    Design, build, and validate prototypes to enable path-finding research.

    Formulate ultrasound research strategy and direct execution.


    Work with cross-functional research and engineering partners to define system requirements and mature prototypes to increasing levels of fidelity, ranging from proof-of-concept bench-top demonstrations to wearable integrated systems.

    5+ years experience with ultrasound transducers including, but not limited to, loading effects, ultrasound power estimation, coupling methods to soft tissue, or driving-signal generation.

    5+ years experience with finite-element acoustics modeling in Ansys, Comsol, or other similar tools.

    5+ years experience with programming languages such as MATLAB, Python, C++, or similar.

    Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, relevant technical field, or equivalent practical experience.

    Preferred Qualifications


    • Experience with transducer assembly design including, but not limited to, backing material, matching layer, or wedges.


    Experience with shear-wave through-body ultrasound techniques including, but not limited to, shear-wave elastography, transient elastography, or other acoustic radiation force impulse (ARFI)-based imaging methods.

    Experience with mechanical design in Solid Works, AutoCAD, or other similar CAD tools.

    Experience with acoustics non-destructive evaluation.


    Experience with data analysis methods including, but not limited to, dispersion-relation estimation or surface-wave inversion used in, e.g., non-destructive evaluation, structural health monitoring, or seismology.
