About Paradromics

We are building a direct data interface with the brain to provide technology solutions to unmet medical challenges. A revolutionary leap beyond today’s research-grade brain computer interfaces (BCI), our Connexus® Direct Data Interface (DDI) collects neural signals at an industry-leading high data-rate and is designed for long-term daily use.

Our first clinical application will enable severely motor-impaired people to communicate and independently use a computer, translating their neural signals into synthesized speech, text, and cursor control.

We will continue to expand the capabilities of our massively scalable platform to support a pipeline of future applications that could benefit millions.

This position is based on-site in College Station, Texas. We are building next-generation brain implants to treat serious conditions in mental and physical health.

If you want to use your skills in a positive, impactful way, if you like to be intellectually challenged, and if you want to be surrounded by hard-working and passionate co-workers, this work will be highly fulfilling.
