Neuralink (www.neuralink.com) | Software Engineer, Robotics Team | San Francisco, CA | ONSITE, VISA | Full-time

Neuralink is building high bandwidth brain computer interfaces. Our approach requires a surgical robot to manipulate and safely insert hundreds of ~50um x ~5um x ~20mm electrodes. The robotics team is looking for good software engineers to join us. You don't need to be a robotics engineer, but you should have proficiency in C++ and a desire to work on high reliability safety critical systems.

For more context on the robotics work we have here, you can check out this paper on one of our older systems: https://www.biorxiv.org/content/biorxiv/early/2019/08/02/703...

Fern Creek Software | Louisville KY | Multiple Positions | Remote

Fern Creek is a software consulting company. We build stuff for other people, usually in .NET on Azure but we do other stuff occasionally. The company has been around since I started consulting independently about 20 years ago. Recently I started taking on larger projects that need more people and as a result, started hiring people. Sometimes a 1099, sometimes W2.

This is not super sexy stuff where you will get options that might be worth millions, but likely worth nothing. What you will get is a load of experience on new tech (asp.net core, azure, blazor etc) and a great focus on the best feature of all...shipping.

The job is remote so you don't have to be in Louisville though if you are close that is cool. Set your own hours and all that, I want pros not people that need babysitting.

3 openings right now...

Full stack dev (C#, asp.net core, sql server etc) UX Guru (more than a photoshop jockey, make the html and css for us so we dont have to) QA engineer (test all the things, write unit tests, automated UI tests)

Live the stress free life, work from home, build some cool tech, make money, be happy etc etc.

Shoot me a message at jobs at ferncreeksoftware.com

Persona | Designer | Remote | Full-time | $70k-$110k

About Persona

As a new parent, you realize with clarity that time is fleeting. When your parent is diagnosed with Parkinson's, you realize with clarity that life is short. You realize that your most important memories are just sitting in your fallible mind. Our memories are one of our most important possessions, yet we don't use a dedicated tool to help us relive our family's love.

In the future, you'll have your precious memories at your fingertips. Whenever you need them, wherever you are, stored securely forever. We'll share these memories with the people closest to us & keep these precious memories within quick reach for us personally. We'll take a few minutes here and there to reminisce through our memories. Escape. Relive our family's love: our children's laughter, our spouse's wedding day smile, our parent's "it'll be okay". It will all be there, in one spot: deep & meaningful.

To bring this to reality we need to do a few things: We need to make collecting memories fun, make curating delightful with collaboration, & build magical relive experiences. We're building a platform that starts by focusing on Millennial parents, with the intention of bringing along the Gen X grandparents for the social network Facebook should have been: a private family room instead of a public town square. Focused on love & family, not memes & politics.

About the Role

We're looking for our 1st hire, a designer to help us set our design foundation. We're a team of 3 (engineering, iOS, & product).

Role Requirements:

- Beautiful modern design sense

- Positive attitude

- Growth mindset

- Loves working remote

Ideal Candidate:

- Mother

- Willing to help in other areas of the business

- Illustration animation experience

- Sketch experience

This project is being worked on by experienced startup founders (2 startups: 1st acquired, 2nd funded $20m).
