Values
Patients come first
Everything we do is for our patients. Improving their quality of life and maintaining their privacy where desired is our first priority.
Strength in numbers
The power of teamwork, collaborative projects, and partnership is formidable. We actively and intentionally seek out diverse perspectives and expertise to drive better outcomes.
Rationality anchors thought
We embrace rational-mindedness, however absurd it may seem at times. We reject the unprovable and embrace truths others wouldn't dream to believe. This path will allow us to build category-defining technology.
Selective disagreeableness
We know when to speak up, push back and when to be a contrarian. We do not allow old ideas and the standard ways of doing things to dictate our path.
Perseverance drives change
Nothing worth doing comes easily. We recognize that solving the difficult problems of medicine will require determination. That's the cost of doing important work.
“It’s been incredibly rewarding to grow alongside the company, learning from an insanely talented team and contributing directly to a platform that I know will make a meaningful difference in patients' lives.”

Open roles
Global Operations Lead
We are seeking a Global Operations Lead to build and run the operational foundation of Coherence. As we move our implantable therapies toward the clinic and scale our research, engineering, and manufacturing, this role will make sure the company operates smoothly, compliantly, and at pace across every site and jurisdiction.
You will own global entity operations, insurance, compliance, contracts, procurement, logistics, and site strategy. You will work closely with Finance, Quality, Clinical, Regulatory and Operational teams. This is a high-impact role for a diligent operator who enjoys building systems from the ground up, thrives on variety, and wants to help bring life-changing medical technology to patients. Ultimately, if you derive pleasure from turning chaos into order, you might be the right fit!
Electrical Engineer, Implant Electronics
We are seeking an Electrical Engineer to join the implant engineering team and help design, build, test and integrate the implant electronics of SOMA, our fully implantable therapeutic brain stimulation system, at our San Francisco office.
This is a hands-on development role across the implant's electrical subsystems. You will own defined circuit and subsystem development tasks, from schematic design and component selection through prototyping, testing and debugging, and build the prototype hardware, PCBs and electrical interfaces the team needs to iterate on and integrate designs. Working closely with, and mentored by, our Senior EEs, you will take on larger circuits and subsystems as your experience grows. The ideal candidate is a hands-on electrical engineer who can design a board in Altium, bring it up and characterize it at the bench, automate measurements in Python, and think critically about whether a measured result makes logical sense.
Principal Electrical Engineer, Implant Electronics
We are seeking a Principal Electrical Engineer to own the overall electrical architecture of SOMA, our fully implantable therapeutic brain stimulation system, and to lead its design and integration hands-on at our San Francisco office.
This is a hands-on technical role. You will define how the implant's stimulation, recording, optical and digital electronics fit together, and you will own major portions of the actual design and integration work: schematics, component selection, board architecture, bring-up and debug, through to a dense rigid-flex/HDI implant PCBA. Working with the Senior EEs, you will resolve cross-subsystem design decisions and make sure the integrated implant meets its power, thermal, noise, safety, EMC and MRI requirements. The ideal candidate is a mixed-signal engineer who has taken a dense, low-power product from architecture to production, and who is happiest with a schematic open and a scope probe in hand.
Head of Clinical Affairs
We are building a robust clinical pipeline and looking for an ambitious Head of Clinical Affairs who is passionate about building the early clinical strategy and putting it into action. The successful candidate will work closely with Translational Science, Data Science, Regulatory, Quality, surgical and clinical advisors, CROs and investigators. The ideal candidate will have prior experience leading multiple clinical trials from protocol development to study close out.
Senior Automation/Test Development Engineer
We are seeking a Senior Automation/Test Development Engineer to lead the development of custom test systems supporting the SOMA program at our Cambridge office.
This role will lead the architecture, hardware, software, and documentation of scalable test platforms supporting engineering characterisation, design verification, and future manufacturing needs. The successful candidate will be a hands-on engineer capable of building reliable automated systems, mentoring junior staff, and ensuring that test equipment and methods can be reproduced, controlled, and used to support regulatory submissions.
Surgical Development and Human Factors Lead
We are seeking a Surgical Development and Human Factors Lead in the Product Development group to lead the design and development of next-generation healthcare technologies. This role will focus on system integration, clinical workflows, peripheral technologies, and product realization—from early concept through to human readiness.
You will play a key role in shaping product design and driving technical decisions. You'll work cross functionally with product and clinical teams helping to design products that changes the lives of people around the world.
Expressions of Interest
We're looking for driven individuals who are passionate about pushing the boundaries of engineering and science to solve some of the most complex biological challenges. In this early-stage environment, we seek versatile team members with a hands-on approach and a willingness to learn quickly and adapt. We value diversity and encourage applicants from all backgrounds to join us in our mission.
