Synchron builds brain-computer interfaces that restore and protect human agency. Its Stentrode™ implant is delivered through the blood vessels rather than by open brain surgery, in a roughly two-hour procedure in its clinical trial, and reads motor intent from inside a vessel adjacent to the motor cortex. People living with severe paralysis have used it to text, browse, shop and control devices in their homes by thought alone. Chiral™, the brain foundation model introduced in 2025, learns directly from that neural data.

About the role

Synchron Cognition Labs is hiring Research Engineers to work with Research Scientists on the AI/ML models that turn neural signals into action. The work sits close to the product: taking models trained on a handful of implant recipients and making them reliable enough for daily control of an iPhone, iPad, Apple Vision Pro, a smart home, or an LLM-assisted conversation with family.

Two constraints define the work. Clinical data is measured in patient-years rather than petabytes, so data efficiency is the research problem rather than an optimization. And the model output is someone's only means of speaking, so latency, stability and failure behavior matter as much as accuracy.
