About Paradromics

Brain-related illness is one of the last great frontiers in medicine, not because the brain is unknowable, but because it has been inaccessible. 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. 

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.

The Role

Paradromics is seeking a Project Manager to join our Engineering team and serve as a steward of the company’s cross-functional project portfolio. This role will support projects across the full development lifecycle—from early-stage planning and scoping through detailed execution, hand-off, and closure—ensuring predictable, compliant, and on-time delivery in a highly technical, regulated environment.

The ideal candidate is a servant leader who thrives at the intersection of engineering, operations, manufacturing, and quality, and who can adapt their project management approach to meet projects where they are while driving them to completion.

Responsibilities

• Own and manage assigned projects across multiple stages of development, tailoring planning and execution rigor to project maturity.
• Develop and maintain detailed project plans with a focus on schedule adherence, dependency management, risk mitigation, and design control compliance.
• Facilitate cross-functional communication among engineering, operations, manufacturing, and quality teams to ensure alignment and timely hand-offs.
• Track and report project status, risks, and changes to scope or timeline, including performing impact analysis and managing change control.
• Coordinate with external suppliers and partners to align outsourced work with internal milestones and deliverables.
• Lead effective project meetings, phase reviews, and retrospectives to promote accountability, transparency, and continuous improvement.
• Contribute to and help lead improvements to Paradromics’ project management processes, tools, and governance.

Required Education

• Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Science, Business, or a related field (or equivalent practical experience)

Required Qualifications

• 3-5 years of project management experience on technically complex, cross-functional projects
• Demonstrated success leading and coordinating multidisciplinary teams
• Strong working knowledge of project planning, scheduling, risk management, and execution tools (e.g., project plans, Gantt charts, risk matrices)
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to lead meetings and synthesize complex information
• Proven ability to manage change, resolve conflicts, and mediate between stakeholders in a professional and constructive manner

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience managing projects in a medical device, biotech, or similarly quality-regulated environment
• Familiarity with FDA 21 CFR 820.30, ISO 13485, and ISO 14971
• Experience with both traditional (waterfall) and Agile project management methodologies
• Hands-on experience with MS Project, Smartsheet, or similar project management software
• Experience working in or closely with in-house manufacturing or operations teams
