• JOB218194

### Company Description

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.

### Job Description

Primary Function of Position

As a Staff Data Scientist – Simulation Motion AI, you will lead the design of scalable simulation-data systems used to train, evaluate, and improve robotic policies for complex, safety-critical motion AI products. You will work alongside foundation and policy model teams, test, regulatory, product and clinical teams to generate data, train and test algorithms in simulation at scale for motion AI products.
