We are dedicated to providing equal employment opportunities and fostering diversity in all its forms, creating an inclusive environment. We value the unique experiences, knowledge, backgrounds, cultures, and perspectives of our people. By embracing diversity, we believe science can achieve its fullest potential.

THE ROLE

The Italian Institute of Technology (IIT) is seeking to appoint a highly motivated technician for the role of software developer in a project dedicated to the creation of an AI-powered system for computer-guided brain tumor resection.

This position is jointly supported by IIT’s Biomedical Robotics Lab and the Multiscale Brain Communication research line. Activities will focus specifically on the development of new real-time algorithms for the registration of pre-operative images on the deformable brain tissue during surgery.

The selected candidate will play a key role in the development of software systems to support neurosurgical procedures for the excision of brain tumors. Overall, the technology concept involves the development of computer methods for the registration of pre-operative images (from MRI or CT) to the real-time scene observed by the surgeon, which should be done considering the deformations and brain-shift observed during open-brain procedures. Specifically, the work will benefit from technology developed at BRL for guiding laparoscopic surgical procedures with augmented reality. Therefore, the selected candidate will work in close collaboration with our surgical guidance team, focusing on the translation and customization of the technology for neurosurgery. Work shall also involve the preparation of documentation and comprehensive system testing to prepare it for subsequent clinical trials.

ESSENTIAL REQUIREMENTS

• MSc in software engineering, computer science or related field
• Experience in the development of augmented-reality systems
• Experience in the development of medical device software under MDR
• Background in medical image analysis and AI systems
• Background in image registration
• Proficiency in spoken and written English
• Strong interest in medical devices and surgical technologies

ADDITIONAL SKILLS

• Ability to work in a challenging and international environment
• Capacity to work autonomously and collaboratively in a highly interdisciplinary environment
• Possess Analytical Reasoning skills and a growth mindset

COMPENSATION PACKAGE

• Competitive salary package for international standards
• Wide range of staff discounts.
• Private health care coverage depending on your role and contract
• Candidates from abroad or Italian citizens who have carried scientific research activity permanently abroad and meet specific requirements, may be entitled to a deduction from taxable income of up to 90% from 6 to 13 years.

Please submit your application using the online form and including a detailed CV, university transcripts, cover letter (outlining motivation, experience and qualifications) and contact details of 2 references.

The position will remain open until a suitable candidate is found.
