Software Gigs

Join Illumina's Primary Analysis team to design and develop high-performance signal processing software for genomic data analysis. You will architect C/C++ solutions for multi-threaded, real-time applications running on Linux, optimize algorithms for genomic base calling from image signals, and collaborate across bioinformatics, instrument design, and quality teams. The role demands expertise in memory management, performance optimization, debugging tools, and unit testing, with 8+ years of professional software development experience.

Staff Software Engineer at Illumina's Primary Analysis team designing high-performance signal processing pipelines for genomic data analysis. The role involves architecting C/C++ software for multi-threaded, memory-optimized Linux applications that detect genomic signals from images, with responsibilities including algorithm development, performance optimization, debugging, and collaboration across bioinformatics, instrument design, and quality teams. Requires 8+ years of professional software development experience, deep expertise in C/C++, multi-threading, memory management, and debugging/profiling tools, plus strong object-oriented design and unit testing practices.

This role develops and integrates device platforms with cloud management systems for wireless edge and IoT devices across Tier-1 carrier networks. The engineer will build middleware, APIs, and services; implement device management protocols (TR-069, TR-369/USP, SNMP); perform provisioning, telemetry ingestion, and firmware-over-the-air updates; and conduct end-to-end integration testing in lab environments simulating real-world conditions. The position requires proficiency in C/C++, Go, or Python on embedded and Linux systems, strong protocol debugging skills (Wireshark, GDB), and hands-on experience with cellular networking standards, REST/gRPC APIs, and remote device management. Success demands close collaboration across distributed teams, carrier certification support, and the ability to troubleshoot complex hardware-software-network integration issues independently.
