Secaucus, New Jersey. This role will require the person to work on‑site due to the nature of the work.

We offer competitive benefits including medical, dental, vision, a matching 401-K plan, paid vacation, sick and holidays, tuition assistance, and commuter benefits.

We are seeking a motivated and innovative Software Engineer to design, develop, and implement software for advanced automated metrology systems. The ideal candidate will collaborate with mechanical and electrical engineers to ensure seamless integration of systems, from initial concept to final production, and participate in research and product development. This role involves processing and analyzing large datasets, implementing machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms, and programming interfaces with complex automated instruments.

• Design, develop, and maintain scalable software frameworks for metrology applications, including Windows-based applications.
• Develop and execute automated test scripts to ensure system performance.
• Write code for image and data analysis to extract relevant metrology information.
• Perform statistical analysis on metrology data to correlate with performance metrics.
• Work with APIs and SDKs from various metrology hardware and software manufacturers to integrate different components into a single, coordinated system (e.g., vision systems, optical instruments, robotic arms).
• Develop and implement software solutions that automate inspection processes in a manufacturing environment.
• Develop and perform tester alignment and calibration procedures to ensure accuracy and reliability.
• Troubleshoot issues and support the full development cycle of tester hardware and software.
• Create and maintain technical documentation, including standard operating procedures (SOPs), validation procedures, and user guides.
• Work closely with product, quality, and manufacturing engineering teams to define requirements and troubleshoot problems.
• Participate in continuous improvement efforts, including root cause analysis and process optimization.

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Engineering, Computer Science or a related field.
• Minimum 5 years’ experience as a software engineer working with integrated systems, metrology instruments, automated systems, or a related field.
• Proficiency in programming languages such as C++, C#, and Python.
• Knowledge of Machine Learning (ML) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) as applied to mechatronic systems.
• Experience with automation and control systems.

• Master’s degree in Computer Engineering, Computer Science or a related field.
• Experience with hardware integration (e.g., optics, sensors, robotics) and communication interfaces (e.g., SPI, I2C, TCP/IP).
• Knowledge of LABVIEW or MATLAB.
• Knowledge of embedded system fundamentals, including microcontrollers and hardware interfaces.
• Understanding of control systems, signal processing, and embedded systems.

• Strong problem‑solving and analytical skills.
• Detail‑oriented with a focus on quality and reliability.
• Excellent communication skills—written and verbal.
• Ability to manage multiple tasks and prioritize effectively in a fast‑paced environment.
• Team player who collaborates well with others while working independently when needed.
