Job description

We anticipate the application window for this opening will close on - 28 Sep 2026 Careers that change lives start here. Medtronic is a global leader in healthcare technology with a Mission to alleviate pain, restore health, and extend life. Our 95,000 employees work across more than 150 countries to put patients first — developing innovative medical technologies that improve the lives of 72+ million patients each year. Your unique talents will help shape the future of healthcare while building a career grounded in purpose, growth, and impact.

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 – UI/UX (Qt/QML) You will own significant features and workflows in the Prism Mapping application UI — the surfaces clinicians use during procedures and case review. A typical week mixes deep Qt/QML and C++/Python implementation, partnership with UX designers translating Figma designs into responsive production interfaces, integration work with the visualization, signals, and infrastructure teams, and the kind of debugging that happens when application state, real‑time data, and human interaction all collide. You’ll make architecture decisions about UI state, data binding, and interaction patterns; mentor newer UI engineers; and set the standard for what a high‑quality, clinically‑safe interface looks like in our product.

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

• Own significant UI features and clinical workflows in Qt/QML.
• Make architectural decisions on UI state, data binding, threading between UI and real‑time data, and interaction patterns.
• Partner closely with UX designers to translate designs into responsive production interfaces.
• Own features, components, or subsystems end‑to‑end.
• Determine the technical approach for complex component‑and subsystem‑level problems with limited supervision.
• Lead development across design, implementation, integration, and support for assigned areas.
• Contribute to software architecture, design improvements, engineering practices, and development processes.
• Provide technical leadership through code reviews, mentoring, and guidance.
• Collaborate effectively across software, systems, hardware, and quality in a regulated environment.
• Communicate technical issues, tradeoffs, and recommendations clearly to team members and stakeholders.

Required Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree and a minimum of 4 years of relevant experience OR Master’s degree with a minimum of 2 years of relevant experience OR PhD with 0 years relevant experience

Preferred Qualifications

• Strong production experience building application UIs in Qt/QML.
• Experience building real‑time or data‑rich interfaces.
• Strong understanding of UI architecture: state management, data binding, threading between UI and real‑time data.
• Strong Python and/or C++ expertise, with a track record of delivering production software.
• Experience building large, complex software applications or subsystems.
• Experience with Linux, networking, and multi‑device or distributed systems.
• Experience with Docker, CI/CD, and automated testing.
• Strong debugging and problem‑solving skills, including the ability to work effectively with ambiguity and incomplete information.
• Experience contributing to architecture, design standards, or technical direction within a team or subsystem.
• Experience collaborating across cross‑functional teams in a regulated or quality‑driven environment.
• Sets standards and best practices for effective use of AI development tools on the team.
