Role Description
We are looking for a Software Engineer to join our R&D team in Thiene.
The role focuses on the development and maintenance of software for industrial systems, where desktop applications, embedded firmware, and remote services must work together reliably.
The position requires a pragmatic, hands-on approach and the ability to take technical ownership of software that runs on real machines in production environments.
This is a full-time, on-site position.
Responsibilities
* Design, develop, and maintain desktop software for industrial systems (mainly C++ and C#)
* Work closely with embedded firmware running on microcontrollers and hardware devices
* Contribute to the integration with cloud-based services and back-end systems
* Refactor and consolidate existing legacy code, improving robustness and maintainability
* Implement diagnostics, logging, and error-handling strategies to support long-term reliability
* Collaborate with mechanical, electronic, and production teams in a multidisciplinary environment
* Support debugging and troubleshooting on real machines
Required Skills & Experience
* Strong experience in software development, with solid fundamentals in computer science
* Proven experience with C++ in production environments
* Experience with desktop application development (e.g. C#, C++/Qt, or similar)
* Good understanding of software architecture and system integration
* Ability to work on complex, real-world systems, not just isolated modules
* Pragmatic mindset: focus on robustness, maintainability, and diagnosability
* Comfortable working with existing codebases and improving them incrementally
Nice to Have
* Experience with embedded systems / firmware development
* Exposure to cloud platforms (e.g. AWS, Azure) and REST-based services
* Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines and version control workflows (Git)
