Long-term success in this role will require contributions to high-impact research that advances the field of neurotechnology; developing research programs to support Blackrock Neurotech’s roadmap for brain-computer interfaces; and, building and maintaining strong collaborations with colleagues within Blackrock and in the academic community. This role will plan, execute, and supervise data acquisition and experimental protocols that fit within larger pre-clinical studies and clinical trials, including intraoperative electrophysiology studies and associated hardware testing, ensuring that study endpoints, workflows, and data quality expectations translate effectively across environments and strategically align with the company’s vision and goals.

Job Responsibility:

Lead and manage clinical research projects, collaborating with pre-clinical and multidisciplinary teams, and ensuring alignment with company goals and regulatory requirements
Partner between clinical and pre-clinical teams to develop and execute acute and intraoperative electrophysiology studies, including defining endpoints, coordinating execution workflows, and ensuring high-quality data acquisition
Support and/or coordinate hardware testing in the context of acute/intraoperative clinical studies (e.g., test planning, setup verification, troubleshooting, and structured capture of outcomes to inform development decisions)
Analyze and interpret complex data sets, providing actionable insights to guide BCI development
Collaborate with cross-functional teams, including engineering, regulatory, and clinical affairs, with emphasis on bridging clinical and pre-clinical stakeholders to align study execution and hardware testing needs
Prepare and present scientific reports, publications, and presentations to internal and external stakeholders
Stay current with advancements in neurotechnology and related fields to inform research strategies
Mentor and provide guidance to junior scientists and other team members

Requirements:

Ph.D. in Neuroscience, Biomedical Engineering, or a related field
Proven expertise in experimental design, data analysis, and scientific communication
Demonstrated experience working across pre-clinical and clinical research settings, with the ability to translate study objectives into executable protocols and comparable datasets across settings
Experience developing and/or executing acute and/or intraoperative electrophysiology studies
Strong analytical skills and proficiency with statistical software and data visualization tools, including analysis of electrophysiology and device performance data
Excellent written and verbal communication skills
Ability to work independently and as part of a collaborative team

Nice to have:

Experience with regulatory submissions and clinical trial design is a plus
Familiarity with neurotech and neuroscience research is highly desirable (including acute and intraoperative electrophysiology workflows and translation of methods between pre-clinical and clinical settings)
Experience in pre-clinical or clinical research, preferably in neuroscience-related fields
Comfort partnering with engineering teams to plan and document hardware testing performed during acute, intraoperative, and/or pre-clinical studies
