Mechanical Engineer

Founded by Dr. Jonathan Rothberg in 2011, Butterfly Network is a digital health company with a mission is to democratize medical imaging by making high-quality ultrasound affordable, easy-to-use, globally accessible, and intelligently connected, including for the 4.7 billion people around the world lacking access to ultrasound. Butterfly created the world's first handheld single-probe, whole-body ultrasound system using semiconductor technology, Butterfly iQ.

The company has continued to innovate, leveraging the benefits of Moore's Law, to launch its second generation Butterfly iQ+ in 2020, and third generation iQ3 in 2024 - each with increased processing power and performance enhancements.

The disruptive technology has been recognized by TIME's Best Inventions, Fast Company's World Changing Ideas, CNBC Disruptor 50, and Med Tech Breakthrough Awards, among other accolades. With its proprietary Ultrasound-on-Chip™ technology, intelligent software, and educational offerings, Butterfly is paving the way to mass adoption of ultrasound for earlier detection and remote management of health conditions around the world.

Joining Butterfly is the opportunity to redesign the future of healthcare through the power of technology. Embark on a journey with us to maximize global impact, motivated by the idea that our products will change the lives of millions, along with the people you love.

As a member of the mechanical product development team, you will have the opportunity to use your creativity and diverse range of mechanical design experience to reinvent and influence the future of ultrasound technology. You will work as part of a cross-functional team to deliver highly refined and clinically impactful imaging solutions. As an experienced Staff Mechanical Engineer, you drive the design, analysis, and prototyping of new concepts to prove out designs and scale those concepts in volume manufacturing.

You are expected to be independent, driven, and passionate about designing a high-quality product.
