  • Maintain the readiness to address critical system issues in live environments or production lines, ensuring rapid recovery and stability.
  • Work closely with developers, QA, Product, and other cross-functional stakeholders in a multinational environment.
  • Take ownership of tasks, deliver independently, and help drive engineering excellence and best practices across the team


Requirements

  • B.Sc. degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or equivalent practical experience.
  • 3+ years of backend or server-side development experience, with a proven track record in industrial automation, semiconductor equipment, or complex hardware-software integration systems.
  • Strong experience in Object-Oriented Programming (OOP), primarily in C# (or Java with a willingness to master C#).
  • Deep understanding of Multi-threading, asynchronous programming (async/await), and managing concurrency in real-time or near-real-time environments.
  • Proven experience in implementing complex software systems, with strong analytical and problem-solving skills to handle production-level issues.
  • Familiarity with debugging tools (e.g., WinDbg, dotMemory, dotTrace) and the ability to perform Offline Debugging through logs and memory dumps.
  • Understanding of Database Schemas and data relationships.
  • Proficiency in writing and executing SQL commands and the ability to read and trace Stored Procedures.
  • Ability to work as a team player while also taking full ownership and working independently.
  • A genuine passion for technology and problem-solving.
  • Availability to travel abroad for short periods, if needed.
  • Strong communication skills to collaborate effectively with multinational teams and present technical findings clearly.

That special something you bring in

  • Experience working in Agile development environments.
  • Familiarity with the semiconductor communication protocol SECS/GEM.
