Field Services Engineer III - Nevada (Las Vegas / Henderson / Reno)
MedtronicAbout the role
At Medtronic you can begin a life-long career of exploration and innovation, while helping champion healthcare access and equity for all. You’ll lead with purpose, breaking down barriers to innovation in a more connected, compassionate world.
A Day in the Life
At Medtronic, we bring bold ideas forward with speed and decisiveness to put patients first in everything we do. This position is remote to enhance our competitive edge and expand our cross-functional collaboration efforts. This role will require 50% of travel to enhance collaboration and ensure successful completion of projects. Candidates local to Nevada are preferred.
In this exciting role as a Field Services Engineer, you will be supporting maintenance and repairs of The Mazor™ robotic guidance system and The O-arm™ surgical imaging system within our Surgical Solutions Portfolio for spinal and cranial procedures.
You’ll play a critical role in supporting clinicians and ensuring patients have access to the technology they depend on.
