Overview:
The Robotics and Control Engineer will directly contribute to the development of Ronovos advanced robotic surgical system. The primary focus of this position will be the development, integration, and verification of robotic control systems based on clinical, user, and safety requirements. As a Robotics and Control Engineer, your will be driving motion control algorithms development from theoretical conception to prototyping in simulation, implementation in production software, and eventual integration and verification on hardware systems. You will also support the team in making technical decisions with analysis and experimental data.
Core Job Responsibilities:
Perform modeling and controls algorithm development for custom robots, end-effectors, and other electro-mechanical subsystems
Implement robot and servo control algorithms across subsystems
Work with clinicians and engineers to verify engineering requirements
Work in cross functional teams to support system integration and engineering verification
Other related duties as may be assigned
Required Knowledge/Skills, Education, And Experience:
Required: Master or PhD degree in control, mechatronics, robotics, or equivalent areas
Three years or more hands on experience with electromechanical system control
Demonstrated strong experience with servo and robot control algorithm development, implementation, and debugging
Demonstrated experience in electromechanical system design, integration, debugging, verification, and testing
Familiarity with electrical and mechanical principles of sensors and actuators is preferred
Familiarity with control theory and signal processing is preferred
Experience with real-time control systems software development (RTLinux, QNX, xPCTarget, etc) is preferred
