By leveraging off-the-shelf hardware and building proprietary software for planning, control, and machine learning, the team enables high-level surgical guidance to be executed with speed and precision. This role focuses on writing robotics software—not defining control logic or algorithms—and is ideal for engineers who thrive in fast-paced, product-driven environments.

  • Support testing and deployment of new products
  • Participate in code reviews and team collaboration

Required Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Robotics, or a related field
  • Minimum 3 years of relevant robotics experience (strong coders with 1 year + internships may be considered)
  • Expertise in C++ and/or Python
  • Experience with Linux-based systems
  • Experience with cloud technologies
  • Strong software engineering fundamentals and ability to deliver production-ready code

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience with ROS/ROS2 (Robot Operating System)
  • Familiarity with Agile or Scrum development methodologies
  • Exposure to medical or healthcare technologies
  • Prior startup experience or comfort working in fast-paced environments

Additional Requirements

  • Candidate must live in or relocate to the San Francisco Bay Area
  • Candidate must be comfortable viewing real surgical procedures during onsite visits
  • Candidate must be available to travel up to once per month to customer sites
  • Not open to OPT candidates
  • Candidates with a research-heavy background and limited product delivery experience are unlikely to be a fit

Tech Stack

  • Core: C++, Python
  • Additional: ROS, React, TypeScript, Linux, Cloud platforms
