O pozici
Thermo Fisher Scientific's Ion Chromatography and Sample Preparation (ICSP) team is seeking a Software Test Engineer to support validation and performance of next-generation ion chromatography laboratory instruments.
This role is part of a strategic NPI (New Product Introduction) initiative focused on developing a new generation platform for chromatographic instruments. This is not about maintaining or incrementally improving existing solutions, but a complete redesign of a system currently built on approximately 15-year-old electronics.
The goal is to create a modern, scalable platform by leveraging new technologies to significantly improve performance, functionality, and overall system architecture. The work involves validating complex analytical instrumentation systems that combine advanced hardware, embedded software, and domain-specific capabilities.
This is a multi-year program, offering long-term stability and the opportunity to contribute across multiple phases of development—from early validation through to commercialization and sustaining engineering.
