We anticipate the application window for this opening will close on - 19 May 2026

 

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. In-person exchanges are invaluable to our work. We’re working a minimum of 4 days a week onsite as part of our commitment to fostering a culture of professional growth and cross-functional collaboration as we work together to engineer the extraordinary.

         

         

As a Software Engineer II - Core Infrastructure (Python/C++) you'll be joining the team that builds the foundation everything else on the Affera Prism Mapping system runs on — the runtime, services, IPC, device communication layer, and data pipelines that connect hardware to algorithms, visualization, and UI. As an SWE II, you'll own well-scoped pieces of that foundation: a service, a data path, a device interface, a piece of tooling. You'll write Python and C++ on Linux, learn how the system fits together end-to-end, and debug across process boundaries with mentorship from senior engineers — shipping code that clinicians depend on. 

 

 About the Affera Prism Mapping System 

The Affera Prism Mapping System is an advanced electrophysiology mapping platform used by physicians to diagnose and guide the treatment of cardiac arrhythmias. It captures and processes signals from inside the beating heart, builds detailed real-time three-dimensional maps of cardiac anatomy and electrical activity, and presents that information to clinicians and mapping specialists during live procedures. Engineers on this team build the software that makes that possible — from the runtime and data pipelines that move signals in milliseconds, to the algorithms that turn raw signals into clinically meaningful information, to the visualization and UI surfaces clinicians rely on in the lab. 

 

Primary Responsibilities 

• Implement and maintain platform infrastructure components — services, IPC, device interfaces, data pipelines — in Python and C++ on Linux. 

• Help integrate hardware components and device firmware interfaces into the production software stack. 

• Own moderately scoped features or components and deliver end-to-end. 

• Make routine technical decisions within established team guidelines. 

• Contribute to subsystem design discussions and implementation planning. 

• Debug issues across components, with guidance as needed. 

• Participate in code reviews, integration, testing, and technical documentation. 

• Build understanding of broader system interactions and interfaces. 

 

 

Required Qualifications 

• Bachelor's degree and a minimum of 2 years of relevant experience 

• OR Master’s degree with a minimum of 0 years of relevant experience
   

Preferred Qualifications 

• Experience with Linux systems programming — processes, threading, IPC, networking. 

• Strong programming skills, understanding, and knowledge of Python/C++ or equivalent. 

• Ability to contribute in a mixed Python/C++ with Qt/QML environment. 

• Solid foundation
