• *Roles and Responsibilities:**

In this role, you will

• Design, code, unit\-test and deliver features hands\-on as an individual contributor and maintain/improve existing features using the latest software development technologies and infrastructure.
• Alongside individual contributions, provide module\-level technical leadership; be a role model and mentor engineers on design best practices, coding, debugging and a customer\-first mindset.
• Perform and lead system\-level software integration, debugging, crash\-dump analysis and defect triage across application, OS and firmware layers to drive root\-cause resolution.
• Architect and develop mission\-critical Modern C\+\+ components and microservices applying SOLID principles and design patterns (e.g., Factory, Observer).
• Own the end\-to\-end implementation of assigned components or modules, contributing a significant share of production code and actively participate in peer design / code reviews.
• Identify the scope of work, provide initial estimates, and justify them with facts.
• Work in an agile/scrum development model on cutting\-edge technologies, delivering integrated software products in collaboration with different teams, with a high do/say ratio and uncompromised quality.
• Collaborate with Principal Engineers, cross\-functional architects, Product Mgmt, Clinical and product marketing teams to understand user needs, product vision and evolving requirements; translate them into software requirements, architectural runway features and proof\-of\-concept solutions.
• Drive design reviews, seek and provide feedback on design and development, define interfaces between code modules, and apply existing technology to designs.
• Write code that meets coding and quality standards, and maintain code quality through best practices, unit testing and code quality automation.
• Collaborate with verification teams to ensure right testing of developed features.
• Make informed technology choices after due diligence and impact assessment.
• Understand the whole product, its modules and their interrelationships while being an expert in the assigned component or module.
• Assess and optimize application performance and scalability through design and best coding practices.

• *Qualifications/Requirements:**

• Bachelor’s Degree in a STEM major (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math).
• Minimum of 10 years of experience in object\-oriented design and programming in a production software environment using Agile development methodologies.
• Hands\-on experience in Linux\-based products with Modern C\+\+ (C\+\+ 14/17\), C and Embedded C/C\+\+, including STL, POSIX threads and IPC.
• Experience with the Linux kernel and distributions (e.g., Yocto, Ubuntu) and real\-time operating systems (e.g., FreeRTOS).
• Strong understanding of design patterns, algorithms and data structures.
• Strong debugging and critical thinking skills working with existing, complex code bases.
• Proficiency with debugging and quality tools such as GDB, Valgrind, kdump, Coverity and GTest, and build/version\-control tools such as GCC/G\+\+, CMake and Git.
• Scripting and automation experience using Python, Perl and Shell, including Linux build and deployment automation.
• Proven track record as a hands\-on individual contributor delivering production\-quality code, along with experience as a technical leader for end\-to\-end systems and experiences.

• *Desired Characteristics:**

• Understanding of medical device/medical software development.
• Knowledge of microcontrollers and microprocessors (e.g., ARM), bare\-metal firmware and hardware interfaces (SPI, I2C, UART).
• Exposure to healthcare and device communication protocols (e.g., HL7, REST / MQTT).
• Experience with AI\-enabled, spec\-driven development – using AI coding assistants (e.g., GitHub Copilot, Kiro) to turn structured requirements and design specifications into code, unit tests and documentation, with human review and traceability appropriate for regulated software.
• Self\-starter, motivated and able to work with minimal supervision.
• Ability to work with global cross\-functional teams, flexible to accommodate time zones as required.
• Proven ability to quickly ramp up on complex and unfamiliar code, and to pick up new languages/frameworks as needed.
• Proven knowledge of the software development lifecycle, with experience contributing to and leading projects across it – concept creation, new product development, delivery, maintenance and iteration of existing products.
• Proactive in identifying and removing project obstacles or barriers on behalf of the team.
