Overview

da Vinci is the world's leading robotic surgery platform. I built mobile tools for surgeons to track procedures, manage OR schedules, and analyze surgical outcomes across thousands of hospitals globally.

The Challenge

Hospitals have unreliable WiFi, and surgeons needed real-time data in the OR. The existing web app was slow and couldn't handle offline scenarios. Security requirements for HIPAA compliance were extremely strict.

The Solution

Built an offline-first architecture using WatermelonDB for local storage with conflict-free sync. Implemented OKTA authentication with biometric unlock. Created a custom drag-and-drop system for OR room management.
