Job description

Work Flexibility: Hybrid
What You Will Do:
We are looking for a Senior Staff Engineer to support Digital, Robotics, and Enabling Technology. This research and development role will lead efforts to define, simulate, test, and improve the accuracy performance of our Mako robotic system, which includes a robot arm and optical tracking module. Your responsibilities will include translating user needs into design accuracy specifications and leading the effort to allocate and decompose accuracy requirements on multi-disciplinary concepts using modeling, simulation, budgeting, and mathematical techniques. You will design and implement algorithms and technology onto our robotic system to ensure arm calibration, pre-surgery accuracy checks, and intra-operative checks result in an accurate clinical outcome. By partnering with internal and external stakeholders, you will drive technical strategies that meet clinical needs and enhance the company's performance through innovative solutions.
This role is hybrid with the expectation to be on-site in Weston, FL, 3 days a week.
  • 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.

What You Will Need:
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

  • $118,000 - $196,700 USD Annual
