Sonic Summary

info
  • The job involves running human-subjects recording sessions, including participant preparation and data documentation.
  • Candidates should have hands-on experience in acquiring physiological or imaging data from human participants, with a focus on attention to detail.
  • The position requires basic scripting skills in Python or a strong motivation to learn, alongside a commitment to participant operations and data hygiene.
  • The role emphasizes the importance of professionalism and discretion, as parts of the program are not public.
  • The salary is competitive, and a minimum of two years of relevant experience is required.

What you'll do

  1. Run human-subjects recording sessions end-to-end: participant prep and fitting, sensor configuration and calibration, stimulus delivery, real-time signal monitoring, and session documentation.

  2. Own daily system QC for a one-of-a-kind sensing instrument: baseline noise recordings, per-sensor health checks, log review, and escalation of anomalies before they touch a dataset.

  3. Own participant operations: recruitment coordination, scheduling, screening, consent, and compliant handling of participant records.

  4. Stand up and maintain the operational backbone of the program: SOPs for acquisition, QC, and participant workflows — documentation that survives you.

  5. Handle first-pass data operations: file conversion, organization, metadata, and quality review in Python.

  6. Partner daily with the program lead to refine acquisition protocols and improve system performance over time.

What we're looking for

  • Hands-on experience acquiring physiological or imaging data from human participants in a clinical or research setting

  • Obsessive consistency and attention to detail: you notice when something is off and you don't let it slide.

  • Professional, patient, and calm with research participants — sessions succeed or fail on how people feel in the room.

  • Basic scripting ability (Python and/or shell) for QC and data-handling tasks, or clear aptitude and motivation to build it.

  • High ownership of the unglamorous parts: scheduling, documentation, tidy data hygiene.

  • Discretion — parts of this program are not yet public. We'll walk you through the specifics, including the exact technology you'd be operating, in the first conversation.

Useful experience

  • Controlled or low-noise recording environments and highly sensitive instrumentation.

  • Physiological signal-processing tools in Python.

  • Human-subjects research administration (IRB protocols, consent workflows).

  • Research studies involving structured tasks or sensory protocols with human participants.
