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.
Primary Function of Position:
We are seeking a Sr Software Engineer to join the Intraoperative Intelligence Group at Intuitive Surgical. The Sr Software Engineer will work on developing and deploying products that help us invent the future of intelligent robotic surgery. This position is primarily responsible for handling deployment and integration of Machine Learning algorithms with the da Vinci® platform.
Job Description:
You will be joining a team of Machine Learning engineers/scientists who are developing models that will run on the da Vinci® surgical robot. The Sr Software Engineer will be a hands-on developer who will help this team by writing C++ applications that run these models, connecting them to data streams from the robot and helping other teams process the model outputs. The engineer will have to learn the various software libraries used on the da Vinci as well as gain an understanding of how the robot functions on an system/architectural level so that they can complete these tasks. The engineer should also be comfortable using a Linux command line and be able to understand and use build systems used to program the da Vinci® surgical robot.
Skill/Job Requirements:
Intuitive Surgical is a leading biotech company specializing in robotic-assisted minimally invasive surgery devices like the da Vinci system.
