Job Description

Primary Function of Position:

As a Navigation Software Engineer within the Future Forward engineering team, you will join a small team of experts in the fields of robotics and medical imaging. You will collaborate and contribute to the conceptualization, design, and evaluation of new solutions for medical image analysis and computer vision to support a novel robotic system, taking algorithm concepts from initial prototypes to production software.

The primary function of this position is to design and implement a variety of software components as part of the Future Forward algorithms and software team. You will take on projects with broad technical scope, covering robotics, medical imaging, computer vision, computer graphics, and machine learning.

The ideal candidate is a self-directed and fast-paced engineer with excellent problem-solving skills, who can translate rough and approximate requirements into working prototypes, to arrive at high quality, complete solutions, through methodical iterations. This position will require close collaboration with cross-functional teams, including but not limited to product development teams, clinical team, systems analysts, design team, quality, and regulatory teams.

Quick learning and a desire to understand requirements from both an engineering and user perspective are essential to become a valuable navigation software engineer. A sense of shared responsibility and shared reward is required.

Your responsibilities will encompass all aspects related to the navigation software stack, ranging from the development and evaluation of medical computer vision and machine learning models for supporting key intraoperative tasks, to designing computer graphics content to improve how information is communicated to users via a graphical user interface. You will understand the system from both a technical perspective and from the user's viewpoint, and drive definition and development of algorithms and accompanying interfaces to improve our user experience.

Essential Job Duties

This position has responsibility for all aspects related to the navigation software of robotic surgical systems and instruments. Specifically, the Navigation Software Engineer is responsible for:

  • Contributing to the development of state-of-the-art computer vision and machine learning algorithms for supporting physicians in the use of a robotic system while navigating complex 3D anatomy.
  • Examining and improving the efficiency, scalability, and stability of various computer vision and machine learning models to meet the constraints of medical applications.
  • Collaborating closely with designers, clinical engineers, and other software developers to integrate medical computer vision models into user-friendly applications.
  • Defining high-level requirements and architecting clean software interfaces for a distributed robotic system.
  • Participating in failure mode analysis to identify and implement robust hazard mitigation strategies.
  • Refining prototypes to production-quality level software.
