Job Description
Primary Function of Position
Intuitive Surgical Inc. produces the da Vinci Surgical System a minimally invasive robotic surgery system that uses highly complex mechanics replaceable instruments and accessories and enhanced threedimensional visualization to extend surgical technique and precision beyond the limits of the human hand. The Senior System Algorithm Engineer will strive to create the safest and highest quality devices for minimally invasive surgery though rigorous and robust technical analysis. They must excel in a highenergy team environment and be a quick learner. The successful candidate must have exceptional technical depth in system dynamics algorithms and controls required to support the development of surgical devices for the da Vinci Surgical System.
Essential Job Duties
- Represent Design Engineering on crossfunctional project teams that design develop and test next generation robotic surgical products.
- Design and implement new electrosurgical energy algorithms and controls based on tissue characteristics and energy modes with a first principles understanding of complex system dynamics.
- Work closely with the Electrical Software and Mechanical instrument engineering teams to design features and algorithms to implement requirements iterate through prototypes analyze performance and ensure design outputs are successfully integrated into effective system designs.
- Modify and tune the algorithms to optimize analog and digital signals to ensure consistent performance in the clinical environment.
- Develop simulation and characterization methodologies to model system dynamics behavior and performance.
- Support robotic instrument and capital equipment development across multiple platforms.
- Perform risk analysis and implement safety algorithms. This includes documentation of risks requirements and test protocols to support requests for approval by regulatory agencies such as the FDA.
- Work closely with Clinical Development engineers to understand intended use and refine algorithm design.
- Provide engineering support for resolution of field and manufacturing issues.
Qualifications :
Skills and Experience
- MS or PhD preferred (EE or CS preferred). Minimum 5 years of electrosurgical system dynamics algorithm design and development in Matlab C C or equivalent experience.
- Knowledge of classical and modern control systems.
