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

Surgeons need to see clearly in order heal their patients. Surgeons use the daVinci Surgical System for extended continuous duration under the intense stress of a surgical environment. Visual clarity and precise representation of the surgical field along with ease of use and optical comfort across the broad spectrum of surgeons are pillars of Intuitive’s vision products. The Optical Engineer will utilize creativity and sound engineering judgment in the design of medical capital equipment components for volume manufacturing processes. The Optical Engineer is expected to use modeling and analytical skills to conceptualize, develop, and verify new optical components and sub-systems in the Intuitive Surgical Viewer. This position will be responsible for key system components and will interface with suppliers and manufacturing to build high-quality hardware prototypes and productize new designs. The Optical Engineer should be capable of making sound decisions when faced with the time constraints and ambiguous or incomplete information typical of research and development. It is desired that this position maintain an awareness of developing optical imaging techniques related to surgical imaging, augmented reality, and human perception. This role will provide critical technical assistance when working with outside development partners for custom components and sub-assemblies. Our development partners should know about and share in Intuitive’s mission so they can feel and understand the need for high quality and operational excellence. Strategic development of the supply chain must be a priority.

Qualifications

Skill/Job Requirements:

Masters Degree with 8 years of experience or PhD with 5 years of experience in Optical Engineering or Sciences, EE or Physics, with 3 years of display or optical industry experience
Skill in the use of at least one standard optical CAD package such as Zemax or Code V
Experience in optical and opto-mechanical tolerance analysis
Experience in designing molded plastic optics and light pipes, using non-sequential ray trace CAD tools
Familiar with light sources such as LEDs and laser diodes and designing optics to process those light sources
Understanding of standard lens fabrication technologies and their limits
Strong analytical skills and the ability to meaningfully engage deeply technical individual contributors on specific activities
Experience in practical lab methods to test optical phenomena associated with light sources, spatial light modulators, and complex optical systems
Experience in data acquisition methods for gathering critical empirical data on prototypes of 3D display systems
Basic familiarity with human visual perception, sources of visualize discomfort in 3D vision systems and evaluation methods
