Join our R&D ENT Navigation team and contribute to the next generation of surgical navigation technology. In this role, you will help shape innovative solutions on a new navigation platform and tracking technologies currently under development, combining advanced electromagnetic and optical tracking with modern software engineering. You will develop image-guided surgery applications used by clinicians worldwide to improve precision and patient outcomes in ENT procedures. Working at the intersection of software, hardware, and clinical application, your contributions will directly influence the future of surgical navigation. As part of a highly collaborative R&D environment, you will be involved throughout the full product lifecycle - from early concept and system design to implementation, verification, and regulatory-compliant release. You will work closely with interdisciplinary teams across Brainlab and external collaborators.
