About the Role

We are seeking a highly skilled and experienced Senior Software Engineer with a strong background in edge device software, automation, and hardware-software integration. You will work at the intersection of mechanical systems, computer vision, and software, developing the control and automation layer for our medical devices.

Our devices are connected, edge IoT instruments: they run a stack of containerized Python services on Linux, are deployed and managed remotely across a fleet, and coordinate motion control, cameras, computer vision, and a web-based touch UI to carry out delicate lab procedures. This is a hands-on engineering role where you will write code that moves real hardware—stepper motors, precision linear stages, cameras, and microfluidic systems—while also building the software infrastructure around it.

Responsibilities
- Develop and maintain automation software for the precision instruments used in IVF procedures
- Integrate and control motorized stages, stepper motors, and encoders through serial and digital interfaces




- Build and optimize computer vision pipelines for real-time image analysis (object detection, segmentation, tracking)
- Design and implement containerized microservices using Python, Docker, and MQTT for device orchestration
- Build and maintain remote deployment, monitoring, and update workflows for a fleet of edge devices
- Work closely with hardware and electronics engineers to define and refine HW-SW interfaces
- Contribute to system calibration routines, motion planning, and closed-loop control logic
- Deploy and maintain software on Linux-based edge and server platforms
- Mentor junior engineers and contribute to technical decision-making
- Stay up-to-date with emerging technologies and recommend adoption where relevant

Qualifications

Required
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Mechatronics, or related field (or equivalent experience)
- 7+ years of professional experience in softwa
