10x Genomics Inc
Software Engineer III, Instrument Software
10x Genomics Inc, Pleasanton, California, United States, 94566
Overview
10x Genomics was founded to deliver powerful and reliable tools that fuel key scientific discoveries and drive exponential progress in our mastery of biology to advance human health. Our talented team has a distinguished record of creating innovative instruments, reagents, and software that analyze biological systems at a resolution that matches the complexity of biology. About the role: We are looking for a Software Engineer III to join our Instrument Software team. You have expert-level knowledge of creating high-throughput instrument control software and firmware with C, C++, Python and/or Rust. You can handle threading, multiprocessing and moving gigabytes of data per second from low-level drivers, firmware and hardware with ease. You are a stickler for testing and thrive on creating a clean and maintainable codebase. What you will be doing
Designing, profiling, optimizing and troubleshooting image acquisition pipelines, moving gigabytes of data per second. Engaging external vendors to integrate their solutions into 10X codebase Designing and developing embedded control software and firmware for cutting edge high-throughput biological instrumentation platforms Working with electrical engineers to develop functional drivers and appropriate control schemes and interfaces Negotiating/determining prototype requirements with design engineers from partner teams (e.g. Mechanical Engineering, Optical Engineering, Electrical Engineering) Designing and implementing automated test scripts built on top of your control software Contributing to the entire software lifecycle from requirements gathering to validation Writing well structured, testable, efficient and maintainable software Writing software to control hardware prototypes Writing drivers and low level hardware control software Developing application level business logic (e.g. dispense, measure, aspirate) Developing small but interactive engineering GUIs For example: given hardware you have never used, quickly write a python interface to control it Qualifications
Bachelor's degree in computer science, engineering, math, or scientific discipline with 4 years experience; OR Master's degree with 2 years of experience in software development Embedded/Firmware Development Modern C++ Python3 Preferred skills and experience
Working experience with Machine Vision or Scientific cameras, GenICam/GenTL stack over USB3Vision, GigE Vision, CXP, CameraLink Grasp of the basics of classical control theory and experience implementing control algorithms (e.g. PID, lead-lag, MPC) Exposure to digital signals processing (DSP) such as simple signal conditioning (e.g. IIR/ FIR low pass filtering) Confident usage of Python scientific and numerical computing and visualization packages (e.g. numpy, pandas, matplotlib) EE knowledge (Digital & Analog Design) and familiarity with laboratory test equipment (e.g. digital multimeter, oscilloscope, signal analyzer, etc.) Rapid software prototyping & validation with attention to detail and engineering diligence Strong analytical and problem-solving skills Strong verbal and written communication skills Formal approach to design and architecture of complex instruments/systems Background in biology and DNA sequencing is not required; interest in the field is. Compensation and benefits
Below is the base pay range for this full-time position. The actual base pay will depend on several factors unique to each candidate, including one's skills, qualifications, and experience. This role is eligible for equity grants, health and retirement benefit programs, and an annual bonus or sales incentive program. During the hiring process, your recruiter can share more about the total compensation package. Pay Range: $159,200 — $215,400 USD About 10x Genomics
