Analog/Mixed-Signal ASIC Designer

Who we areIntegral is building technologies to treat neurological and psychiatric disorders.Our first device is a miniaturized, implanted, deep-brain interface for severely affected patients. It will have unprecedented capabilities for recording and modulating neural activity and for monitoring patients’ symptoms.This device will dramatically advance our ability to treat brain disorders and to understand their biological causes. We will use this unique discovery platform to develop an expanding range of more effective treatments that will ultimately be accessible to everyone.Leadership:Flip Sabes, CSO - Neuralink cofounder, UCSF Professor Emeritus, neuroscientist and neurotech innovatorMilan Cvitkovic, CEO - Neurotech venture builder; previously first-hire at Convergent Research, AI researcher, and software engineerStephen O'Driscoll, VP of Engineering - Verily cofounder and former Head of Electrical Engineering, former Director of Device Electronics at Science CorpWe prioritize ambitious engineering, speed, and patients' needs. What you’ll doYou’ll be a founding member of Integral's ASIC team, responsible for developing - from scratch - and shipping the core ICs that will define the capabilities of our first product. You'll build chips for neural recording and stimulation that achieve state-of-the-art miniaturization, power efficiency, and channel count, designed to meet the highest standards of reliability, safety, and supply chain resilience.We work full-time, in-person in South San Francisco.Who we’re looking forYou should have substantial skills and expertise in at least one of the following areas:Recording front-end developmentLow-noise, low-bandwidth preamplifier designLow-power, low-sampling-rate ADC design Signal conditioning filter design, including switched capacitor filtersNoise suppression, correlated double sampling/chopper stabilizationAnalog mux/demux designStimulation engine developmentCharge pumping or voltage boostingBoost converters, switched capacitor and/or inductor basedCurrent-steering DAC designAnalog mux/demux designReconstruction filters for DAC outputPower conditioningVoltage regulators, including switched capacitor convertersBoost converters, switched capacitor and/or inductor basedVoltage reference designOn-chip biosignal processingFamiliar with processing neural signals on-chipArtifact rejection techniques for stimulation and record systemsData compression techniquesInterchip data interfacesExperience in drivers, receivers, and SerDes for interchip communicationYou should also have:Ideally taken at least 5 mixed-signal ICs through the full cycle: design to marketA track record of swift execution(Bonus) Designed ASICs in heavily regulated industriesNeurotechnology experience is not necessary.
