Résumé du poste

Bridge Neurotech, Inc. is seeking an Ultrasound Imaging Scientist to own imaging sequences at the heart of our fUSI platform.

You will design, optimize, and validate functional ultrasound sequences for our probes and custom hardware, feeding the research study and real-time decoding pipelines. In the near term, you will push transcranial fUSI performance on off-the-shelf research probes, developing and tuning sequences for imaging through implants, and defining what constitutes good acquisition

Qualifications

• PhD (or equivalent) in ultrasound imaging, biomedical engineering, electrical engineering, or a related field.
• Hands-on ultrafast ultrasound experience: beamforming, plane-wave imaging, and image reconstruction.
• Strong command of imaging signal-processing: IQ demodulation, clutter/SVD filtering, Doppler and power-Doppler methods, autocorrelation.
• Proficiency with MATLAB and/or Python and working with probe hardware and research acquisition platforms.
• Comfort operating in a small, fast-moving team on hard, open-ended problems.
• Direct experience with functional ultrasound imaging (fUSI) or transcranial ultrasound.

Responsabilités

• Develop and optimize fUSI imaging sequences (plane-wave, compounded plane-wave, focused) and reconstruction pipelines.
• Push the limits of the current research platform by bringing up sequences on Butterfly research probes and defining baselines.
• Define imaging requirements for custom hardware in partnership with embedded and hardware teams.
• Own imaging protocols for our research study: design acquisition procedures and analyze imaging data.
• Partner with the decoding team on data quality, throughput, and latency to meet neural decoders’ needs.
• Build analysis and validation tooling to evaluate sequence performance as the platform evolves.
