The
Senior AI Software Engineer (m/f/d), Regulated Platforms and Toolsfor Computational Pathology is a senior technical role focused primarily on software development for platforms, tools, and engineering frameworks used to build regulated medical computational pathology products. While the role sits within the AI engineering space, its core emphasis is on building robust software systems and development infrastructure that enable the safe, traceable, scalable, and compliant development ofAI-enabled medical software.

This role has a primary focus on software development, not pure model research or algorithm development role. Success in the role depends on building the software and platform foundations that allow computational pathology AI capabilities to be developed and integrated into regulated computational pathology products in a controlled, scalable, and compliant manner.

The role is especially suited to someone who can bridge software engineering disciplineandAI product understanding, and who can help embed quality by design,risk-based thinking, and structured lifecycle execution into day-to-day engineering practice.

• Design, develop, and maintain
  software platforms, internal tools, and enabling infrastructure for regulated computational pathology products, ensuring solutions are scalable, maintainable, and suitable for controlled development and deployment environments.

• Hands-on programming and feature implementation
  :
  Designs, codes, tests, debugs, and maintains production-quality software features for regulated AI and computational pathology platforms, translating requirements into robust implementations with appropriate documentation, traceability, and compliance with established development controls.

• Follow regulated software development practices for AI-enabled products using theV-model
  , including definition and management of requirements, design inputs, implementation controls, and support for verification and validation.

• Support functional risk assessment activities
  for AI-enabled software features, workflows, and platform components, including identification of risks, definition ofmitigations, and linkage of risk controls to design and verification evidence.

• Establish and improve regulated engineering processes
  across projects, including documentation standards, configuration management, change control, code review practices, release governance, and defect management.

• Collaborate and influence across disciplines
  including software engineering, data science, pathology, product, quality, and regulatory teams to resolve complex issues, align technical solutions to product needs, and support delivery of project objectives.

• Provide technical leadership across multiple initiatives
