JOB OPENING: Software Development Engineer (Graphical User Interfaces)

Overview
This position is a critical hire in the Engineering group in that we are looking for a key contributor for software technologies that will impact all development projects across customers and markets. The key areas we are looking for include production quality, quality of results, software maturity, cross-platform compliance, performance, scalability, and maintainability. Our software products are deployed across the widest of platforms including embedded, stand-alone, and enterprise level systems. What this means for the software development team is to develop highly reusable and reconfigurable code that can run on any of several hardware systems with equal reliability and performance.

It is imperative that this individual have experience in modern commercial software development processes including customer specifications and requirements, breaking product goals into definable, task oriented assignments, high quality coding using internally developed standards, and high coverage rate testing. Neural ID is using agile development techniques today but moving towards a balanced approach to waterfall vs. agile development (Greenhopper) that allows software to be developed across parallel stakeholders including customers.

Job Description
The individual will be responsible for the timely, high quality, and cost effective delivery of OEM software products and customized/value-added software applications with special emphasis on the product quality that meets or exceeds customer and corporate requirements. The candidate is expected to be able to define and implement within the development team the highest quality software modules and products. The individual is expected to be expert in the field of software algorithms and coding and be of sufficient experience to appreciate the roles of both art and science in developing the highest value software.

The ideal candidate should be an experienced GUI software engineer with strong coding and testing experience in a scalable (successful startup) or scaled (medium-to-large) software organization that now delivers a variety of products to customers across multiple vertical markets. This hypothetical candidate should be of sufficient maturity and experience to understand the necessity for process-driven software development while maintaining the excitement and rewards of working together in a small, collaborative, team environment.

Primary Responsibilities

• Rapid coding and development of state-of-the-art client-server embedded and enterprise applications

• Compile customer use cases; develop detailed design documents based on customer needs; develop public APIs and code based on detailed designs

• Develop and optimize data structures and algorithms

• Develop and maintain intuitive, cross-platform GUI

• Integration with 3rd party software; testing, documentation, source control, build systems

• Help develop internal coding standards and processes to ensure scalability as company grows

• Work with Neural ID & customer engineers

Minimum Requirements

• BS, MS, or PhD in CS/EE/Physics/Mathematics or related field from a top university, or equivalent experience

• Expert-level software development skills and at least 5 years commercial experience in Windows GUI environments (C/C++)

• Proven ability to rapidly design/code/prototype/test GUIs and data-driven applications and servers using C/C++ and Qt languages and frameworks.

• Multi-thread coding including optimization, debug environments, and code quality assessment

• Messaging, network protocols, transformation of complex message/data-driven environments into simple-to-use customer focused GUIs

• Hands-on coding experience in engineering data analysis or data mining, networked applications

• Motivated self-starter who likes to work in fast-paced entrepreneurial environment

• Excellent written & verbal communication skills

• Strong customer focus

Desirable Skills and/or Experience

• Hands-on experience with inter-process communications including COM-like interfaces, real-time processing, image processing, statistical methods, machine learning techniques

• Experience in managing, processing, and visualizing very large data sets

• Embedded development experience (coding for embedded systems)

• Perforce, JIRA/Bamboo, Virtual Machine environments experience
