• Integration of measuring instruments, PLCs, databases and interfaces into the LabVIEW development environment
• Technical support within the project team
• Commissioning and optimisation of test systems at the customer’s site (a few assignments per year)
• Contributing to the preparation of quotations and providing technical advice to our customers on new projects

We are looking for people who

• are curious and keen to take on responsibility
• think analytically and solve technical problems in a hands-on way
• enjoy working in interdisciplinary teams
• take pleasure in modern software and systems development

Must-haves

• Experience in development using NI LabVIEW
• Experience in structured software design and the development of complex applications
• Knowledge of standard architectures (state machine, JKI tools, producer-consumer)
• An independent, solution-oriented and structured approach to work
• Very good command of German

Nice-to-have

• Certification as CLD, CLA
• Experience with object-oriented programming in LabVIEW
• Knowledge of Python or C++
• Experience with real-time systems, FPGAs or industrial bus systems (CAN, EtherCAT, Profinet)
