Paradromics is building a brain-computer interface (BCI) platform that records brain activity at the highest possible resolution: the individual neuron. AI algorithms then decode this massive amount of brain-data, enabling the seamless translation of thought into treatments. </span></span></span></span></span></span></p> <p style="line-height:1.3800000000000001;text-align:justify;"><span style="font-size:12pt;font-variant:normal;white-space:pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family:Arial, sans-serif;"><span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-weight:400;"><span style="font-style:normal;"><span style="text-decoration:none;">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.</span></span></span></span></span></span></p> <p style="line-height:1.3800000000000001;"><span style="font-size:13.999999999999998pt;font-variant:normal;white-space:pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family:Arial, sans-serif;"><span style="color:#003bae;"><span style="font-weight:400;"><span style="font-style:normal;"><span style="text-decoration:none;">The Role</span></span></span></span></span></span></p><p style="line-height:1.3800000000000001;margin-top:16px;margin-bottom:16px;"><span style="font-size:12pt;font-variant:normal;white-space:pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family:Arial, sans-serif;"><span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-weight:400;"><span style="font-style:normal;"><span style="text-decoration:none;">Paradromics is seeking a Tooling and Automation Engineer to define and build our end-to-end testing ecosystem across both hardware and software systems.
