Ready to join a team that's reimagining how we heal? Our Orthopaedics teams help keep more than 6 million people moving each year while delivering clinical and economic value to surgeons and healthcare systems. Our teams build solutions for joint reconstruction; trauma and craniomaxillofacial; sports, extremities, and elective foot and ankle; spine; and robotics and digital surgery., As a Senior Software Engineer in the Navigation R&D team, you will lead development of next generation surgical navigation and planning systems. You'll collaborate closely with a cross-functional team of systems, hardware, firmware, quality, and regulatory partners to deliver safe, reliable, and scalable software that directly impacts patient outcomes., * Build production grade on device clinical applications and services in C#/.NET for Windows and iOS targets, integrating with local and cloud services. * Experience with relational databases and embedded databases such as SQLite, including schema design, data modeling, and data normalization. Strong proficiency in writing, optimizing, and debugging SQL queries. * Develop concurrent, multi threaded components and services using REST APIs and databases, with an architecture that supports evolution and versioning. * Use secure coding principles to ensure cybersecurity and patient safety with appropriate technologies and cybersecurity processes. Examples: X.509 device identity, mutual TLS, certificate rotation, secure storage (e.g., integration with Key Vault), threat modeling, and least privilege access. * Build cloud connected backends and integrations in Azure or similar cloud environments (Functions, App Service, containers where appropriate) to support telemetry ingestion, command routing, and fleet operations. * Drive software quality through unit/integration/system tests (including hardware in the loop), profiling, observability (structured logging, metrics, traces), and CI/CD integration. * Contribute to regulatory documentation, traceability, and V&V aligned with IEC 62304, ISO 14971, and related guidance; support submissions (e.g., FDA 510(k)) as needed. * Collaborate in Agile/Scrum workflows, mentor junior engineers, and lead design/code reviews to sustain long term maintainability., Johnson & Johnson announced plans to separate our Orthopaedics business to establish a standalone Orthopaedics company, operating as DePuy Synthes.
