This role ensures that system architecture, performance targets, and integration decisions meet clinical, technical, and regulatory requirements. This role requires regular presence in procedural environments to observe system use, evaluate workflow integration, and identify real-world performance constraints. This individual operates at the intersection of imaging systems, tracking technologies, and procedural workflow across subsystems and development phases.Principal Responsibilities
- Define and maintain system-level performance requirements (accuracy, latency, registration robustness, visualization fidelity)
- Translate upstream product requirements into measurable engineering specifications.
- Evaluate and challenge architectural decisions proposed by internal teams and external partners
- Guide integration of data from imaging modalities into 3D modeling workflows.
- Evaluate segmentation fidelity and model accuracy constraints.
- Establish and monitor error budgets across imaging, tracking, and rendering pipelines.
- Oversee integration of tracking systems (EM/IMU/visual or hybrid approaches); assess registration methods and alignment verification strategies under real-world surgical conditions.
- Attend and observe live procedures to evaluate system behavior under real surgical conditions; Translate OR observations into measurable engineering refinements.
- Partner with clinical stakeholders to capture nuanced failure modes and edge cases.
- Provide technical arbitration between product intent and implementation feasibility.
- Support development of system requirements, risk management (design and use FMEA, clinical hazard analysis), and traceability matrices.
- Serve as technical SME in regulatory discussions related to system claims and performance validation.
- Maintain internal technical ownership of system-level decisions.

- Direct involvement with surgical software integrating imaging and/or tracking.
- Experience working within FDA Class II (or equivalent) regulated environments is required.
- Experience overseeing or collaborating with external development partners.
- Experience supporting or evaluating medical devices in live clinical environments is required.
- Experience with ultrasound-based workflows or ultrasound-based systems development
- Experience integrating EM, IMU, or optical tracking systems.
- Experience with image registration and real-time 3D visualization.
- Familiarity with operating room/office procedure room constraints (video feeds, HDMI routing, workflow timing).
- Direct experience observing or supporting image-guided or endoscopic procedures
- Experience troubleshooting system performance during live clinical use.
- Demonstrated ability to translate real-world procedural variability into engineering constraints.
