About Nudge
Nudge’s goal is to help the brain work better by creating a generalized product that can precisely stimulate and image the brain, entirely non-invasively. We aim to achieve this by developing cutting-edge ultrasound technology to treat neurological and psychiatric disorders, like addiction, and eventually, creating a mainstream consumer device that can modulate mood, focus, sleep, and more.

As a mechanical engineer at Nudge you will:
- Develop and refine mechanical designs for ultrasound transducer arrays, housings, and support structures in self-contained wearable ultrasound neuromodulation systems.
- Work closely with electrical engineers, acoustics specialists, and product designers to integrate mechanical components seamlessly.
- Ensure devices are ergonomic and adaptable, accommodating a wide range of body types, head sizes, and usage scenarios for maximum comfort and usability.
- Bootstrap an in-house, state of the art piezo ultrasound transducer fab in San Francisco.
- 3+ years of experience
- Degree in Mechanical Engineering, or equivalent
- Proficiency in CAD
- Demonstrated history of exceptional contributions in your prior work experiences
$140,000 - $270,000/year + equity
