At Neutron Therapeutics, we believe cancer patients deserve better treatment options and better outcomes. We are pioneering the commercialization of Boron Neutron Capture Therapy (BNCT), a groundbreaking form of radiation therapy that targets cancer at the cellular level. This innovative approach has the potential to reduce side effects, improve quality of life, and transform the way cancer is treated worldwide.
BNCT has long been the subject of promising research. Our mission is to bring this technology out of the laboratory and make it a widely available first-line treatment for patients around the globe.
In this position, you will be helping build and support sophisticated medical accelerator systems that have the potential to dramatically improve the lives of cancer patients.
POSITION DESCRIPTION
As an Electrical Engineer, you will apply electrical systems engineering principles to help develop, integrate, test, install, and support the electrical systems that are essential to our accelerator-based BNCT technology. You will work with power supplies, motors, ion sources, high-voltage equipment, particle accelerator systems, and other electrical and electromechanical components.
This position will initially report to the President and Chief Operating Officer while the team continues to develop. This is an opportunity for a recent graduate or early-career engineer who is eager to learn, tackle complex technical challenges, and grow rapidly within a high-potential medical technology startup. The role requires someone who is a self-starter, enjoys independent research, and is energized by solving difficult technical problems.
