Integration Engineer C# and C++ (Starting Q3 2026, 80-100%, Zürich)

Manukai stands for Manu_facturing and Kai_zen_,_ a Japanese methodology of continuous improvement, that translates to “change for better.” In ancient Greek, Kai_ros means “the opportune moment.”

We are a Spin-Off from ETH Zürich, aiming to bridge the gap between metal part design and machining. Our technology empowers manufacturers to prioritize their clients’ needs and deliver high-quality products to the market. Our primary focus is making an immediate impact, with client satisfaction our utmost priority.

Tasks

The Role

You deliver solutions and algorithms to Manukai’s CAM engineering team to solve common challenges. You enable seamless communication between the different Manukai modules and CAM Add-Ins. You are responsible for defining, documenting, and coordinating the software integrations into CAM software. Along with this, you will be involved in code reviews to continuously improve our code base. Additionally, you'll be responsible for quality via testing, analyzing, and engagement with customers. Ideally, you identify problems before they reach production stage.

Responsibilities

• Implementation and testing of algorithms and interfaces to solve manufacturing problems


• Create tools that help the CAM engineering team validate performance and correctness of their implementation


• Define, document, and support the implementation of a scalable software architecture


• Documentation of architecture, data flow, and data schemas


• Implement CAM UI elements


• Maintain good software quality and sustainable development. Review code developed by the CAM engineering team members, and provide feedback to ensure best practices (e.g., reusability, testability, efficiency, and style)

Tech Stack:

• C# for integration with Windows-based systems


• High-performance modules and CAM adapters in C++ and C#


• C++/CLI for interoperability


• WPF / Winform / MFC for UI elements within CAM


• Python for backend and automation


• Postgres for data warehousing


• CI/CD pipelines using GitHub actions (build, test, and automation)
