Scientific Software Engineer (senior level)

at  The European Spallation Source

The European Spallation Source (ESS) invites applications for a Scientific Software Engineer (senior level) position at the Data Management and Software Centre (DMSC) in Copenhagen, Denmark.
The DMSC is responsible for the design, development and construction of the computer software and hardware to be used for the operation and data analysis, of the experiments that will be carried out on the future neutron scattering and imaging instruments at ESS.
ESS is a “Big Science” project that aims to be the most powerful neutron source in the world when it is fully operational in 2028. It will enable scientists to study the structure and behavior of matter at the atomic level, opening new possibilities for research and innovation in material science.

• Collect and define requirements for the processing for different detector types.
• Design and develop a software event formation system that can cope with the neutron event rates of the next generation neutron facility, accurately and reliably.
• Profile C++ event formation applications to identify processing bottlenecks and devise improvements.
• Support ESS staff in running, testing and commissioning the system.
• Co-design the next evolution of the event formation application
