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.

Job Description

Primary Function of Position The Human Factors Design Engineer (HFDE) is part of the Human Factors (HF) organization that aims to maximize usability and desirability of Intuitive products while minimizing risk through scientific research and usability engineering. Broadly, HFDE is focused on research and design within product development of new robotic systems, instruments and accessories. This role is more exclusively focused on Human Robotic Interaction Research, Neurorobotics, and Neural Interfaces. HFDE helps de-risk design strategies within product development through a range of formative research activities and hands-on design engineering activities that inform the definition of user requirements and user interface design requirements underlying the user experience of Intuitive products. HFDE conducts research that is focused on the psychology, biomechanics, and physiology of end users’ underlying performance associated with robotic teleoperations. This position will generate evidence to provide strategic insight into “what”, “why”, and “how much” end users differ in learning and performance across a range of products. This role functions in ambiguous and strategic stages of product development that involve the ability to position and conduct experimental research within a business. This role demands extensive follow-through to translate, communicate, ideate, prototype, and build novel evidence-based strategies, tools, and concepts that operationalize and inform the “intuitiveness” of commercialized and future products. This role demands quick changes in direction with capacity to define and implement strategies that have visibility across business units while maintaining focus on tactical details. This role is a unique engineering and scientific opportunity with the expectation that knowledge and skills can be applied to experimental behavioral and neuroscientific research that actionably informs product design strategies for future development, inform product development, and establish product claims with state-of-the-art human-robot interfaces. The HFDE position reports to a Manager within the broader HF organization at Intuitive. Essential Job Duties

Apply deep expertise in robotics, HRI, and mixed-methods research to identify unmet user needs, performance limitations, and opportunities for future product innovation.
Independently generate, prioritize, and communicate actionable design insights that shape product strategy, influence development priorities, and advance human factors capabilities.
De-risk design strategies focused on the analysis of human performance, workflow, and usability factors, while identifying and mitigating systemic usability risks across product lines.
Serve as the human factors lead for complex initiatives, partnering with engineering, product management, quality, and regulatory teams to drive usability-centered design decisions.
Influence product and business decisions by balancing user needs, safety, usability, technical feasibility, and organizational priorities.
Lead the definition and management of usability design inputs across robotic systems, instruments, and accessories, translating research findings into actionable user and interface requirements.
Conduct literature reviews that justify research strategy and study design
Conduct experiments end-to-end ranging in scale and complexity, including data processing and analysis from multimodal data capture
Translate scientific evidence to a range of internal and external stakeholders into actional recommendations for product design strategies, product requirements, or product claims
Develop and evaluate conceptual prototypes that communicate design strategies, performance considerations, and future product concepts.
Data extraction, transformation, processes, analysis and visualization with multiple data sources from biometrics, psychometrics, and system data logs from lab-based experiments and field-based experiments
Prototype and iterate on designs, develop tests, and deliver high-quality software in Python or C++ required for ML performance modeling
Manage updates on systems configurations for reliable data capture pipeline from lab-based and field-based experiments
Build and validate experimental conditions within virtual and physical environments
Develop and validate novel and OTS bioinstrumentation and psychometrics that can be implemented in experiments to reliably measure individual differences related to human performance
Author and maintain early stage human factors engineering deliverables, ensuring compliance with design controls, usability engineering processes, and regulatory requirements. Mentor peers and project teams in applying HF methodologies, frameworks, and best practices while fostering innovation through the integration of user insights and cross-functional expertise.
