About Nudge

At Nudge, our mission is to develop the best technology for interfacing with the brain to improve people's lives. We're starting with an approach that we believe can help the most people the fastest, and also allow us to learn as much about the brain as possible: developing a non‑invasive, ultrasound‑based device that can stimulate and image the brain at high resolution and depth. This is a vertically integrated effort building cutting‑edge hardware, software, and research capabilities to create products that can benefit millions — and eventually billions — of people.

We’ve brought together a team of the best, who believe hard things are worth doing. To succeed, we need to assemble world‑class teams across everything we do. We hire people who are exceptional at their craft, do the real work, and execute relentlessly — people who expect the highest levels of both rigor and integrity from each other.

About the role

As an engineering technician at Nudge, you will:

• Partner with engineers to fabricate and assemble electromechanical components and systems used in benchtop development and clinical studies
• Execute and refine test procedures for ultrasound systems
• Support deployment, verification, and maintenance of systems used in clinical research studies
• Help keep the lab running by supporting 3D printing, equipment maintenance, materials inventory, etc.

About you

We are looking for technicians of all levels, with a preference for at least 2+ years of industry experience. Regardless of your career level, you should have:

• A degree in an engineering discipline or equivalent hands‑on experience
• Experience demonstrating strong technical execution in an engineering or technician role
• Proven ability to work independently while collaborating closely with cross‑functional engineering teams
• Comfortable working in an extremely dynamic, fast‑paced environment
• Demonstrated history of exceptional technical contribution
• Strong attention to detail and organization
