About the role

Field-based technical professional supporting early feasibility and first-in-human studies for Paradromics’ implantable BCI system, serving as a bridge between clinicians and engineers to ensure safe, reliable use and to translate field learnings into system and process improvements.

Responsibilities

  • Serve as the in-field technical representative during early feasibility study (EFS) procedures, study visits, and neural recording sessions, working closely with participants, clinical site teams, and Paradromics colleagues.
  • Prepare, configure, calibrate, operate, and break down study systems consistently and correctly, completing appropriate system checks and confirming readiness for clinical and recording sessions.
  • Support the design, execution, and refinement of neural recording and BCI session workflows to generate high-quality, consistent, and analyzable neural data.
  • Monitor neural signals and system performance in real time, recognizing signal loss, artifacts, unexpected behavior, or configuration issues that could affect session quality.
  • Troubleshoot hardware, software, device, connectivity, and signal-quality issues in real time within clinical environments, applying sound judgment and escalating appropriately when additional support is needed.
  • Develop a strong understanding of the relationship between system configuration, neural signals, participant behavior, and task performance, using observations from sessions to help inform experimental workflows and decoding approaches.
  • Identify unexpected system behavior, workflow challenges, usability issues, and emerging risks early, and communicate them clearly to the appropriate teams before they affect participant experience, safety, or study integrity.
  • Capture and communicate field observations, technical issues, failure modes, usability feedback, and system limitations in a structured way that supports engineering improvements and risk-management activities.
  • Build strong relationships with study participants and their support networks, creating a professional, comfortable, and reliable experience during repeated and often lengthy study sessions.
  • Build trust and credibility with investigators, fellows, coordinators, and research staff through preparation, technical competence, sound judgment, responsiveness, and professionalism.
  • Act as a critical feedback loop between the field and internal teams, translating real-world clinical and participant experiences into clear, actionable information for Engineering, Clinical Affairs, Data Science, and Quality.
  • Contribute to the development and continuous improvement of training materials, field playbooks, SOPs, troubleshooting guides, and workflows that enable consistent execution across additional sites, field team members, and future studies.

Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s degree in engineering, neuroscience, nursing, biomedical sciences, or another relevant technical or clinical discipline, or equivalent combination of education and hands-on experience.
  • Advanced technical, clinical, or scientific training is welcomed but not required.
