Methuen, Massachusetts, United States
Onsite
At Globus Medical, we move with a sense of urgency to deliver innovations that improve the quality of life of patients with musculoskeletal disorders. Our team is inspired by the needs of these patients, and the surgeons and healthcare providers who treat them. We embrace a culture of exceptional response by partnering with researchers and educators to transform clinical insights into tangible solutions. Our solutions improve the techniques and outcomes of surgery so patients can resume their lives as quickly as possible.
Position Summary
Our rapidly growing medical robotics division is looking for a firmware engineer who wants to make a difference. Our engineers develop surgical robots in close collaboration with top surgeons and cross-functional engineering teams. The Firmware Engineer will own embedded firmware for several surgical robotic devices and will work hands-on, with minimal supervision, alongside electrical engineers on custom PCBs.
How We Build Firmware
Our firmware is written in Rust, using Embassy on STM32 (Cortex-M), inside a shared framework whose crates are also used in our desktop software. All code lands through pull requests with code review, is built and tested in CI, and carries near-complete unit test coverage: hardware-facing code is isolated behind mocked interfaces so that all control and business logic runs and is tested on the host. You will develop new devices on this common codebase, maintain existing ones, and be expected to work within the framework and improve it.
Primary Responsibilities
Required Qualifications
What We Will Teach You
Embassy and async Rust on embedded targets, our framework and shared crates, our CI/CD pipeline, and the IEC 62304 development process. Open-source contributions or personal embedded Rust projects are welcome as evidence of interest and are a strong plus at any experience level, including recent graduates.
Preferred Qualifications
Not a Fit
This role is not suited to candidates who prefer vendor IDE-centric workflows without version control, automated builds, or automated tests.
