Job description

Surgical Science is a global organisation and leading provider of medical training simulations and software solutions. Surgical Science is listed on Nasdaq First North Growth Market. Together with healthcare partners and customers in more than 90 countries, we enhance patient safety and healthcare outcomes through evidence‑based, state‑of‑the‑art simulation technology that improves clinical proficiency and performance - enabling safe and effective training without putting patients at risk. Our solutions are used by medical training centres, universities, hospitals, and the medical device industry for practice, assessment, and certification. With offices in Gothenburg (HQ), Stockholm, Tel Aviv, Cleveland, Cardiff, and Shenzhen, we are a fast‑growing and stable organisation in a rapidly evolving world. We foster a hybrid work culture that supports onsite and remote collaboration across teams and time zones.

The role

As a Software Developer in our team, you’ll dive into a large C++ codebase and work with our proprietary 3D engine and physics engine to build lifelike simulators for healthcare professionals. Collaborating with team members across different locations, you’ll refine and develop advanced medical simulations with realistic 3D graphics, soft‑body dynamics, VR integration, and custom hardware integration, including robotics.

Your profile

We think you are a self‑driven, results‑oriented professional with a curious mindset. You take a holistic approach to coding and persevere in solving problems. You enjoy working independently, are comfortable working with complex code bases, and like building solutions together with brilliant colleagues. You are generous in sharing your knowledge with others and reaching out when needed.

Qualifications

• 2+ years of experience in C++ and a solid foundation in linear algebra and 3D mathematics
• Experience with Git/GitHub & agile methodologies
• Experience developing real‑time or performance‑critical applications
• Experience with Windows development environments and Visual Studio
• A degree in computer science, software engineering, or equivalent
• A professional level of English

Preferred

• Prior knowledge of graphics rendering APIs such as Vulkan or DirectX
• Experience with game and physics engines or related frameworks (e.g. Unreal, Unity, PhysX, Cuda)
• Experience in Dev tools such as JIRA, Jenkins, CMake, TeamCity
• Experience in VR Development, haptics & shader programming
• Experience in additional programming languages, preferably C# & Python
• A passion for programming and crafting robust, maintainable, and high‑performance code
• Experience with AI‑assisted coding tools and workflow

Why choose us?

Be part of a team developing the next‑gen medical simulators with life‑like graphics, world‑leading haptics feedback and cutting‑edge physics simulations. Collaborate with a multidisciplinary team of highly experienced developers, UX designers, medical experts, and product specialists to push the boundaries of realism and interactivity in simulation‑based learning. Work in an environment where your creativity, passion and ideas truly matter, and help shape products that train healthcare professionals and ultimately contribute to better patient outcomes. Take ownership of meaningful technical challenges, from architecture and performance optimisation to user experience and device integration, with a high degree of influence over technical decisions, product direction, and engineering practices.
