UC Davis Neuroprosthetics laboratory | Must be eligible to work in the USA (no Visas available) | ONSITE | Full-time | Davis / Sacramento area (Northern California)
The UC Davis Neuroprosthetics lab is looking to hire a full time programmer to create the next generation of intracranial brain computer interface technology. As part of this position, you will help design, implement, and validate software infrastructure for processing high-volume real-time neural data. You will support a team of researchers performing cutting-edge research, with the goal of creating a robust and reliable prosthetic to help people with paralysis. The position is inherently multidisciplinary, and you’ll have the opportunity to develop skills from a variety of backgrounds, including: real-time software development, digital signal processing, machine learning, computational neuroscience, audio processing, and more. No formal neuroscience experience is needed.
This position will be jointly supervised by the co-directors of the UC Davis Neuroprosthetics lab. Dr. Sergey Stavisky (stavisky.info) is a leader in motor systems neuroscience, and has extensive experience building BCIs for people with paralysis. Dr. David Brandman (brandman.ca) is a neurosurgeon who specializes in translational neurophysiology. Both directors have extensive programming experience in multiple languages and environments. As part of this position you’ll work closely with graduate students and post-doctoral fellows, both at UCDavis and at several other institutions across the country.
As part of the position, you’ll have a chance to let us know your hardware and office-space requirements. The workplace is based on UC Davis campus, and we’ll expect you to be at the lab most days; however, there is ample opportunity available for working from home.
We would be open to having you start as early as 1 October 2021.
