Software Engineer (C++/multi-threaded programming)

As a Software Engineer you will be working on calibration algorithms, efficient inter-process data-transport, improving test coverage, code-quality and improving the architecture. The work requires understanding of software engineering, mathematics, affinity with hardware and the application software. We are looking for engineers eager to learn our sophisticated code base, want to understand the science required and implement the data processing and control in product quality code.

The Senior Software Engineer will be part of a quality-driven team in the Image Acquisition and Detection Software group. The group develops acquisition, control, and data processing production software in a multi-disciplinary setup, across multiple international development sites.

You will be part of an imaging and acquisition team of approximately 9 engineers, working closely with architects, and the various other software teams. Furthermore, you will be intermediary between SW architects and the engineers in the team to make the right technical decisions. You will be responsible for new feature developments on a Windows platform. Your initiative is appreciated in this role and you will work in a highly innovative setting. The cool part is that you can test your developed SW in real-time on our products.
