We are a healthtech company specialized in the development of advanced robotic surgery systems for high-precision minimally invasive procedures. Founded in 2012 as a spin-off from UPC and IBEC, our mission is to make robot-assisted surgery more accessible, precise, and efficient worldwide. We are building next-generation surgical robotic platforms, and instrumentation is a critical part of our core technology.
Your mission
As a Senior Systems / Test Engineer you will be responsible for defining, building and validating custom test benches used to characterize robotic surgical instruments. This is a key role inside our R&D team, directly connected to product performance, safety and regulatory evidence.
You will translate instrument requirements into test systems that allow us to understand, measure and validate real-world behaviour of robotic surgical tools, ensuring reliability in clinical use scenarios.
Your main responsibilities
* Translate robotic surgical instrument requirements into test bench specifications
* Define and lead validation protocols for instrumentation (force, hysteresis, fatigue, offset, grasping performance, stiffness, distal vs proximal behaviour)
* Design, build and validate custom test rigs for robotic surgery systems (mechanical + instrumentation + calibration)
* Execute and analyse performance and reliability testing.
* Generate technical documentation for regulatory submissions in medical devices
* Ensure traceability, calibration control and continuous improvement of testing systems used in surgical robotics
* Act as a key link between design engineers and validation teams in iterative development cycles
* Support risk analysis with experimental data from testing
What are we looking for?
* Degree in Mechanical, Industrial, Biomedical Engineering or similar
* 5+ years of experience in V&V / testing, ideally in robotic systems
* Strong hands-on experience with test benches or rigs (preferably in robotics or surgical systems)
* Solid understanding of mechanical testing, materials behaviour, fatigue and reliability
* Knowledge of ISO 13485 / ISO 14971 and validation processes (IQ/OQ/PQ)
* Experience with data analysis (Excel;
Python or MATLAB is a plus)
* English professional level (technical documentation)
* Spanish native or fluent
We are looking for someone who is...
* Previous experience in robotic surgery, medical robotics or high-precision xpzdshu robotic systems
* Hands-on, pragmatic and problem-solver by nature
* Comfortable working in a fast-paced
* Able to connect mechanical design with experimental validation in complex robotic systems
* Analytical, structured and detail-oriented
Nice to have
* Sensorised / hybrid robotic test benches
* MATLAB or Python for data analysis
* Exposure to MDR / CE marking in medical devices
* Iterative design–test–learn development environments
What do we offer?
* Full-time permanent contract
* Competitive salary aligned with experience
* Flexible working hours
* Highly innovative and regulated environment with real impact on patients' lives
* Strong engineering culture inside a surgical robotics company developing real medical robotic systems
