Job Description
Primary Function of Position
Robotic Algorithms and Controls Engineers (Systems Analysts) at Intuitive perform a central role in the design development and support of new products in the daVinci Surgery product lines. Robotic Algorithms and Controls Engineers are primarily responsible for the telerobotic motion & force control algorithms robotic manipulator control and safety algorithms for new surgical robots instruments accessories and endoscopes. This responsibility crosses into mechanical software control user interface electrical and safety engineering where all the subsystems are integrated together. Robotic Algorithms and Controls Engineers strive to provide early design input quickly prove out new designs and seek out solutions to subtle and challenging problems in system integration system safety and motion & force control. Responsibilities continue until the products are shipping to customers with the highest quality and reliability.
The Manager of a Robotic Algorithms and Controls Engineering (Systems Analysis) team establishes team member responsibilities within their team towards projects needing motion & force control algorithms and safety systems. They are responsible for tactical milestones for the projects their team supports. They advise senior management on the technical strategy for a product or a platform project. They maintain working liaison with other Robotic Algorithms and Controls Engineering teams software & hardware teams manufacturing teams and user facing & clinical engineering teams to enable cohesion of design inputs design architecture specifications and verification. They are expected to hire coach and retain Robotic Algorithms and Controls Engineering talent within their group.
Essential Job Duties
- Manage/support a team of Robotic Algorithms and Controls Engineers towards successful accomplishment of product implementation with bestinclass solutions and architectures
- Provide indepth research and characterization of electromechanical architectures during the entire design life cycle.
- Facilitate mechanical electrical and software integration of new prototypes and new products including complete robotic systems manipulators instruments accessories and endoscopes
- Examine complex electromechanical devices for dynamic safety and clinical risk
- Implement safety monitoring algorithms based on sound physics and risk analysis
- Participate in clinical observations and experiments to ensure that performance requirements are relevant and realistic
- Adhere to and contribute to design control processes including design reviews presentations documentation and verification and validation testing activities
- Document and pursue intellectual property
- Communicate system architectural choices to the cross functional engineering team
