We are looking for an experienced and ambitious instrument control software engineer to join our instrument software team. We are developing advanced life science research instruments that combine precision hardware control, imaging, and automation. Our software is at the intersection of control systems, hardware communication interfaces, distributed services, and Linux applications. This complex system requires experienced software engineers to maintain and improve existing code, as well as enable us to continue scaling the capabilities and throughput of our instrument platform as we develop future generations of instruments.
