Company Overview
Echo Neurotechnologies is an exciting new startup in the Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) space, driving innovation through advanced hardware engineering and AI solutions. Our mission is to deliver cutting-edge technologies that restore autonomy to people living with disabilities and improve their quality of life.
Team Culture
Join a small, dedicated team of knowledgeable and motivated professionals. Our early-stage environment offers the opportunity to take ownership of broad decisions with significant and long-lasting impact. We emphasize continuous learning and growth, fostering cross-functional collaboration where your contributions are vital to our success.
Role Overview
As a Senior Electrical Engineer, you will drive electrical system architecture and circuit design for medical
devices spanning wearables to active implants. You will work across the full stack of low-power medical
electronics, from novel sensing modalities and sensor front-ends to wireless power and communication
systems, taking designs from concept through simulation, silicon, and board bring-up to a validated product.
You bring a robust core skillset in electrical engineering, specialist know-how in one or more related areas, and
enjoy working across the boundaries between hardware, firmware, mechanical, and software.
Key Responsibilities
System Architecture: Architect and design EE systems integrating compute, sensing, power, and
communications within tightly power- and space-constrained form factors, from body-worn wearables to
implants.
Sensing & Sensors: Explore, evaluate, and prototype novel sensing modalities and sensor interfaces,
translating concepts into product-oriented designs.
Electrical & Circuit Design: Design and characterize analog/mixed-signal circuits for wearable and
implantable applications, including simulation, statistical validation, and bench characterization.
Wireless Power: Develop custom wireless power transfer systems with a focus on high end-to-end
efficiency, robust performance across varying coupling conditions, and modern control methods.
Electromagnetic Simulation: Perform EM simulations to design and optimize wireless power coils and
communication antennas (BLE, Wi-Fi, UWB, etc.), and correlate simulation results with measurements.
Mixed-Signal ASIC Development: Contribute to ASIC architecture definition, develop new
analog/mixed-signal modules and IP, run block- and system-level simulations, and lead post-silicon
validation.
PCBA Development: Develop and own PCBAs from schematic capture and layout through bring-up,
debug, and design iteration.
Qualifications & Skills
Master's or PhD in Electrical Engineering or related field. Equivalent experience and exceptional
capabilities will be considered.
Specialist expertise in one or more of: mixed-signal ASIC development, wireless power systems, radios
and antennas.
Experience in analog/mixed-signal circuit design experience (simulation, characterization, statistical
validation).
Experience developing systems with MCUs and FPGAs.
Experience with RF/EM simulation tools and methods (e.g., Ansys HFSS, CST Studio Suite, Ansys
Maxwell, or equivalent).
Hands-on lab proficiency with instruments such as oscilloscopes, spectrum and vector network
analyzers, impedance analyzers, and source measure units.
Functional knowledge of C, Python, and Verilog.
Comfortable working across hardware, firmware, mechanical, and software boundaries and
collaborating with cross-functional device teams.
