Software Engineer Intern (Robotics)

As a Software Engineer Intern on the Robot Software Team, you will be responsible for writing software and making sure your code works on an actual surgical robot, not just simulation

Our robotics integrate actuated devices with microelectromechanical systems as well as novel surgical procedures

These applications place strong emphasis on high-precision, high-repeatability mechanical motion, as well as high reliability and fail-safe design

Develop safety-critical software for the robot; you are responsible for contributing directly to surgery-ready software as an intern

Take ownership of a project that is integral to robot functioning from design to implementation under the guidance of a robot software team member

Jump on problems when they arise with a strong bias for action to support robot operation by non-software teams

Work across different engineering disciplines; your software may involve interactions with the mechanical, electrical, biological, and neuroscience teams

Evidence of exceptional ability in engineering or computer science

Experience in writing performant applications in a system language like C, C++, and Rust

Ability to work on mission-critical and safety-critical systems

Strong bias for action and first principles thinking

Experience working in a high-precision environment

Experience working on medical robots

Experience in kinematics and motion planning

Experience in computer vision

Experience coding in Linux and debugging on Linux systems

Hands-on experience with robotics or high-reliability systems
