Software Engineer – Connectivity in Cell Factory Systems (m|f|d)

For more than 30 years, we have been developing innovative medical devices to empower biomedical research and advance medical treatments. This is how we are pushing the boundaries of cell and gene therapy and personalized medicine. 
To realize our vision we combine sophisticated research with advanced engineering solutions in agile software development, data science, internet of things, artificial intelligence and connectivity. Today, more than 4,700 experts from over 50 countries contribute to breakthrough innovations and sustainable success.   

You will be part of our bold global vision to create a state-of-the-art-solution connecting our instrument portfolio according to cutting-edge IoT & connectivity technology to break the boundaries of modern cell production. You will help build a feature-rich cockpit that makes information available on a wide range of end devices, also outside the lab. In your individual role and as an integral part of an agile team, you will take technical responsibility for our Cell Factory Software.

• You will provide technical guidance on all matters related to “connectivity software development” and be the “gateway” between our software architect and our developers by translating concepts into code.
• By coaching your team members on technical questions, you will help them find appropriate solutions for connecting and synchronizing internal and external software systems and find answers to development issues.
• As a role model, you will stay on top of new technologies and explore them in a playful way. You will improve and continually develop new functionality for our connectivity devices, write clean, maintainable and scalable code in C++ and share your knowledge with the team.
• You will also develop and maintain APIs, protocols and data formats to ensure compatibility between different software systems.
• Our departments are highly interdisciplinary. You will therefore also work together with other units, such as IT, Quality, Service or Marketing as well as in international teams, which will allow you to constantly broaden your professional horizon.

• You have successfully finished your academic education in Computer Science, Natural Science (e.g. Bioinformatics, Mathematics, Physics, Statistics) or similar.
• You have at least three years of professional experience in a role similar to the one described above. You have an excellent understanding of service-oriented software development and experience in developing software for connectivity, integration or synchronization.
• Furthermore, you need to have exceptionally good knowledge of modern C++ (preferably C++17 or newer) and be interested in continuing to develop in this language.
• Ideally, you have knowledge of the following technologies: Typescript, Go, message-based systems like NATS or MQTT, cloud technologies and container orchestration platforms like Kubernetes. However, we are also open to candidates who are eager to learn these technologies.
• You have excellent problem solving and communication skills, fluent English (at least on level B2), German would be a plus. Your agile mindset enables you to break down requirements and design them into manageable increments and pieces.
