About the position

As a Senior Robotic Engineer within our R&D organization, you'll play a crucial role in shaping the future of healthcare through our next-generation robotic platform. Your expertise will drive model-based design using Simulink and MATLAB, supporting the development, testing, and validation of complex subsystems for our medical robotics system. This role is ideal for an R&D engineer experienced in hardware, real-time control systems, and accurate computer modeling. You will be responsible for defining features, creating requirements, and developing tools within our EVR quality management system. Collaboration with fellow engineers will be essential as you build and implement simulation models for our intricate medical robotics system. You will conduct feasibility studies, design analysis, and product testing using Simulink (including Simulink Real Time) and MATLAB, validating models using lab test data to ensure precise electrical simulations. Additionally, you will resolve design interface and integration issues related to electrical components, document best practices for efficient model-based design, and maintain code libraries to support modular design. Adhering to disciplined test, configuration control, and documentation processes will be critical, as will supporting cross-functional technical and process improvement projects.
