Primary Function of Position

Systems Analysts (Robotic Control Engineers) are primarily responsible for generating, tuning, and debugging the key algorithms associated with Intuitive Surgical products and providing technical analytic assistance to other engineering groups. As a member of the Systems Analyst team working on the Ion Endoluminal System (Intuitive's platform for minimally invasive biopsy in the peripheral lung), you will work on both robotic algorithms and the development of tools and software infrastructure that support those algorithms. The successful candidate will have the technical depth to manage deep analysis problems and the ability to work in an interdisciplinary team to drive future designs and improvements into the product.

Roles & Responsibilities

• Evaluate complex electro-mechanical devices for dynamic safety and clinical risk.
• Design software algorithms for new products and existing field products.
• Design software tools and infrastructure that enable research and development of new algorithms.
• Perform comprehensive testing to ensure the quality and performance of algorithms.
• Facilitate mechanical, hardware, and software integration of new products.
• Document and pursue intellectual property.
• Improve group workflow through building tools and teaching others.
• Support and track system performance as it moves from design to manufacturing.

Qualifications
