We're looking for an experienced C++ Software Engineer who enjoys making both the software and the development process better. You enjoy solving technically challenging problems and naturally take ownership of improving how software is built. You don't consider CI/CD, automation and tooling as separate disciplines, they are simply part of writing better software., * A Bachelor s or Master s degree in (Technical) Computer Science, Embedded Systems, or similar * Minimum 5 years of relevant industry experience as a Software Engineer in a high-tech or embedded environment, with a strong track record in designing and developing object-oriented software solutions in C++ and preferably Python * Experience with optimization, setting up or maintaining CI/CD and build environments is required * Experience with OOP, unit testing, Agile methodologies, and software design principles * Hands-on experience with Docker and Kubernetes is a strong plus ## Description At TOPIC we work every day on high-tech innovations that make the world smarter, healthier, and better. We are searching for a Senior C++ Software Engineer who takes ownership of the DevOps-related deliverables. Are you an experienced Senior Software Engineer who understands how modern tooling and CI/CD enhance the quality, speed, and scalability of software development? DevOps is a mindset of continuous improvement. The goal is to relentlessly optimize processes, tools, and collaboration to increase development efficiency, speed up delivery, and elevate software quality Erwin Bonsma | Software Architect @ TOPIC What will you do as a Senior C++ Software Engineer with DevOps ownership? We develop the software behind advanced medical systems, semiconductor equipment and high-tech machines where reliability, performance and precision are critical. Software that has to perform predictably, often under strict timing constraints, while interacting closely with hardware. As a Senior C++ Software Engineer, you'll design and develop these complex software systems together with some of the most experienced engineers in the industry. But that's only part of the role. You're also someone who notices when software teams can work smarter. When builds take too long. When testing can be automated. When repetitive work should disappear. Instead of accepting it, you improve it., * Design, implement, and verify subsystems, modules, and components within complex embedded systems * Integrate software into complex hardware and software systems * Apply Object-Oriented Programming, UML, unit testing, and modern design principles Alongside software development, you'll help the team become more effective by improving the engineering workflow. That means you are also involved with: * Improving CI/CD pipelines. * Automate builds and test execution. * Develop Python tooling that removes repetitive manual work. * Improve developer experience and software quality. * Help colleagues adopt better engineering practices. What do we offer you? This makes you smarter: * Strategic projects in complex high-tech environments * Collaboration with senior engineers and domain experts * Access to advanced training through our TOPIC Academy * Opportunities to contribute to and lead tech events and knowledge sessions ## Related Videos - [From DevOps to Scaled DevOps: How We’re Rebuilding Continuous Delivery as a Platform](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100018-from-devops-to-scaled-devops-how-we-re-rebuilding-continuous-delivery-as-a-platform) - [ChatGPT and Java: A Match Made in Heaven or Hell?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/536-chatgpt-and-java-a-match-made-in-heaven-or-hell) - [Docker Compose: Rediscovered](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1978-docker-compose-rediscovered) - [Why Your Best Mediors Never Become Seniors (And How to Fix It)](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/2108-why-your-best-mediors-never-become-seniors-and-how-to-fix-it) - [The Evolving Landscape of Application Development: Insights from Three Years of Research](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1459-the-evolving-landscape-of-application-development-insights-from-three-years-of-research) - [Docker build without Docker](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100114-docker-build-without-docker) ## Related Articles - [Where to Find Entry-Level Software Engineering Jobs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/397-where-to-find-entry-level-software-engineering-jobs) - [What’s the Difference between a Junior, Mid, and Senior Developer?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/238-what-s-the-difference-between-a-junior-mid-and-senior-developer) - [Where To Find Software Engineering Jobs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/396-where-to-find-software-engineering-jobs) - [The Netherlands – Europe’s powerhouse for software development?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/31-the-netherlands-europe-s-powerhouse-for-software-development) - [Fully Remote Software Engineer Jobs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/447-fully-remote-software-engineer-jobs) - [Is Software Engineering Over-Saturated?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/418-is-software-engineering-over-saturated)
