Nudge is developing cutting edge ultrasound phased array technology for precise stimulation and imaging of human brain regions, entirely non-invasively.
To realize those ambitions, we're growing a scrappy multidisciplinary engineering team, focused on making a mainstream consumer device that will improve people's daily life more than any other technology.
Software
- Build a full stack simulation environment for neuromodulation targeting and analysis
- Design user interactions for device operation in a research study setting, and beyond to consumer use
- Orchestrate complex connections of device firmware, ML, user interface, and cloud software components
Electrical
- Invent efficient and scalable drive circuitry for high voltage and high channel count piezoceramic transducer arrays
- Create experiment metrology systems for advancing our understanding of ultrasound physics and neurobiology
Mechanical
- Design and deliver components and architecture for self-contained wearable ultrasound neuromodulation systems
- Bootstrap an in-house, state of the art piezo ultrasound transducer fab in San Francisco
Acoustics
- Design high efficiency focused ultrasound transducer arrays for in-house fabrication
- Build multiphysics simulation software for informing component designs
- Develop fabrication techniques for advancing capabilities of array manufacturing
Machine Learning
- Architect models that reconstruct detailed mental states from MRI and ultrasound
- Develop techniques for accurate and performant structural and functional imaging
- Innovate methods to cleverly accelerate acoustic physics simulation, off-prem and on-device
Firmware
- Control high channel count phased array drivers for precise neuromodulation beamforming
- Design data acquisition and onboard signal processing for novel ultrasound imaging techniques
Science
- Lead the largest noninvasive human neuromodulation studies in the world, for treating mental health and in healthy volunteers
- Organize and conduct experiments for next-gen BCI (brain-computer interfacing)
- Develop and test portable, ultrasound-based, MRI-quality structural and functional imaging
Study Operations
- Coordinate the largest noninvasive human neuromodulation studies in the world across people with mental health conditions and healthy people
