Why a CV for this job?
- They see what they asked for, first. Your experience that matches the ad leads, in the ad's own words, so someone skimming finds it in seconds.
- It gets past the software. Many larger employers use software that ranks CVs by how closely they match the ad, often before anyone reads them.
- In the language of the ad. An ad written in Spanish gets a CV in Spanish, even when yours is in Portuguese.
- Your facts, nothing invented. Your own experience, reordered and reworded. What the ad wants and your CV does not show is listed for you to add, only if it is true. You check it before you send it.
About the role
As a mechanical engineer at Nudge, you will:
- Design and build hardware to support a variety of company functions, such as device manufacturing, animal studies, and clinical trials.
- Develop test systems that are precise, high throughput, and reliable
- Own designs from concept through prototyping to deployment in clinical trials
- Work closely with electrical engineers, software engineers, ultrasound engineers, and clinical operators
About Nudge
At Nudge, our mission is to develop the best technology for interfacing with the brain to improve people's lives. We're starting with an approach that we believe can help the most people the fastest, and also allow us to learn as much about the brain as possible: developing a non-invasive, ultrasound-based device that can stimulate and image the brain at high resolution and depth. This is a vertically integrated effort building cutting-edge hardware, software, and research capabilities to create products that can benefit millions — and eventually billions — of people.
To succeed, we need to assemble world-class teams across everything we do. We hire people who are exceptional at their craft, believe hard things are worth doing, and execute relentlessly — people who expect the highest levels of both rigor and integrity from each other.

We are looking for engineers of all levels but regardless of your career level, you should have:
- Strong engineering / physics first principles
- Exceptional proficiency in CAD and rapid prototyping
- Degree in Mechanical Engineering, or equivalent experience
- Demonstrated history of exceptional technical contribution
- High integrity and strong professional judgement
