Senior Project Manager - Surgical Robotics / Digital Surgery

Profile

**Careers that Change Lives**
Digital Surgery is a data-driven company implementing AI technology, computer vision, and augmented reality in the operating room (OR) and surgical training. Our first OR device allows surgical videos to be uploaded shortly after a procedure, using advanced AI automatic processing. We also provide award-winning, accessible surgical training on our Touch Surgery application, for surgeons and other healthcare professionals.
Here at Digital Surgery, we have the best of both worlds. We operate within a small team, whilst having the security and benefits of a big company. We run like a tech start-up company, but back in February 2020, we were acquired by the worlds leading medical device company, Medtronic. Since then we have continued to succeed and grow, hiring over 100 people during the pandemic.
This Senior Project Manager position will be a key member of the Surgical Robotics PMO team. This project management position will coordinate and organize various efforts as the core team leader on several projects for the Digital Surgery business within the Surgical Robotics Operating Unit.
