Clinical-stage neurotech company building implantable vision, cognition, and mobility devices
Science is a clinical-stage medical device company developing implantable systems to restore vision, cognition, and mobility. The stack is deeply embedded: Linux, C/C++, Verilog, SystemVerilog, FPGA, ASIC, and custom silicon (NXP i.MX, RISC-V). Active infrastructure migration—adopting Terraform, Ansible, Docker, Synapse—paired with hiring across engineering, manufacturing, healthcare, and quality suggests transition from early R&D into scaled manufacturing and regulatory compliance. Projects cluster around silicon tapeout, optical interconnects for brain interfaces, and regulatory strategy, indicating a company navigating first-of-its-kind device launches.
Notable leadership hires: Marketing Director
Science develops implantable medical devices for patients with debilitating conditions lacking treatment options. The company operates at clinical stage with hardware spanning vision restoration, cognitive support, and mobility recovery. Alongside its core product pipeline, Science runs Foundry, a vertical component and infrastructure business serving other neurotech developers. Headquartered in Alameda, California, with offices in Paris and active hiring across Australia, France, Germany, and the US, the company is scaling manufacturing, regulatory, and quality functions to support regulatory submissions and first-generation device launches.
Embedded Linux, C/C++, Verilog, SystemVerilog, FPGA, ASIC, NXP i.MX, RISC-V, UEFI, and custom silicon design tools (Yocto, U-Boot, Buildroot). Also uses Solidworks for mechanical design.
Novel optical interconnects for brain interfacing, cell-device hybrid development, regulatory strategy, tapeout and chip bring-up, and technology transfer from R&D to manufacturing. Also developing Synapse SDK for ecosystem partners.
