Senior Software Engineer, Architecture & Algorithms

As a Senior Software Engineer focused on architecture and algorithms, you will define the software architecture and design the core measurement, data-analysis, and signal/image-processing algorithms that power our families of surface profiler, thin film, sheet resistance and nanoindentation measurement instruments, leveraging cutting-edge technologies and the latest advancements in software engineering and AI/ML/DL.,

• Deliver well-defined features/components with high-level guidance: estimate work, communicate risks/tradeoffs, and deliver on schedule
• Own and evolve the software architecture across the development lifecycle-defining system- and subsystem-level requirements, interfaces, and specifications, and guiding key design decisions
• Design, implement, and optimize core algorithms for measurement, data analysis, and signal/image processing, including numerical methods and high-performance multithreaded code
• Develop C#/.NET and C++ software for data analysis and algorithm implementation; write maintainable, well-structured code and use AI-assisted tools responsibly under company security policies
• Evaluate and compare algorithmic approaches through prototyping, benchmarking, and analysis of accuracy, precision, and computational complexity
• Build robust unit/integration tests and use profiling to improve algorithm performance, accuracy, memory usage, reliability, and security
• Participate in design reviews and incorporate feedback from stakeholders and subject matter experts
• Troubleshoot system/subsystem issues using logs and experiments; contribute to root-cause analysis, implement fixes with guidance, and help prevent recurrence
• Demonstrate motivation to independently learn and apply new software technologies
