Why a CV for this job?

94% of employers say their filters drop qualified candidates whose CV does not match the ad's exact criteria (Harvard Business School, 2021).

  • 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 full stack software engineer at Nudge, you will:

  • Design and build software from the ground up, from database migrations to polished front-end features
  • Create tools that help engineers and neuroscientists work more efficiently
  • Collaborate closely with teammates to understand challenges and deliver solutions quickly
  • Own projects through all stages: design, implementation, testing, and deployment
  • Tackle a wide range of problems, from data pipelines to internal systems

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.

About you

We are looking for engineers of all levels but regardless of your career level, you should have:

  • Strong engineering / physics first principles
  • Experience with full-stack web development (Python, Typescript, etc.)
  • Experience with infrastructure engineering and site-reliability (Kubernetes, AWS, Terraform, etc.)
  • Degree in Computer Science or similar engineering discipline
  • A demonstrated history of shipping high-impact projects to customers and responding to feedback
  • High integrity and strong professional judgement
