About Mantyx
Mantyx is at the forefront of innovation with its AI-powered surgical co-pilot, designed to enhance surgical intelligence. Combining advanced computer vision and surgical phase recognition, Mantyx delivers real-time, procedure-aware insights to optimize outcomes for surgical teams. By integrating live video, device signals, and clinical expertise, Mantyx ensures a patient-centric approach across every stage of surgery — from pre-operative planning to post-operative analysis.
We are now introducing AI in robotic surgery through a smart assistant that brings scattered information to the surgeon's fingertips via a voice-controlled interface — improving patient outcomes, sharpening surgical focus, and increasing hospital efficiency.
Your Role
As our Platform Engineer, you will lead the technical architecture and backend development of our AI-driven infrastructure. You will be the engineering backbone behind our surgical co-pilot, working at the intersection of cutting-edge AI and real-world clinical deployment.
Concretely, you will:
Design and implement scalable compute systems spanning cloud and on-prem environments to support our surgical co-pilot
Develop core services for data ingestion, orchestration, and analytics — helping our software interpret live video, audio, and text with high accuracy, resource efficiency, and low latency
Support integration of advanced AI pipelines — including phase recognition, lens-stain minimization, and autonomous documentation — into production environments
Ensure interoperability between data platforms, APIs, and EHR systems for seamless data flow
Collaborate across disciplines with our team of MDs, PhDs, and seasoned entrepreneurs to align technical solutions with clinical needs
Uphold high standards for security and reliability, essential for software targeting FDA and MDR medical device certification
