Logic Supply Jobs (NOW HIRING)

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.

• Drive stabilization and continuous improvement of component material planning processes (i.e. coverage profile, lead time, lot sizing, strategic reserves, etc.), translating policy into durable execution.
• Identify and close systemic gaps in execution and process capabilities, including definition of roles, operating models, and escalation paths.
• Serve as the senior counterpart to partner functions, aligning priorities, resolving ownership ambiguity, and enabling faster, more coordinated execution.
• Translate strategic supply chain objectives into executable roadmaps, programs, and projects, balancing nearterm issue resolution with longerterm capability needs.
• Mentor and develop other leaders and high potential contributors, scaling organizational capability and reducing dependency on adhoc or herodriven execution.
