Software Engineer (Microcontroller) m / f / d - Entwicklung, Qualitätsmanagement, IT

The Software Engineer will work within the Cardio-Pulmonary Business Franchise as part of the SW Team on the development of new products.

In this position, you will work specifically on life-sustaining devices such as Heart-Lung Machines or other products of the cardio-pulmonary portfolio (e.g. Auto-Transfusion Systems, Heater-Cooler) on a wide spectrum of tasks during the concept, design, and verification phase.

General Responsibilities

• Design and develop high safety microcontroller-based Software responsible for Sensor Interfaces, Actuator control, and complex clinical functionalities.
• Support the definition of product requirements in close collaboration with other stakeholders (e.g. Marketing, System Engineers).
• Define the Software Architecture in collaboration with the SW Architect, considering all constraints from legacy products or interacting with HW Engineers to overcome possible HW challenges.
• Develop the Software and create the necessary Design Documentation in line with Medical Devices’ standards.
• Ensure the quality of the Software deliverables through up-to-date static/dynamic code analysis tools and by developing Unit Tests/Integration tests, and Code Reviews in line with internal Quality standards.
• Support the Root-Cause Analysis and resolution of SW Anomalies using Debug and Measurement tools (e.g. Oscilloscope).
