Forest Neurotech is seeking a ML Infrastructure Engineer to work on the development of a neurotechnology research platform for the world’s first minimally invasive, ultrasound-based neural implant.
Forest Neurotech is developing an ultrasound based BCI and software platform with the aim of catalyzing breakthroughs in both the understanding and personalized treatment of the human brain. Ultrasound is capable of measuring and stimulating brain-wide activity in a minimally invasive manner. This opens new avenues for research into personalized therapies across a range of psychiatric and cognitive disorders. To accelerate these efforts, Forest has secured a
partnership with Butterfly Network with exclusive access to the only FDA approved and mass produced Ultrasound-on-Chip. As a non-profit
Focused Research Organization (FRO), Forest Neurotech has the freedom to focus solely on advancing science and engineering for the public good. Pioneered by Convergent Research, a member of the Schmidt Futures Network, FROs are designed to overcome key technological bottlenecks for the advancement of science and medicine. Forest was recently featured in
Wired and
IEEE. Visit

Forest is structured as a
Focused Research Organization (FRO). FROs are a new type of startup-nonprofit hybrid organization for pursuing advanced scientific projects not achievable in academia or a VC-backed startup. As an FRO, Forest can execute with the intensity and focus of a founder-led startup, but with the mission and operational flexibility to maximally advance neurotechnology and benefit society rather than focusing on near-term company value.
Forest has five years of runway. Salaries will be competitive with industry.
This is a full time role based on-site in downtown Los Angeles, CA.
Forest Neurotech is seeking a passionate and talented ML Infrastructure Engineer to join our innovative team. In this role, you will play a critical part in developing and managing the core infrastructure that enables us to advance our groundbreaking neurotechnology research. Your expertise will enable the processing and analysis of petabyte-scale datasets, supporting the development of our minimally invasive, ultrasound-based neural implant. By contributing to our mission, you will help catalyze breakthroughs in understanding and treating psychiatric and cognitive disorders, ultimately improving brain health and personalized therapies for individuals worldwide.
Please provide a CV, cover letter briefly highlighting the project you are most proud of, and links to relevant profiles (LinkedIn, GitHub) or publications.
