About The Position

Robots already work at Mayo Clinic, cleaning floors, moving laboratory specimens, and assisting in operating rooms. Over the next decade, robotics will advance from sensor-driven, single-purpose machines to AI-driven autonomous systems. Mayo Clinic intends to lead across that entire continuum. The Mayo Clinic Robotics Program exists to pioneer human-centered robotics that expands access and creates an empowered, safe, more personalized, and convenient experience for patients and staff. Within this program, the Senior Technical Business Analyst - Robotics does the groundwork that makes robotics succeed. This analyst observes and maps clinical and operational workflows, translates requirements between people and engineers, builds cost and value analyses, and documents learnings. Robotics requirements must capture the physical world, the operational tempo of hospitals and laboratories, and the human workflows a robot joins, and this analyst makes those realities explicit.
