Senior Staff Robotic Platform Engineer

Job Description

• Build and use tools (Matlab, Python, Monte-Carlo, FEA, Minitab, etc.) to simulate accuracy of the Mako surgical robotic platform and localization system. Apply statistics approaches to data to compare simulated accuracy result to requirement.
• Lead technical integration of devices to be used to improve robotic platform accuracy.
• Apply advanced engineering theories to develop concepts while establishing methods to prove concept feasibility.
• Create and assess performance of algorithms (optimization, calibration, accuracy check) used in robotic surgery.
• Lead the effort to define an accuracy budget, negotiate with stakeholders allowed errors to the system, platform, and components.
• Design and execute tests and tools (hardware, software, data post processing) to measure accuracy.
• Consider cross-functional needs (clinical, marketing, sustaining) to ensure successful transition of accuracy-related concepts from feasibility to product launch.
• Identify and assess new technologies and capabilities (prototyping, testing) to improve robotic surgery accuracy.

Qualifications

• Required Qualifications:
• Bachelor's degree or higher in Mechanical Engineering, Robotics, Software Engineering, Controls/Systems Engineering, Biomedical Engineering or any related discipline
• 6+ years of related work experience
• MATLAB, Python, C++, and CAD proficiency
• Experience in assessing, integrating, and developing electromechanical components and assemblies, with familiarity in system processes related to mechatronics, localization, and/or robotics
• Basic robotics control understanding

• Preferred Qualifications:
• Experience formulating design requirements and creating pre-Verification accuracy test protocols for electro-mechanical systems
• Application of statistics to refine and assess large data sets
• Practical application of linear algebra and kinematics to robotic and localization systems
• Algorithm development, especially for robotics, sensors, or anatomy registration
• Clinical operating room and cadaveric testing
