Senior Engineer, Embedded Software/Firmware-CA Full Time San Diego, CA, US
30+ days ago Requisition ID: 1018
Salary Range: $140,000.00 To $200,000.00 Annually
About Synchron
Synchron’s vision is to build non-surgical brain–computer interfaces at global scale that protect the fundamental human rights of freedom of expression and autonomy. Our first mission is to develop motor decoders that restore the ability of 15 million people with paralysis to interact with the digital world. Our second mission is to develop whole-brain cognitive decoders that enable hundreds of millions of people with cognitive decline to preserve and expand their agency as cognition changes over time. In pursuing these goals, we aim not only to help humans flourish, but also to drive fundamental discoveries in human intelligence. Our team operates at the intersection of healthcare and technology, translating breakthrough research into real-world, safety-critical systems.
Senior Engineer, Embedded Software / Firmware
Implantable Neuroelectronics Team
Location: On-Site – San Diego, CA
Employment Type: Full-Time
About the Role
We are seeking a embedded software engineer to assume technical ownership of firmware and system architecture for our implantable neuroelectronics platform. This individual will serve as the engineering authority for the Implantable Recording & Transmission Unit (IRTU), with end-to-end accountability across neural acquisition, power management, wireless telemetry, safety architecture, and real-time embedded performance.
This is a hands-on role with visibility across the organization. The successful candidate must be capable of debugging low-level firmware directly while defining architectural direction required to scale toward pivotal trial and commercialization.
Key Responsibilities Technical Ownership
Define and own firmware architecture across implantable and external neuroelectronic systems
Architect deterministic, low-latency neural acquisition pipelines under strict power and thermal constraints
Lead hardware–software co-design across analog front end, analog to digital conversion, ASIC, RF communication, and battery subsystems
Design and validate safe boot, watchdog, fault-handling, and firmware update mechanisms suitable for implantable devices
Establish system-level performance budgets (power, latency, memory, RF throughput)
System Integrity & Reliability
Maintain end-to-end accountability for the neural signal chain from electrode interface through digital command output
Lead structured root-cause analysis across electrical, firmware, RF, and mechanical domains
Define verification and validation strategies for safety-critical firmware
Identify and prioritize technical risks ahead of pivotal trial milestones
Regulatory & Design Controls
Serve as firmware technical lead within design controls framework (IEC 62304, ISO 13485, 21 CFR 820)
Ensure traceability between system requirements, firmware architecture, and verification evidence
Partner with Regulatory and Quality to support audit readiness and pivotal trial submissions
Team & Infrastructure Development
Help to build and mentor a high-performance embedded engineering team
Establish coding standards, CI/CD pipelines, version control discipline, and automated testing infrastructure
Eliminate single-point-of-failure technical knowledge risk across the platform
Required Qualifications
Bachelor’s degree or equivalent practical experience in electrical/computer engineering, computer science or related technical field
5+ years of embedded systems experience
Expertise in low-power microcontrollers and real-time systems
Strong C/C++ & python firmware development experience
Experience with wireless telemetry (BLE or custom RF systems)
Demonstrated ownership of complex hardware–software systems
Preferred Qualifications
Implantable medical device experience
Neural recording, stimulation, or bioelectronic medicine background
ASIC integration experience
Long-lived battery-powered system design
Experience in regulated or safety-critical environments (medical device, aerospace, or equivalent)
Compensation The base salary range for this role is $140,000 – $200,000 depending on experience, skills, and qualifications.
In addition to base salary, this role may be eligible for discretionary bonuses and/or equity grants , subject to board approval and company policy.
