Your role in the team
- Develop data processing systems: You design and implement software for processing and analyzing meteorological data, including high-frequency datasets such as lightning detection.
- Apply your strong C++ programming skills where needed to develop, optimize, and maintain performance-critical components. Programming is only one part of the role, which covers a much broader range of technical responsibilities.
- Develop and maintain robust, scalable solutions with a strong focus on performance, reliability, and long-term maintainability.
- Translate complex mathematical and physical concepts into efficient, production-ready code.
- Ensure code quality through clean design, solid documentation, and continuous optimization of existing systems.
- You apply best practices in software development and continuously improve workflows and technologies. You work largely independently, take ownership of your tasks, and proactively drive technical initiatives forward.
