Electrical Engineer II
As an Electrical Engineer II, you will take ownership of various sections of the hardware that runs our robotic device. You will work closely with the Electrical, Embedded and Mechanical Engineers to specify and design solutions to complex real-world problems.
As part of the Electrical Engineering team, you will perform tasks that are needed to advance the project from prototype to product release. Work consists of circuit design, simulation, writing of test procedures, data measurement and testing and debugging of electronic hardware that runs our robotic device. Previous experience bringing a product through regulatory stages and into production is a huge plus!
Vicarious Surgical’s novel approach to surgery uses a combination of proprietary, human-like surgical robots and virtual reality to transport surgeons inside the patient when performing minimally invasive surgery.
This is a terrific opportunity for an early career Electrical Engineering professional to join our company at a very exciting time and be a key member of a team that will bring our robotic solution to the market, offering a cost-effective path to improving patient outcomes and increasing the efficiency of surgical procedures for hospitals.
