Embedded Software Verification Engineer – Surgical Robotics

Philips•Cambridge, MA

1d•Hybrid

About The Position

Contribute to the development of a breakthrough robotic surgery platform by verifying embedded, real-time software that powers core robotic functions. Collaborate closely with embedded software, systems, controls, and hardware engineering teams to investigate, reproduce, and document defects and to improve test coverage. Influence a high-impact clinical product while growing your verification expertise in robotics and image-guided therapy within a global health-technology organization based in Cambridge, Massachusetts.

Requirements

2+ years of experience verifying embedded software for real-time systems (individual contributor role; no people leadership required).
Strong C++ programming skills and a solid understanding of embedded software architecture and constraints.
Practical experience with real-time operating systems (RTOS), embedded Linux, hardware-in-the-loop testing, and building automated and semi-automated test frameworks (e.g., Python plus embedded toolchains).
Comfortable interpreting requirements, producing traceable verification evidence, and working in regulated, multidisciplinary development environments.

Nice To Haves

Experience with medical devices, safety-critical systems, robotic motion control, or troubleshooting sensors/actuators is a plus.

Responsibilities
