Sr Principal Product Security Engineer

We anticipate the application window for this opening will close on - 6 Dec 2025.

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.

The Sr Principal Product Security Engineer plays a critical role in ensuring the security of Medtronic Surgical Operating Unit medical device solutions. Reporting to the Director of Product Security, this role drives the integration of advanced cybersecurity measures, identifies and mitigates potential vulnerabilities, and supports initiatives that improve cyber‑resiliency throughout the product lifecycle. You will serve as a technical subject matter expert and mentor, collaborating across teams and contributing to long‑term improvements in our security posture.

In this engineering‑focused role, you will join a world‑class team of systems, mechanical, electrical, software, and quality engineers within Medtronic’s Surgical Operating Unit (OU). The Surgical OU brings together the people and portfolios of Surgical Robotics and Surgical Innovations to advance surgical care through robotics, surgical energy technologies, and digital solutions.

This role focuses on cybersecurity for medical devices and embedded systems. It is not an IT security, compliance, or GRC‑focused position. The ideal candidate will have deep experience working with engineering teams to integrate cybersecurity into real‑time systems, embedded firmware, connected devices, or other product‑level security contexts.

With the Medtronic Mission as our North Star, we build on our legacy of proven surgical solutions and continue advancing the promise of robotics and digital technologies to improve outcomes for our customers and patients.

This is an onsite role and can be located in our London office or one of these US based office locations:
Boston, MA, Lafayette, CO, Minneapolis, MN, or North Haven, CT with a strong preference of Boston or Lafayette.

Make your impact by exploring a career with the world’s leading Medical Device company, striving “to alleviate pain, restore health, and extend life.”
