Company Description
It started with a simple idea: what if surgery could be less invasive and recovery less painful? Nearly 30 years later, that question still fuels everything we do at Intuitive. As a global leader in robotic-assisted surgery and minimally invasive care, our technologies—like the da Vinci surgical system and Ion—have transformed how care is delivered for millions of patients worldwide.
We’re a team of engineers, clinicians, and innovators united by one purpose: to make surgery smarter, safer, and more human. Every day, our work helps care teams perform with greater precision and patients recover faster, improving outcomes around the world.
The problems we solve demand creativity, rigor, and collaboration. The work is challenging, but deeply meaningful—because every improvement we make has the potential to change a life.
If you’re ready to contribute to something bigger than yourself and help transform the future of healthcare, you’ll find your purpose here.

Coordinate and oversee CROs and vendors, including scope-of-work support, budget tracking, deliverable review, and issue escalation
Drive achievement of study milestones by ensuring timely site activation, high-quality data collection, protocol compliance, and completion of key study deliverables according to established timelines
Coordinate study equipment deployment, shipment, tracking, maintenance, and site logistics in partnership with internal technical and field teams
Support site management activities, including site communications, site onboarding and training, query resolution, and ensuring timely data entry and documentation
Ensure trial compliance and data quality, supporting adherence to protocol, GCP/ICH, applicable regulations, and internal quality standards
Contribute to SOPs and process improvements related to site management, monitoring practices, TMF oversight, and data collection workflows
Identify and escalate operational risks/issues early, propose mitigations, and drive actions to resolution across the study lifecycle
Cross-Functional Collaboration & Study Support
Partner with Regulatory, Quality, R&D, Biostatistics/Data Science, and Medical Affairs to ensure operational plans align with study objectives
Support development and maintenance of key trial documents (as applicable), such as:
monitoring plans, vendor plans, enrollment plans
site training materials
study trackers and status dashboards
Provide clear, regular study status updates to internal stakeholders, highlighting progress, risks, and decisions needed
Qualifications
Qualifications:
3+ years of hands-on clinical trial operations experience in medical devices or diagnostics with increasing responsibility in trial delivery
Experience coordinating multi-site studies and working effectively with CROs and external vendors
Working knowledge of GCP/ICH, essential clinical trial documentation, and clinical quality expectations (e.g., TMF completeness, monitoring oversight, audit readiness)
Strong project management skills (planning, prioritization, stakeholder management) with the ability to drive execution in a fast-paced environment
Education: Bachelor’s degree required in life sciences, biomedical engineering, clinical research, or related field; advanced degree a plus
Preferred Qualifications:
Experience in medical imaging, digital pathology, or image-based clinical workflows
Exposure to AI-enabled medical devices (including data collection considerations and performance evaluation concepts)
Experience supporting reader studies (site/readers coordination, logistics, training, and data flow)
Experience supporting prospective studies in the OR or procedural settings
