It started with a simple idea: what if surgery could be less invasive and recovery less painful? Nearly 30 years later, that question still fuels everything we do at Intuitive. As a global leader in robotic-assisted surgery and minimally invasive care , our technologies—like the da Vinci surgical system and Ion —have transformed how care is delivered for millions of patients worldwide. We’re a team of engineers, clinicians, and innovators united by one purpose: to make surgery smarter, safer, and more human. Every day, our work helps care teams perform with greater precision and patients recover faster, improving outcomes around the world. The problems we solve demand creativity, rigor, and collaboration. The work is challenging, but deeply meaningful—because every improvement we make has the potential to change a life. If you’re ready to contribute to something bigger than yourself and help transform the future of healthcare , you’ll find your purpose here. Primary Function of Position Join a team of Manufacturing Engineers pushing the frontiers of minimally invasive robotically assisted surgery by advancing production processes for Endoscope Instruments and (/or) Endoscope Controllers. Refine the process architecture for optimal reliability, quality, and cost. This Manufacturing Engineering role is responsible for developing lean manufacturing processes and the associated documentation. Essential Job Duties * Contribute to a collaborative team, which is focused on continuous improvement * Employ Design for Manufacturing/Assembly (DFx) to develop optimal product architecture in terms of reliability, quality, and cost. * Specify, design, document, and procure the equipment necessary to perform each process step. * Plan, budget, and provide the production equipment necessary to meet manufacturing capacity requirements. * Define lean manufacturing process flows to maximize production efficiency. * Author process FMEA’s to identify and address potential manufacturing d
