Senior Software & Algorithms Engineer

At MONSTR Sense Technologies, we are developing advanced ultrafast imaging and spectroscopy tools to solve hard problems in fundamental research and the semiconductor industry. We are a team of scientists and engineers who simplify the hard parts of optical measurements so our customers can achieve great results without great effort.

Objective

We are searching for a Software & Algorithms Engineer to spearhead the evolution of our instrument control and data analysis suite. In this role, you will be the primary architect of the user experience for our flagship products, including the BIGFOOT spectrometer and KRAKEN ultrafast microscope. Your mission is twofold: to lead the commercial maturation of our performance-leading Ultrafast Imaging software tools and to transform "proof-of-concept" scientific algorithms into robust, production-ready features.

You will be an important player with our R&D science team as a bridge to the final customer. While our scientists prototype new capabilities in Python and Matlab, you will have the responsibility to architect, optimize, and implement new features into our turnkey software. This is a foundational role with the opportunity to grow our Software Group as we expand our team.
