimally invasive procedure, we aim to revolutionize deep brain stimulation and broaden access to life‑changing neuromodulation therapies to millions of patients. About The Role NeuroBionics is hiring a Manufacturing Engineering Technician to be a hands‑on builder who also contributes to designing and manufacturing fixtures and tooling. You can partner on or own transitioning R&D processes to manufacturing. You'll independently execute assembly, inspection, and test execution during our build pushes, design and build jigs, fixtures, and test rigs that make manufacturing high quality and repeatable, and flex into R&D build support and prototyping when manufacturing demand eases. You'll bring an engineering technician's eye—reading drawings, understanding tolerances, and proposing bench‑level improvements—and a flexible mind to a fast‑moving med‑device startup. This is a hands‑on role for someone who takes pride in disciplined execution, likes building the tooling as much as the product, and stays valuable across the full manufacturing cycle. What you’ll do: Duties and responsibilities Build medical devices: Use a high level of hand skill to build Class II & III medical device assemblies and polymer fiber extrusions that will be sterilized and used surgically. Take ownership of timely execution. QMS: Quality first mindset that focuses on building with high accuracy and precision while staying within the confines of a regulated quality environment—following WOs, WIs, maintenance schedules, non‑conformance procedures, etc. Design & build tooling: Create jigs, fixtures, and test rigs; do light CAD; stabilize fragile setups for repeatability and high yield. Inspection: Perform incoming/in‑process/final inspection per defined methods; document clearly; flag defects early. Execute tests + reliability: Run functional and reliability protocols; maintain the setups you build; capture data rigorously to characterize processes and define best practice; elevate failures with evidence. Support R&D: When manufacturing eases, build prototypes, devices, and fixtures so the R&D team can iterate. Drive improvement: Identify yield issues, rework, process variation, and time‑wasting steps. Bring improvement proposals to Quality + Engineering and support implementation. Qualifications Required Associate degree in a technical/engineering field, or equivalent hands‑on experience. ~2–5 years as a manufacturing/assembly technician in Class II or III medical devices or similarly controlled hardware production in another industry (e.g., aerospace). Strong hands‑on assembly and fabrication skills; comfortable with precise work and small parts. Experience executing inspection and test procedures, recording results, and maintaining traceability. Demonstrated fixture/jig design and building experience. cGMP experience—e.g., adhering to WOs & WIs, understanding non‑conforming material procedures, lot traceability, and inspection processes. Comfortable working as part of a team or as an individual contributor. Must be capable of working on a manufacturing floor, which frequently requires standing for long periods, bending, lifting up to 50 lbs. Preferred Light CAD and tooling design; simple fixture/automation upkeep. Experience manufacturing catheters, endoscopes or implantable medical devices. Microscope skills—hand building and inspection. Vision inspection system experience. Experience with NPIs, building prototypes and testing equipment. Experience running reliability or verification tests (environmental/aging/soak, mechanical, electrical). Experience in controlled environments (cleanroom, contamination control). Lean Manufacturing or 6 Sigma training. What we offer Mission‑driven, collaborative team solving a high‑impact problem. Competitive and experience‑guided compensation with strong equity package. 3 weeks flexible PTO + 1.5 week company shutdown. Comprehensive benefits plan including Health, dental and vision insurance covered at 100% Health Reimbursement Account (HRA) 401(k) with company match Parental & Medical Leave Life and Long‑term Disability insurance Health & wellness benefit Opportunity to learn and work for a fast‑growing, VC‑backed, MIT‑spinoff on one of the most impactful problems that can change lives.
