Full Stack Engineer

I am recruiting for our client; a global healthcare diagnostics company is seeking a Full Stack Software Engineer with strong Rust expertise to join a software development team working on next-generation diagnostic systems.

The role sits within a Real-Time Control Software group focused on building high-quality software solutions that support molecular laboratory, core laboratory, and point-of-care healthcare environments.

This position offers the opportunity to contribute to innovative diagnostic technologies, working closely with interdisciplinary teams across software, hardware, and engineering domains. The role involves hands-on software development across the full lifecycle—from concept and feasibility studies to implementation, testing, and release of software for regulated medical and non-medical products.

The successful candidate will play a key role in enhancing future product portfolios and improving existing solutions through technical innovation, new functionalities, and system optimization.

Key Responsibilities:

• Develop software concepts and participate in technical feasibility studies for new product features and systems.
• Design, implement, test, and release high-quality software solutions, ensuring adherence to development standards and review processes.
• Take ownership of software development tasks, including implementation, documentation, and quality assurance.
• Define, estimate, and plan work packages while maintaining and improving software specifications and system designs.
• Contribute to software architecture discussions, defining quality attributes and incorporating modern technology trends.
• Conduct root-cause analysis for complex issues and implement bug fixes for post-market software releases.
• Ensure software development activities comply with processes, quality standards, and regulatory requirements.
• Collaborate closely with hardware, engineering, and cross-functional teams to deliver robust and reliable solutions.

Required Skills & Experience:

• University degree in Software Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related technical field.
• Strong experience in Rust development with a solid understanding of:
• Ownership
• Borrowing
• Lifetimes
• Experience with asynchronous programming in Rust (e.g., async/await).
• Familiarity with common Rust libraries and frameworks such as:
• tokio
• actix-web
• rocket
• sqlx
• Experience working with Linux environments and Docker.
• Strong software engineering fundamentals and experience in modern development practices.

Nice to Have:

• Basic scripting experience.
• Knowledge of RabbitMQ or messaging systems.
• Experience with CAN bus communication.
• Familiarity with event-driven architectures.
• Experience working in regulated environments, such as the medical device industry.
