Managing Staff Mechanical Engineering

Job Description Managing Staff, Systems Mechanical Engineering At Intuitive, we’re transforming healthcare through innovative robotic surgical platforms that enhance patient outcomes and redefine surgical care. Our team is a passionate, cross‑functional group pioneering surgical robotics platforms. We’re seeking a Managing Staff Mechanical Engineer to lead system mechanical engineering efforts for novel robotic capital equipment design in an exciting new clinical application. Why Join Us? Lead the end‑to‑end development of groundbreaking surgical robotic system hardware — from concept and prototyping through manufacturing and commercialization. Collaborate closely with clinicians and interdisciplinary teams (software, electrical, controls) to deliver innovative, integrated solutions. Drive technical strategy and provide hands‑on leadership in a fast‑paced, entrepreneurial environment. Take part in early architecture decisions and help determine the shape of a new system and product portfolio that will reduce surgical invasiveness and improve patient outcomes worldwide. Key Responsibilities: Manage and mentor a small, high‑performing team of mechanical engineers focused on robotic systems for minimally invasive surgery. Operate with a “player‑coach” approach, tackling challenging technical problems yourself with creativity, rigorous engineering analysis, and an exemplary rapid design iteration process. Oversee all phases of mechanical design, from prototype development to testing and through validation to ensure robust, reliable products. Lead cross‑functional projects, balancing scope, schedule, budget, and risk to deliver on aggressive development goals. Contribute to the identification and execution of strategies for product development, regulatory submissions, and intellectual property creation. Foster a culture of innovation, quality, and continuous improvement within the team and across functions. Act as a key technical resource, resolving complex design and manufacturing challenges while integrating multidisciplinary inputs. Represent the team’s progress and risks to senior leadership, driving transparent and proactive communication. #J-18808-Ljbffr Intuitive
