Description:

The media is full of artificial intelligence and how it will take over our future. But do you really want to work for a start-up that uses AI to recognize cat photos on Instagram? Or for a sluggish multinational aiming to make even more money with big data analysis?

Or… do you want to come and work here, where you can develop and contribute to innovative solutions for things that really matter? 

 

The vacancy 

At ZiuZ, our mission is to achieve worldwide impact with products that contribute to socially relevant issues. We are hard at work on a new medical device to improve patient outcomes in the operating room. This product combines proprietary image analysis techniques with embedded systems in a hand-held device that offers doctors life-saving insights. We are looking for an experienced developer to join this multidisciplinary product development team.

 

What is your role as Software Developer 

We work in the Agile way: you will be part of a Scrum team and work closely with the software architect, research engineers and colleagues with commercial and medical expertise. We apply knowledge of C++ for Linux to write code for a high-performance application centered around image and video processing. This role focuses on backend development, including interfaces with peripherals such as video capture devices, cameras or serial communication. Additionally, a simple but effective GUI will be developed for implementation in the operating room on both a screen and touch screen. Awareness of prevailing standards and regulations and embracing a way of working that ensures compliance are important.

 

What do you bring to the table? 

We are in search of a C++ developer with a minimum of five years relevant work experience and formal IT training at the HBO (higher professional) or WO (university) level. You are comfortable working with Linux on embedded computing units such as NVIDIA Jetson or Raspberry Pi and are familiar with GUI libraries such as Qt, gtkmm or similar. Working knowledge of OpenCV and Cuda is beneficial.

 

The research engineers with whom you will collaborate develop computer vision and machine learning solutions using Python. Other ZiuZ products are developed in C# using .NET Core. Affinity with or even some knowledge of these programming languages will help, but is not a must. Colleagues at ZiuZ hail from around the world; a strong command of the English language is therefore essential. Above all ZiuZ team members are curious, analytical and take a hands-on approach to technology development.

 

What does ZiuZ offer? 

In addition to a full-time position and a comprehensive employee benefits package, ZiuZ offers a supplement to your primary salary to be used toward personal pension accrual, a commuting allowance and a standard expense allowance, including provisions for home internet and mobile phone expenses. Furthermore, ZiuZ offers 27 vacation days per year and reserves budget for professional training for each and every employee. We implement a hybrid setup which enables you to partly work from home, where circumstances permit. ZiuZ believes it is essential to meet your colleagues regularly to build team spirit, foster creativity and ensure strong communication.

 

At ZiuZ you will experience a working environment in which innovation and the development of high-quality products that apply cutting-edge visual and artificial intelligence technologies are the order of the day. As a company, it is of paramount importance to us that you continue to develop yourself and invest in relationships with your peers. The ZiuZ Research Board supports employees in expanding knowledge and developing technical competencies through the exploration of new tools and technologies. We make room for informal contact amongst colleagues on a daily basis through company-wide coffee breaks and daily lunches. We also organize recreational activities such as game events, mountain biking excursions, family days and trips to watch the marathon skating team that ZiuZ sponsors race over the finish line.

 

Are you curious about this role and would you like to know more about working at ZiuZ? Don’t hesitate to get in touch, we’d be happy to tell you more.
