Senior Software Engineer (Python) – Life Science Instrumentation

Join Moleculent and play a key role in building the software backbone of a cutting-edge life science instrumentation platform!

If you've built software for lab systems, medtech, instruments, robotics, automation, or machine vision, or you come from

traditional software with experience in complex operational systems and want to work closer to a physical product, this could be

your next step!

Moleculent is on a mission to build products that yield new insights into the molecular foundation of human biology. This is a

chance to join a focused and dedicated team with extensive experience building successful life-science companies and products. Our

platform combines hardware, imaging, data processing and you will help build the software that ties it all together and turns

every instrument run into reliable, usable data.

This is a full-time, permanent position based on-site in Solna, Stockholm. Applications close on the 9th of November, but please

apply as soon as possible. We review applications continuously, and the role may be filled before the closing date.

As a Senior Software Engineer, you'll join our software team of experienced, driven engineers. You will work across the software

that supports the instrument, from experiment orchestration and data processing to operational tools and deployment.

You will work side by side with our software technical lead and collaborate daily with the software, analysis, and instrument

teams. Over your first year, you will move from contributing across the stack to owning releases, reliability, deployment, and

monitoring, with a growing say in architecture.

We're looking for someone with a degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent practical

experience. You have 5+ years of professional software development experience, including building software that runs in real-world

products or operational systems. Professional proficiency in English is a prerequisite.

It's also a strong plus if you have a background in scientific, instrument, robotics, automation, imaging, test-and-measurement,

or medtech software.

• Experience developing software as part of a larger product or operational system, where software interacts with broader

workflows, infrastructure, data, or physical equipment — not only isolated application services.

• Comfortable using AI-assisted development tools, and you critically review, test, and take ownership of the changes they

produce

You will thrive at Moleculent if you are curious, pragmatic, and enjoy taking real ownership in a small team where your work

directly shapes an important product.

You like working in a goal-oriented, cross-functional environment where things move fast and change often. You are friendly and

positive, with a passion for collaboration and innovation.

We believe innovative biotechnology has enabled massive leaps forward in understanding the composition of tissues and organs.

However, the functional understanding of how cells communicate in their native context and form these complex systems has just

begun. We develop technology designed to uncover radical new insights into the cellular level of human biology by mapping the

communication between cells in human tissue and providing meaningful data.

refrain from direct contact with us in this regard.
