Staff Engineer - Systems Design - Surgical Planning

Work Flexibility: Hybrid

What you will do:

• •Lead the system design and technical realization of Hip Surgical Planning capabilities from concept through product release and lifecycle management.
• •Understand Hip implant design philosophies and CAD models , translating implant geometry and surgical intent into planning workflows, including planar and volumetric haptics .
• •Apply knowledge of CT, X-ray and MRI to develop image-based approaches for patient anatomy visualization, measurement, implant positioning and surgical planning.
• •Translate user, clinical and business needs into system and subsystem requirements , specifications, interfaces and traceability.
• •Perform system decomposition and allocate requirements across software, imaging, algorithms, robotics, implants and hardware .
• •Lead system architecture, feasibility studies, design trade-offs, technical/design reviews and integration activities.
• •Ensure requirements and system design are correctly implemented by multidisciplinary development teams and the Agile Release Train.
• •Drive Design for Quality, Reliability, Safety and Serviceability and lead system-level safety/risk-management activities for regulated medical devices.
• •Participate in surgeon engagements and cadaveric evaluations , translating clinical feedback into requirements and design improvements.
