Senior Software Engineer

Nabsys is advancing genomics with a clear focus on accessibility and innovation through its proprietary electronic genome mapping (EGM) technology. Implemented on the OhmX Platform™, EGM integrates precision electronics, nanofluidics, and computational biology to deliver high-resolution insight into genome structure. This approach expands what’s possible in cytogenetics, molecular genetics, and cell and gene therapy research, while providing comprehensive structural variation analysis to laboratories of all sizes. The company was founded in 2005 and is based in Providence, Rhode Island. For more information, visit www.nabsys.com.

Location: Providence, RI (hybrid — on-site at least 1x/week, more if desired)

Responsibilities:

• Use AI coding tools (the team has standardized on Claude) to accelerate development, testing, and documentation
• Own, maintain, and enhance the current LabVIEW-based instrument application that runs the OhmX platform — feature additions, debugging, performance and reliability improvements, and incremental refactoring
• Lead and contribute to developing the next generation of the instrument application on a text-based stack (primarily Python)
• Create software development documentation: requirements, software design, and architecture
• Establish an automated unit and functional test suite for the next generation instrument application
• Write Python tools for data analysis and integration within the instrument application
• Collaborate with internal customers and users of the OhmX to solve application issues and shape improvements
• Partner with QA to develop a more structured system-level testing strategy

Required Skills & Experience:

• BS in Engineering, Computer Science, or a related Science, with 5+ years of relevant software experience
• Proficiency in Python
• Hands-on LabVIEW experience, with the ability to debug, extend, and refactor an existing production LabVIEW application
• Interest in and willingness to learn AI-assisted development tools for coding, testing, and documentation — prior experience is not required
• Understanding of the full software development lifecycle: requirements, design, implementation, and verification
• Strong object-oriented design and programming; comfort with large, distributed architectures
• Production-ready coding practices, including writing maintainable, well-tested code
• Experience with software verification and validation, including hands-on system-level testing and integration
• Comfort working hands-on with laboratory instrumentation — testing and debugging happen on a physical instrument in the lab
• A pragmatic approach to problem solving
• Excellent organizational and interpersonal communication skills
• Comfort working on fast-paced, challenging projects

Preferred / Nice to Have:

• Hands-on experience with AI coding agents such as Claude Code, OpenAI Codex, or Google Gemini
• SQL database experience, particularly SQLite (a component of the OhmX instrument software).
• Familiarity with working within a Quality Management System (QMS), as is common in Medical Device, Defense, or other regulated industries
• DevOps experience: setting up continuous integration / deployment (CI/CD) tooling, and working with collaborative development tools such as Git, Bitbucket, GitHub, JIRA, and Confluence
• Experience developing or testing software for scientific instruments, lab equipment, or other hardware-integrated systems
• Deeper LabVIEW expertise: established architectures (e.g., Actor Framework), GUI development, test frameworks, or LabVIEW certification
• Experience with Serial, TCP/IP, Bluetooth, SPI, I2C, or CAN communication buses

Compensation

• Competitive salary and bonus structure
• Equity stake
• Benefits include health, dental, vision, 401(k) plan with 50% match up to 6% of base salary, unlimited vacation, life insurance
