We don’t just build technology. We build hope.

Are you ready to make a meaningful impact in the healthcare technology sector?

We’re seeking a DevOps Senior Engineer to join our dynamic team and contribute to the development of cutting-edge control systems for advanced radiotherapy solutions.

In this role, you’ll design and deliver robust DevOps build systems and pipelines for application software that powers our radiotherapy systems. This comprehensive software suite includes a service application, factory test software, and interfaces seamlessly with external Treatment Management and Real-Time control systems.

You’ll collaborate within a skilled scrum team as part of an Agile Release Train, following Scaled Agile (SAFe) principles to deliver high-quality solutions in a safety-critical environment.

If you thrive in an Agile environment, value teamwork, and are passionate about developing solutions that make a real difference in people’s lives, we’d love to hear from you!
