R&D Market Engineer

Overview

Embark on an enriching journey with PROCEPT Bio Robotics, where our vision, mission, and values guide everything we do. We put the patient first in everything we do and are committed to revolutionizing treatment for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) through innovation in surgical robotics. As our company grows, we aim to improve the quality of life for patients, provide more effective treatment options for surgeons, and uphold the trust of our shareholders.

We are focused on creating an evolving landscape for your career with transformative opportunities that provide continuous growth.

This amazing opportunity in the R&D department puts you in charge of projects focused on market engineering for the robotic system. The work here makes a real difference to PROCEPT’s product cost and quality; it will require innovation, creativity, solid engineering skills, robust testing, and clear documentation. You will regularly collaborate with other organizations including quality, manufacturing, supply chain, regulatory, and the clinical groups.

Your work is critical in providing a safe, precise, and high-value product for our customers. You will be working with both internal engineering, failure analysis, production, and external teams such as commercial and field service.
