Manufacturing Operator About Paradromics Brain-related illness is one of the last great frontiers in medicine, not because the brain is unknowable, but because it has been inaccessible. Paradromics is building a brain-computer interface (BCI) platform that records brain activity at the highest possible resolution: the individual neuron.

The Operator I role is an entry-level manufacturing position responsible for reliably building the small, delicate, and patient-critical components of the Connexus BCI platform. This role is focused on executing released manufacturing processes with precision, consistency, and strict adherence to quality and documentation standards in a cleanroom or controlled manufacturing environment. Over the first 12–18 months, the Operator I will become a dependable contributor across foundational manufacturing blocks. Success in this role requires patience, fine manual dexterity, attention to detail, and a willingness to learn through hands-on training and continuous feedback.

About paradromicsinc

  • AI algorithms then decode this massive amount of brain-data, enabling the seamless translation of thought into treatments.
  • Our first clinical application, the Connexus® BCI, will help people who are unable to speak, due to ALS, spinal cord injuries and stroke, to communicate independently through digital devices.
  • However, the capabilities of our BCI platform go far beyond our first application.
  • With the brain in direct communication with digital devices, we can leverage technology to transform how we treat conditions ranging from sensory and motor deficits to untreatable mental illness.

Responsibilities

  • Perform fine manual assembly, handling, and processing tasks under microscopes or magnification.
  • Complete GDP-compliant manufacturing documentation accurately and legibly, including lot tracking, measurements, and observations.
  • Safely handle delicate materials and minimize damage events.
  • Maintain cleanroom protocols, gowning standards, and contamination-control practices.
  • Participate in training and qualification activities for manufacturing processes and equipment.
  • Communicate clearly and respectfully with operators, technicians, engineers, manufacturing leadership, and quality teams.
  • Support a culture of quality, safety, organization, and continuous improvement.

Requirements

  • Education High school diploma or equivalent required.
  • Technical certification, vocational training, or associate degree in manufacturing, laboratory sciences, electronics, or a related field is a plus.
