Senior Mechanical Engineer

Senior Mechanical EngineerPrecision Neuroscience is building a next-generation brain–computer interface (BCI) to heal and empower millions of people living with neurological conditions. Our team brings together experts in neurosurgery, AI and machine learning, microfabrication, electrical engineering, clinical science, and more. We combine deep technical rigor with a people-first mindset to turn breakthrough research into real-world medical solutions. As a Precision employee, you'll join one of the fastest-moving and best-capitalized companies in the emerging field of brain–computer interfaces.We are seeking a Senior Mechanical Engineer to join our Mechanical Engineering team to lead the design and development of intraoperative neuromonitoring devices and navigated surgical instruments. This position will best suit an engineer who is experienced with mechanical design of Class II medical devices, who thrives in regulated environments, enjoys hands-on product development, and can take ownership from concept through commercialization. This is an extraordinary opportunity to join our core team to help shape the future of our company. Your work will see commercialization quickly so that we improve the lives of patients who live with neurological disorders in a matter of months and years, not decades. This position will be based in our Manhattan office.Key Responsibilities:Lead mechanical design and development of Class II medical devices, including intraoperative neuromonitoring devices and navigated handheld surgical instrumentsExecute hands-on design, testing, and process development for neuronavigated instruments for surgical deployment of our micro electrode array onto the cortical surfaceDesign for manufacturability (DFM) and assembly (DFA) of injection-molded plastic components, precision assemblies, and electromechanical systemsIntegrate our surgical hardware with existing commercial navigation systems and patient planning interfaces (eg StealthStation) such that it maximizes endpoint accuracy, reliability, and safetyComplete hands-on assembly, integration and testing tasks while ensuring rigorous quality control is being enforced.Collaborate cross-functionally with electrical, firmware, quality, regulatory, and clinical teamsWork closely with partners, external vendors, and contract manufacturers on tooling, molding, and assembly processesDevelop and manage detailed CAD models, drawings, and design documentation in accordance with design control requirementsSkills, Knowledge and Expertise:BS/MS in Mechanical Engineering (ME), Biomedical Engineering (BME) or similar.6+ years of industry experience in mechanical engineering roles, preferably in the medical device industry (Class II or higher preferred)Proven experience designing plastic enclosures for electronic systems (injection molding, ingress protection and sealing, EMI/EMC considerations)Familiarity with EMI shielding strategies, grounding, and integration with sensitive electronicsExperience developing precision mechanical systems or probes, catheters, or handheld medical instrumentsHands-on experience with hardware integrated systems involving sensors, imaging systems and communicationsExperience with electromagnetically navigated or sensor-integrated medical devices would be preferredExperience with overmolding, insert molding, or multi-material assembliesExperience working to design controls, risk management, and regulated product developmentExcellent organizational and communication skills; able to collaborate with neuroscientists, neurosurgeons, and electrical, software, and quality engineersExpert in CAD (we use SolidWorks) and finite element analysis FEATrack record of working towards accelerated timelinesDiversity, equity, and inclusion are core values at Precision Neuroscience.
