About the role

Our client is a Stockholm-based deep tech company aiming to transform the data generation in sequencing completely through their patented 3-D sequencing, a truly disruptive technology. They combine single molecule imaging, fiber optical gratings technologies and nano-fluidics to read DNA faster than anyone else.

As a C++ Developer, you will play a pivotal role in advancing our client's next-generation DNA sequencer. This position offers a unique opportunity to contribute to a groundbreaking product, working collaboratively within a dynamic and multidisciplinary team that spans biochemistry, hardware, and software.

You are offered

• To be part of a unique journey to create the next generation of DNA sequencing
• To work in an international and multidisciplinary team
• A long-term position with good development opportunities

Work tasks

This role encompasses designing, developing, and maintaining high-performance software in C++ for both graphical user interfaces and hardware-close systems within a Linux environment. It also involves significant contributions to image processing and data analysis for advanced genomic applications.

In this role, you will have the opportunity to work closely with hardware development teams, contributing to projects that bridge the gap between software and physical systems. You’ll be involved in areas such as computer vision and image processing, where a solid understanding of these technologies will be beneficial. The position also touches on DevOps practices, helping to streamline development workflows and improve system reliability. Familiarity with the Qt framework is advantageous, as is a good grasp of operating systems, memory management, and multithreading. You’ll be part of an agile development environment, using version control tools like Git to collaborate effectively. Depending on the project, you may also engage in system development, embedded systems —making experience in any of these areas a valuable asset.
