Original job description

Company Description It started with a simple idea: what if surgery could be less invasive and recovery less painful? Nearly 30 years later, that question still fuels everything we do at Intuitive. As a global leader in robotic-assisted surgery and minimally invasive care, our technologies - like the da Vinci surgical system and Ion - have transformed how care is delivered for millions of patients worldwide. We’re a team of engineers, clinicians, and innovators united by one purpose: to make surgery smarter, safer, and more human. Every day, our work helps care teams perform with greater precision and patients recover faster, improving outcomes around the world. The problems we solve demand creativity, rigor, and collaboration. The work is challenging, but deeply meaningful - because every improvement we make has the potential to change a life. If you’re ready to contribute to something bigger than yourself and help transform the future of healthcare, you’ll find your purpose here.

Design components and produce mechanical drawings in a government regulated environment for volume manufacturing processes, which may include cast metal, injection molded plastic, sheet metal stamped, and others
Perform various types of detailed engineering analyses (tolerance stack, process simulation, structural FEA) to ensure fit/form/function of complex tooled parts
Work with supplier engineering to identify, develop, and implement alternate part fabrication methods and sources to reduce hardware cost and/or improve strength of supply chain
Develop and execute design verification/validation test protocols and document results in test reports
Provide mechanical engineering support for resolution of field and manufacturing issues
Support product risk assessments, Corrective and Preventive Actions, and quality/regulatory audits as required
Provide advice, mentoring, and guidance to advance the technical and business expertise of colleagues

Proven ability to identify issues, bring clarity and transparency, and lead a team effectively to appropriate product solutions
Comfortable with all phases of the product development lifecycle including design, implementation, debug, verification, qualification, and transfer to Manufacturing.
Proven proficiency at failure analysis
Demonstrated mechanical design and analysis skills, including statics, dynamics, kinematics, strength of materials and stress analysis
Strong understanding of component selection criteria and materials as they relate to design and manufacturability
Experience with design for reliability, manufacturability, and assembly
Comfortable operating machine shop, measurement and test equipment
Ability to communicate effectively (written, oral) across all levels and organizations
Ability to mentor other engineers
Ability to travel up to 10% time
A real excitement to learn and get to the bottom of tough technical problems
Passion for solving difficult technical challenges
