Job description

Important Note: for this position, we're currently considering candidate available to work in a hybrid model (4 days/week) in the following locations: Newton (Massachusetts), and Minneapolis (Minnesota).

The Senior Desktop UI Software Engineer (Qt/QML) will be a key player in the Mapping and Ablation System Software Team, working on cutting‑edge technology in the electrophysiology field. This role is pivotal in designing and developing intuitive, user‑friendly interfaces that enhance the usability and functionality of our advanced medical devices.

The ideal candidate should have extensive experience designing, developing, and testing real‑time high‑performance visualization software applications. They will take ownership of critical software features, collaborating closely with other engineering teams to bring these features to life.

The Mapping and Ablation System is an innovative medical technology designed to treat patients with cardiac arrhythmias. The system involves advanced mapping techniques to create detailed images of the heart's electrical activity, helping physicians identify abnormal areas causing arrhythmias. Once identified, the Ablation System delivers targeted energy to disrupt these abnormal signals, restoring normal heart rhythm.

Requirements:

• Bachelor's degree and 5 years of relevant experience
• Strong skills in Python ideally with ROS or device‑level comms
• Strong experience in desktop UI development (e.g. Qt/QML, PyQt, Open GL , unity, GTK, WPF, or similar)
• Basic knowledge of C++
• Experience building real‑time or data‑rich interfaces for technical or clinical applications
• Strong understanding of software architecture and design patterns
• Strong communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to work effectively in a team environment
• Excellent problem‑solving abilities and a proactive approach to addressing challenges
• Experience with software version control systems, such as Git
• Experience working with UI designers and implementing UI designed in Figma or similar
• Experience with Agile development methodologies
• Experience with cloud‑based platforms and services (e.g., AWS, Azure)
• Knowledge of CI/CD tools and practices, including automated testing and deployment
• Experience working in a regulated environment.

Responsibilities:

• Collaborate with cross‑functional teams including UI designers and medical professionals to gather requirements and translate them into compelling user experiences.
• Develop and maintain high‑quality, scalable, and maintainable code using Qt, Python, and QML on a Linux operating system.
• Collaborate with cross‑functional teams, including hardware engineers, product design engineers, software test, reliability, and leadership to define software requirements and deliver high‑quality solutions.
• Mentor and guide less experienced software team members, fostering a culture of innovation and excellence.
• Apply best practices in software development to maintain high‑quality code.
• Attend and participate in pre‑clinical in‑vivo system evaluations.
• Participate in laboratory demonstrations for internal stakeholders and clinicians.
