CPT Clinical Systems Analyst Jobs
Clinical Systems Analyst roles sit at the intersection of healthcare operations and health IT, making them a strong CPT fit for students in health informatics, biomedical informatics, or health information management programs. Your DSO must authorize CPT specifically for this role, and the work must connect directly to your program's curriculum.

Emeryville, California | Internship
Proposed base compensation. Final terms are subject to Astera’s hiring process.
Position Summary
Help us build and compare the systems that allow robots to move and adjust their working height. Under engineering mentorship, you will prototype wheeled mobile bases and lifting platforms, run hands-on experiments, and evaluate how different designs perform under realistic operating conditions. Starting with our existing hoverboard hub motors and other motorized wheel hardware, you will help explore different wheel and drivetrain configurations. You will also help develop and evaluate lifting platforms, comparing commercially available mechanisms and custom prototypes. Your work will help the team select practical designs based on measured performance, reliability, cost, and ease of integration.
Core Responsibilities
- Evaluate wheeled platforms. Assemble and modify mobile bases using hoverboard hub motors, hub motor wheels, and conventional motor-driven wheel assemblies. Help design and fabricate chassis, mounts, and supporting components. Compare navigation performance of different systems.
- Compare wheel and drivetrain configurations. Develop repeatable tests to evaluate maneuverability, low-speed motion, traction, payload handling, power consumption, steerability and general performance across relevant floor surfaces.
- Prototype lifting platforms. Help assemble, adapt, and test different lifting mechanisms, such as scissor lifts and telescoping lifting columns. Integrate actuators, guides, mounts, and supporting structures.
- Evaluate lifting performance. Compare lifting range, speed, positioning repeatability, rigidity, and stability under defined loads. Investigate vibration, mechanical play, and other issues that affect reliable operation.
- Integrate controls and measurements. Configure motor controllers, connect position and speed feedback, and develop simple control and data-collection scripts. Help implement travel limits, homing, and coordinated motion under engineering supervision.
- Document comparisons and improve designs. Maintain CAD files, wiring diagrams, parts lists, and test records. Summarize tradeoffs and work with engineers to refine promising designs.
- Keep experimental hardware ready. Organize components, tools, and spares; maintain prototypes and test fixtures; and assist with equipment inspections, repairs, and experiment setup.
Required Qualifications
- Coursework, projects, or practical experience in mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, robotics, mechatronics, or a related discipline.
- Experience building and troubleshooting a physical system through coursework, research, student teams, or personal projects.
- Basic familiarity with mechanical assembly, electrical wiring, motors, and sensors.
- Interest in hands-on prototyping and systematic testing, including careful measurement and documentation.
- Comfort working with an engineering mentor and contributing to the upkeep of a shared robotics lab.
Preferred Experience
- CAD, 3D printing, machining, or fabrication of mechanical prototypes.
- BLDC motors, motor controllers, encoders, wheeled robots, or drivetrain design.
- Linear actuators, screw drives, scissor lifts, lifting columns, or other positioning mechanisms.
- Python, C/C++, microcontrollers, or basic feedback control.
- Building test fixtures, collecting experimental data, or comparing hardware designs.
Prior experience with every technology listed is not expected. We value curiosity, practical problem-solving, and an interest in understanding how different mechanical systems perform through real experiments.

Get Access To All JobsClinical Systems Analyst CPT: Frequently Asked Questions
Does Clinical Systems Analyst work qualify as an integral part of an F-1 curriculum?
It depends on your program. Health informatics, biomedical informatics, health information management, and some computer science programs explicitly include clinical systems or EHR implementation work in their curriculum. Your DSO determines eligibility based on how the role connects to your specific degree requirements, not just the job title. Bring the offer letter and a job description to your DSO meeting so they can make that connection clearly.
Can I do CPT for a Clinical Systems Analyst role at a hospital vendor rather than a hospital itself?
Yes. CPT authorization covers the work, not the employer type. A health IT vendor that implements EHR platforms, builds clinical decision support tools, or manages interoperability projects can qualify as a CPT employer as long as the work aligns with your curriculum. Your DSO will need the vendor's job description and may ask for documentation showing how the role ties to your coursework.
What happens if my CPT end date falls before my Clinical Systems Analyst project wraps up?
You'd need a CPT extension before your current authorization expires. Extensions require your DSO's approval and must still be tied to an active, eligible academic program. Many health system implementation projects run six to twelve months, so plan your CPT authorization window to match the project timeline from the start, not just the initial contract period.
How do I find Clinical Systems Analyst employers who are already familiar with CPT hiring?
Migrate Mate lets you search Clinical Systems Analyst roles filtered by employers with documented DOL work authorization filing history in health IT. That history signals that the employer's HR and legal teams have already navigated work authorization paperwork and won't be caught off guard by your CPT EAD documentation during onboarding.
Does full-time CPT as a Clinical Systems Analyst affect my OPT eligibility?
Yes. If you complete 12 months or more of full-time CPT, you lose eligibility for OPT entirely. Part-time CPT, defined as 20 hours per week or fewer, does not count against your OPT. If you plan to use OPT for post-graduation employment or an H-1B visa cap-gap, structure your CPT authorization as part-time or keep the full-time period under 12 months total.
