Primary Function of Position

As a Senior Software Engineer, you will work on the design and development of system software and digital applications for the latest hardware targeting end-users involved in surgical robotic procedures. The successful candidate must excel in an agile, focused, small-team environment and commit to high-quality research prototypes and supporting infrastructure. A solid sense of shared responsibility and shared reward is required.

Essential Job Duties

This position is responsible for all aspects of system software development, associated tooling, and infrastructure to explore and build a novel telesurgery system.
Design, build, debug, and deploy real-time applications using C, C++, C#, Matlab, and Python on platforms like Linux, Windows, and real-time operating systems.
Develop a modular, robust, fail-safe, ultra-low latency embedded streaming application.
Build compelling prototypes to demonstrate the technical feasibility and to define the product roadmap.
Construct a software pipeline to transmit real-time audio, video, and system data, and integrate it with backend systems, APIs, and services.
Participate in software architecture discussions, code reviews, and user studies design.
Responsible for unit testing and integrating the code for function testing, robustness, and reliability.
Cross-functional requirements discussions, ranging from customer-facing clinical needs to safety requirements.
Translating early requirements into prototype implementations to evaluate and assess a novel and sophisticated robotic system.
Apply good software engineering practices to write elegant, maintainable, reusable code.
Create documentation for the developed features and techniques that were tried, rejected, or implemented.

Required Skills and Experience

Proven track record in building real-time embedded systems, real-time applications, and/or embedded software.
Experience with industrial embedded OS (e.g., Yocto, QNX) and cross-compilation is a plus
Demonstrated proficiency in C, C++, C#, Python, and MATLAB.
Experience with multi-threaded and multi-processor/multi-core systems.
Comprehensive knowledge of audio, video codecs, and secure streaming protocols to build a highly reliable and mission-critical system subjected to changing network conditions.
