Job Description:

The Robotics and Digital solutions (RAD) group part of the Johnson & Johnson family of companies is recruiting for a Mechanical Engineer - Robotic Systems for the Ottava Team. This is a hybrid position located in Santa Clara CA.

What We Do:

The Ottava R&D team envisions a future for robotic intervention that is targeted minimally invasive and personalized. Building upon a deep understanding of patient and physician needs we are developing a platform for the next evolution of soft-tissue robotic care.

Who We Are:

We are a team of mechanical electrical mechatronics robotic controls software and clinical engineers who are passionate about improving patient care. The team includes a wide range of experience levels from junior engineers to industry experts. We follow an iterative design approach to product development that requires us to collaborate closely across clinical capital hardware and instruments & accessories teams. We value autonomy and empower each other to take action while remaining a supportive and closely knit team. We take pride in our culture and are committed to building an environment that is inclusive and promotes diversity of thought through varied experiences and backgrounds.

You:

As a member of the Ottava R&D team you will join us on our journey to design and build one of the worlds most advanced medical robotic platforms. You will work alongside all engineering functions to make significant contributions to the mechanical design of our capital hardware including (but not limited to) custom actuator design structural design and sensor development. This role offers a high degree of autonomy and opportunities for growth within the team as we progress towards realizing our vision.

Job Summary

We are seeking a Mechatronics Engineer to design develop and support electromechanical subsystems for a next-generation surgical robotic platform. This role will contribute across the full product lifecycle including concept development detailed design integration verification and support of regulated medical devices. The ideal candidate has a strong foundation in mechanical and electrical engineering hands-on experience with mechatronic systems and a passion for developing reliable highperformance hardware for use in the operating room. This position requires close collaboration with crossfunctional teams including systems engineering robotics and controls quality manufacturing and regulatory.

Key Responsibilities

  • Design and develop electromechanical subsystems for surgical robotic systems including actuators sensors motorized mechanisms and control hardware interfaces

  • Perform detailed mechanical design using CAD tools including tolerance analysis and design for manufacturability and assembly (DFM/DFA)

  • Integrate mechanical electrical and software components into functional mechatronic assemblies

  • Develop and execute verification and validation (V&V) test plans for hardware components and subsystems

  • Support prototype build integration debugging and failure analysis efforts

  • Author and maintain technical documentation in accordance with medical device quality system requirements (e.g. design inputs/outputs test reports)

  • Collaborate with manufacturing and supply chain to support transfer to production and resolve production issues

  • Participate in design reviews risk assessments and root cause investigations

  • Ensure designs meet applicable regulatory safety and reliability requirements for surgical use

Required Qualifications

  • Bachelors degree in Mechanical Engineering Electrical Engineering Mechatronics Robotics or a related engineering discipline
