About GenScript Founded in 2002 in New Jersey, GenScript Biotech Corporation accelerates innovation in biotech and healthcare by providing researchers and companies with the building blocks needed to develop groundbreaking treatments and products. Guided by its mission to Make People and Nature Healthier Through Biotechnology, and its role as a well-recognized biotechnology company, GenScript has a team of approximately 6,165 employees and has served more than 200,000 customers across over 100 countries and regions. Description: Architect and develop mission-critical software for a next-generation automated oligo synthesizer, enabling precise control of mechanical, fluidic, and electrical systems. You’ll own the full-stack software infrastructure, from low-level hardware communication (USB/SPI/serial) and embedded firmware integration to GUI design, data analysis tools, and database management — ensuring seamless operation for end-user scientists.   Responsibilities: Own the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) for instrument control software: design, implement, debug, test, and deploy across Java/Python/C++ codebases. Modernize and refactor legacy systems while ensuring backward compatibility with low level software + embedded firmware (custom PCB controller) and hardware messaging protocols. Collaborate cross-functionally with engineers, scientists, and IT to translate user feedback into scalable software improvements (UI/UX, performance, reliability). Develop data analysis pipelines (Python scripts, databases) and real-time monitoring tools for high-speed acquisition and process optimization. Act as SME for software architecture: document APIs, mentor junior engineers, and align technical decisions with long-term product roadmaps.   Onsite Requirement: This is a fully onsite role due to the hands-on nature of instrument control, hardware integration, and close collaboration with engineering and scientific teams.   Qualifications: Requires Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Computer Science & Engineering, Software Engineering, Electrical Engineering or a related field. Technical Non-Negotiables: 6–8 years in full-stack software development for instrumentation/robotics/embedded systems. Expertise in: Java: core codebase, multi-threaded code and GUI desktop applications (JavaFX or Swing). Java, Maven, NetBeans IDE and Mercurial. Python: scripting, data analysis tools. Low-level comms protocols: USB, Serial, SPI, I2C. Microcontrollers/embedded firmware (hands-on debugging). GUI development (e.g., Java FX, Swing, Qt, or other modern frameworks). Proven leadership in architecting complex systems (design patterns, version control, continuous improvement (CI) / continuous development (CD)). Soft Skills & Culture Fit: “Product mindset”: Balance technical rigor with end-user needs (scientists’ workflows). Communicate complex ideas clearly to both engineers and non-technical stakeholders. Autonomy: Self-driven in ambiguous, R&D-paced environments.   Benefit: Medical Insurance/ Vision Insurance/ Dental Insurance 401(k) & Retirement Savings Plan (RSP) Short Term Disability Insurance New Child Leave Paid Time Off Paid Company Holidays per year Paid Sick Days (earned based on hours worked) Compassionate Leave Jury Duty Leave Float day Personal days Perks:  Free colleague meals during shift Onsite massages Charis Onsite gyms Compensation: Salary range: $150,000 – $170,000 total compensation, including bonus, depending on experience and qualifications.     Benefits: Benefits include medical, dental, and vision insurance as well as a 401(k) retirement plan with a company match that vests fully on day one.
