Scientific Instrumentation Software Engineer
Job Description
The Opportunity
We are looking for a hands-on Scientific Instrumentation Software Engineer to build the systems that connect advanced laboratory hardware, experimental workflows, and scientific data into a reliable, usable platform. In this role, you will design and develop Python-based software for instrument control, experiment orchestration, data acquisition, visualization, and desktop tools used directly by hardware, research, and data teams.
You will work at the intersection of software, hardware, and science, helping transform early laboratory prototypes into robust systems that can support repeatable experiments and scalable development. This includes building abstraction layers over vendor SDKs and device APIs, coordinating multiple instruments with precise timing and triggers, creating user interfaces for technical operators, and developing logging and validation tools that improve confidence in experimental results.
