Software Engineer (Linux & Connectivity)

Sentante is building infrastructure for remote surgery that does not yet exist anywhere in the world. The engineer who joins now will design systems that connect a surgeon to a patient across a network - in a hospital that could not otherwise perform the procedure.

You will help ensure our product meets high standards of reliability and safety.

About the role

We are looking for a Software Engineer to own the infrastructure that connects, secures, and maintains Sentante systems in the field. You will build and manage the Linux-based server environment, design connectivity solutions between system components and remote sites, implement secure OTA update pipelines across deployed units, and ensure surgical data is received, stored, and transmitted securely.

This is a high-ownership role in a small, senior team. Your work will run in hospital environments where reliability and security are non-negotiable.
