About Cala

At Cala, we’re working to free people from the burden of chronic disease. We began by creating the first non-invasive prescription therapy for hand tremor. After years of careful fine-tuning and improvements, we released Cala kIQ — our most sophisticated therapy yet. Our products have empowered thousands of people to get back to their lives with confidence and ease.

But we won’t stop there. Our pioneering technology can be applied across neurology, cardiology, and so much more. It’s all part of our mission to help people in their struggle with chronic disease. We’re only just getting started.

The role will be heavy on individual contribution of firmware development and medical device design controls documentation. This role will also provide support, mentorship, and technical leadership to more junior firmware and systems engineers. The Principal Firmware Engineer will report to the VP Technology.

The compensation range for this role is market driven, with a salary range of $160,000 - $200,000. Additionally, we offer a robust benefits package. This offering is aligned with our overall compensation philosophy.
