Description

Architect and lead the development of end-to-end multiplexing systems for analytical instruments, ensuring deterministic real-time execution and hardware integration.

Responsibilities

• Define architecture for multi-LC to single MS orchestration, including real-time scheduling engines, stream state management, and valve routing control.
• Architect and guide implementation in C++ for instrument control and drivers, and .NET (C#) for UI, orchestration, and services.
• Design a hardware abstraction layer (HAL) for HPLC stacks, MS systems, and peripherals, establishing low-latency communication models.
• Lead development of device drivers (USB, Ethernet, RS232, CAN) and define command/response models with robust error handling and synchronization.
• Implement event-driven architectures for timing-critical workflows, ensuring data integrity, audit trails, and compliance with GxP/21 CFR Part 11.

Required Skills

• 12+ years of experience in systems architecture and software development.
• Strong proficiency in modern C++ (11/14/17) for real-time layers and instrument control.
• Extensive experience with .NET and C#, including WPF or modern UI frameworks for orchestration and services.
• Hands-on experience developing device drivers and instrument control software using TCP/IP, Serial (RS232/RS485), USB, and CAN protocols.
• Proven track record designing distributed systems or real-time orchestration platforms with event-driven architecture and state machines.
• Deep understanding of multi-threaded and concurrent systems, scheduling algorithms, and conflict resolution.
• Experience in regulated environments, including GxP compliance, electronic records, and validation (V&V).
• Strong systems thinking with the ability to integrate hardware and software components effectively.

Preferred Skills

• Domain experience with analytical instruments (LC, MS, HPLC, GC) and lab automation systems.
• Understanding of chromatography workflows and acquisition timing constraints.
