MEMS Process Engineering Intern

We are an early‑stage neurotechnology company pushing the boundaries of brain‑computer interfaces through cutting‑edge MEMS (microelectromechanical systems) design and fabrication. We're a small, driven team working at the intersection of neuroscience and engineering — and we're looking for a hands‑on intern to grow with us. The Role We're looking for a detail‑oriented engineering intern to support our MEMS team in the prototyping and development of next‑generation neural devices. This is a hands‑on lab role where precision and care matter — you'll be working with microscale components that require a steady hand and a sharp eye. Location University of Southern California / Downtown Los Angeles, CA Type Part‑Time Internship (10‑20 hours/week) Compensation $35-45/hr What You'll Do Inspect and document microdevices using microscopy and other lab tools Perform electrical packaging tasks including soldering, cleaning, and component assembly Prepare and package devices for shipping Support general lab operations and organization Potentially assist with work in the USC cleanroom (training provided) What We're Looking For Required: Currently enrolled in or recently completed a degree in Biomedical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related field Comfortable using microscopes, tweezers, and fine tools Exceptional manual dexterity and attention to detail Meticulous, careful, and observant — you notice things others miss Highly Preferred: Hands‑on soldering experience A Plus: Any prior lab experience Cleanroom experience (a significant plus — but absolutely not required) No prior industry experience is necessary. We're happy to train the right person. Why Join Us Get real, hands‑on experience building frontier neurotechnology Work alongside a passionate early‑stage team Opportunity to contribute to meaningful, novel research Flexible part‑time schedule to accommodate coursework #J-18808-Ljbffr
