Open Roles
Intuitive Surgical designs and manufactures highly complex mechanical systems for use in surgery. We are looking for a hands-on, technically strong mechanical engineer to sustain and improve existing instruments to meet customer and business needs, and to support development, testing, and documentation of new product designs.
The Sr. Mechanical Engineer will focus on sustaining and improving product performance, reliability, and capacity, identifying and developing cost reductions, addressing supply chain challenges, and contributing to new product development of complex surgical instruments. The successful candidate will have the technical depth to resolve complex mechanical, materials, and manufacturing design issues.
Work individually and collaboratively within cross-functional project teams to deeply understand product performance, supply chain, manufacturing, cost, and field issues and opportunities. Design and develop mechanical parts and assemblies with careful consideration for mechanical design, kinematics, materials (plastics and metals), and manufacturability.
Create product functional requirements and design specifications. Perform design FMEA and support product risk assessments. The role requires a strong sense of ownership, shared responsibility, and commitment to high product quality.
