Qudos enables scientists and engineers to master biologics faster by combining cutting-edge processing power and reproducibility. Mastery is built on truth, and Qudos delivers the accuracy and scalability needed to accelerate discovery and development of advanced biologics.

We are looking for a Software Engineer to join and contribute in a highly dynamic and multidisciplinary environment.

• Strong proficiency in backend development (Python and/or Golang preferred)
• Deep understanding of API and microservice architecture, including RESTful and event-driven systems
• Experience with data storage and processing pipelines (PostgreSQL, InfluxDB, TimescaleDB, or similar)
• Competence in cloud infrastructure (AWS or equivalent) and infrastructure-as-code tools (e.g. Terraform)
• Knowledge of authentication and authorisation frameworks (OAuth2, OpenID Connect, Entra ID) and role-based access control (RBAC)
• Working understanding of mathematical simulation, including 2D graph or network-based computation, deterministic problem solving, and model validation
• Awareness of embedded systems integration (e.g. Zephyr RTOS, C++) and their interaction with backend services
• Awareness of front-end frameworks (React, TypeScript) and API interface design for UI developers
• Strong experience of developing Linux based systems and applications
• Experience with containerisation (Docker, Kubernetes) and CI/CD pipelines
• Strong appreciation of software security, testing, and performance optimisation

• Demonstrated ability to deliver robust, production-grade software systems to defined outcomes and timelines
• Skilled at translating physical or process systems into structured, mathematical, or graph-based software logic
• Strong problem-solving and analytical reasoning, particularly in the context of network or process simulation
• Proven ability to design for scalability, maintainability, and reliability
• Comfortable collaborating across embedded, UI, and scientific teams to integrate diverse system components
• Excellent technical communication and documentation skills
• Strong discipline in code management, testing, and continuous improvement (Git, CI/CD, automated testing)
• Outcome-driven mindset with focus on delivering measurable progress and product value
• Adaptable, curious, and resourceful; thrives in a multi-disciplinary R&D environment

• 5+ years professional software development experience, including leading or owning delivery of major features or systems
• Proven record of successful project delivery in a scientific, industrial, or data-intensive environment
• Experience applying mathematical or computational modelling to real-world engineering or process systems
• Degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Mathematics, or related discipline, or equivalent hands‑on experience
• Familiarity with graph or simulation libraries (e.g. NetworkX, SciPy, NumPy, or similar)
• Exposure to scientific or industrial instrumentation (desirable but not essential)
