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 Infrastructure Team builds the foundation that enables the company to operate safely, robustly, and move at light-speed. We run a mixture of cloud-based and on-prem systems and have a user base spanning from highly technically proficient engineers to non-technical scientists and doctors; but all of them need solid systems, rugged networking, and bullet-proof software to do their jobs. This role will integrate tightly with teams across the company, and span all layers of the work environment stack, from deployment of physical hardware on the manufacturing line, to custom tooling to stream neural recordings from implants.
Tech Stack:
- Rust, Python
- Terraform
- Bazel and Nix
- Kubernetes
- GitLab CI
- AWS
- Ubuntu, Fedora
Focus:
- Developing the foundations for teams to build the software and systems required for record-breaking BCI experiences.
- Enhancing developer experience with robust tooling and build-system infrastructure.
- Building foundational infrastructure for HITL (hardware in the loop) testing across firmware, BCI, and robot teams.
- Ground-up infrastructure of on-premise solutions as well as cloud architecture.
- Foundational software engineering with a focus on serving internal software teams.
Qualifications:
- Experience using IAC tools such as Terraform, Docker, Packer, Ansible, Cloud-Init, Kickstart.
- Working knowledge of compiled languages, ideally Rust, Go, or C/C++.
- Working knowledge of major cryptographic protocols and authentication schemes such as TLS, x509, 802.1x, U2F, SAML.
- Familiarity with modern Linux boot process, UEFI, TPM measured boot, Secure Boot, Systemd.
- Systems administration experience on Windows, macOS, and Linux.
- In-depth understanding of modern networking and common protocols.
- Ability to architect, build, and ship 0 to 1 infrastructure quickly and efficiently.
Expected Compensation:
The anticipated base salary for this position is expected to be within the following range. Your actual base pay will be determined by your job-related skills, experience, and relevant education or training. We also believe in aligning our employees’ success with the company's long-term growth.

What We Do
Neuralink is a team of exceptionally talented people. We are creating the future of brain-machine interfaces: building devices now that will help people with paralysis and inventing new technologies that will expand our abilities, our community, and our world. Our goal is to build a system with at least two orders of magnitude more communication channels (electrodes) than current clinically-approved devices. This system needs to be safe, it must have fully wireless communication through the skin, and it has to be ready for patients to take home and use on their own. Our device, called the Link, will be able to record from 1024 electrodes and is designed to meet these criteria.
