Do you have a passion for driving innovation, and advancing science? Do you like providing bespoke consulting services & developing software for research projects?

Job description

The Research Engineering and Infrastructure Team (REIT) is currently looking for candidates to fill one position as a Research (Software) Engineer.

As a Research (Software) Engineer, you will be collaborating with researchers on projects across diverse domains, such as artificial intelligence, intelligent human / agent interactions, bioinformatics, computer graphics and visualizations, software engineering, data management and engineering, information systems, cyber security, high performance computing and embedded systems.

You will typically be working on two research projects simultaneously, with your engagement in projects varying from a few weeks to multi-year collaborations. You will be liaising with researchers to understand their requirements, developing and implementing solutions, while documenting them along the way.

REIT collaborates with all sections at the computer science departments of TU Delft. We are looking for a wide range of skills, for example :

  • Planning, designing and implementing software solutions, including HPC, edge, and embedded software
