Job Description
The Embedded Platform Software team designs and builds the foundational software infrastructure for next-generation surgical robotic systems. We are looking for a high-energy, talented Senior Software Engineer to join the Embedded Networking Software team, within the Multiport Platform Software group.
We are a small group that works in a focused, high-energy environment working on New Product Development. We believe in applying first principles thinking, data driven decision making, continuous learning, and systematic planning to deliver results and achieve our goals.
Are you passionate about technology?
Do you want to have a direct impact on helping people live better lives?
Are you interested in the medical applications of robotics?
Do you like to build complex distributed systems?
Does working in a multidisciplinary, systems-oriented design team sound exciting?
Your Role
You will be a technical leader on the team developing our flagship product, dV5. The team's focus is to enhance and extend the dV5 robotic embedded network across all 7 Open Systems Interconnect (OSI) layers and apply that deep understanding to new surgical robotic systems. You will own the architecture, set the multi-year technical direction, and grow the engineers around you.
Your Responsibilities
In your first year in this role, you will:
Design, develop, and deliver features, own some architectures across the embedded network stack and help define the technical roadmap across:
Reliability, including redundancy and fault tolerance strategies
Performance architecture for growing data transfer needs: low latency switching, traffic shaping, queue management
A distributed publish/subscribe messaging framework built on DDS-style middleware
Layer 5 Session APIs for seamless disconnect and reconnect of services and network nodes
Set the technical direction and standards for Layer 2/Layer 3 software, Ethernet MAC and PHY drivers, and deterministic real-time paths for safety critical data, applying queueing theory
Lead design and code reviews, mentor senior and mid-level engineers, and raise the bar on design quality and debugging rigor while staying hands-on in the highest-risk code
Serve as the technical authority on hardware integration, and lead escalations on the hardest hardware-software networking failures (JTAG, GDB, protocol analyzers)
Drive alignment across cross functional teams such as Application Development, Algorithms, FPGA, Electrical, Clinical, and Manufacturing to negotiate requirements and resolve architectural tradeoffs
Influence build-versus-buy, vendor silicon, and middleware selection, and make the case for investments that retire technical debt
