About the role

  • Design and develop software in Simulink that enables surgeons and operating-room staff to control “Hugo”; a Robotic Assisted Surgery System.
  • Integrate and test new controller software on hardware and with the rest of the robotic platform.
  • Contribute to the development of model based control system for Hugo.
  • Partner with the greater software organization, systems engineering, and validation groups.
  • Define and review software requirements.
  • Conduct hardware-in-loop testing of prototype as well as product software.
  • Act as an independent reviewer of Simulink models to ensure that all software meets quality standards.
  • Prepare and participate in design reviews.
  • Document or participate in the documentation of the software including architecture and design detail, unit testing, anomaly tracking and reports.

Requirements
