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. Were 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. The Future Forward organization is Intuitive’s advanced concepts group. We explore emerging technologies, prototype next-generation solutions, and build software experiences that shape the future of robotic-assisted surgery. 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

The Future Forward group within Intuitive Surgical is searching for a hands-on Staff Mechanical Engineer to own subsystem development for a new application of surgical robotics. This role is an exciting opportunity to join a small and innovative team in the early phases of product development. Joining Intuitive Surgical means joining a team dedicated to using technology to benefit patients by improving surgical efficacy and decreasing surgical invasiveness, with patient outcomes as our highest priority. The successful candidate will have both the technical depth to resolve complex mechanical, materials, and manufacturing design issues, and the ability to work in an interdisciplinary team to troubleshoot to root cause higher level system issues. They must excel in a high-energy, focused, small-team environment, and have a commitment to high quality prototypes and concepts and a demonstrated record of developing creative and innovative engineering solutions. A strong sense of shared responsibility and shared reward is required as well as a commitment to high product quality.

Roles and Responsibilities:

Own end-to-end development of subsystems within a novel robotic platform.
Work in small cross-functional project teams to discover, define, and develop requirements.
Contribute to system and build planning, owning your milestones and pulling with the team to accomplish meaningful goals as a team.
Use first principles to design and document components and subsystems. Own building, testing, and understanding your designs.
Design, develop and troubleshoot testing fixtures and test methods
Test product prototype designs, critically analyze results, and make design changes or recommendations to the design team
Provide written protocols, reports, and presentations related to design activities on an ongoing basis
Collaborate with other engineering disciplines (software, electrical, clinical, and manufacturing) on the design of robotic surgical instruments and related systems
Create and maintain SolidWorks CAD databases, including assemblies, components, and detailed drawings
Observe clinical cases and interface with clinical experts to inform designs and identify user needs
Document, prepare, and review patent submissions
Provide support for pre-clinical and clinical labs

Qualifications

What You Bring:

BS or MS in Mechanical Engineering or related engineering or scientific discipline, or equivalent work experience
Typical minimum 12 years of relevant experience (Medical device and/or robotics experience preferred)
Demonstrated ability to work in cross-functional research and development teams
Proficiency using CAD (SolidWorks preferred)
Demonstrated ability to design for manufacturing and assembly (DFx)
Able to independently assess complex problems and situations to move projects forward
Able to coordinate activities within organizations to drive deliverables
Excellent documentation and communication skills
Experience with design standards (ex. FDA QSR 21 CFR Part 820, ISO 13485, IEC 60601)
Experience with GD&T and other related ASME/ISO drafting standards
Familiar with all phases of the product development lifecycle including design verification, design validation, and design transfer
Familiar with Product Lifecycle Management documentation control systems
