About the role
About Neuralink: We are creating devices that enable a bi-directional interface with the brain. These devices allow us to restore movement to the paralyzed, restore sight to the blind, and revolutionize how humans interact with their digital world. Team Description: The Microfabrication Team, a division of the Brain Interfaces Hardware Department, designs, manufactures, and verifies the thin-film microelectrode array that records and relays neural signals to the body of the implant.
The team operates at an in-house cleanroom facility in Fremont, with operations expanding to Austin in the near future. Job Description and
Responsibilities: As a Microfabrication Technician (Second Shift) at Neuralink, you will be responsible for the production of our thin-film microelectrode arrays, collaborating with engineers to maintain equipment and processes within specification, and working to improve array throughput. As such, you will be instrumental in ramping production and accelerating Neuralink’s progress. Note: Second shift schedule will be 6 pm to 2 am, Monday through Friday. Additional
responsibilities will include: Operating equipment such as ASML, photoresist spin coater, reactive ion etcher, e-beam evaporator, sputter physical vapor deposition system, plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition, and wet processing stations Troubleshooting and maintaining equipment and equipment calibration and performance Creating and maintaining process documentation and equipment documentation, including daily process logs and equipment logs Actively collecting data and visually detecting defects on production lines in a fast-paced environment Assisting in data analysis of throughput, quality, and repeatability of manufacturing processes Ensuring product quality and conformance to design
requirements Collaborating with engineers to refine, troubleshoot, and improve processes while maintaining or enhancing product quality and yield Keeping a clean, organized, and thoroughly-maintained cleanroom or workspace Testing the finished thin-film arrays to ensure that they meet the required specifications or standards Required
