Staff Software Engineer Embedded UI

Company Description

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.

Job Description

Primary Function of Position: As a Staff Software Engineer Embedded UI on the Future Forward team, you will develop innovative digital solutions to extend Intuitive’s robotic product lines. Collaborating with experts in robotics, imaging, and software, you will build innovative and Intuitive digital interfaces for novel robotic platforms. This role spans the entire development cycle—from prototyping approximate requirements to delivering high-quality production code.
