Backend Software Engineer

Description

Landa is seeking an experienced Backend Software Engineer to join its Data Path team. This hands-on role requires strong software engineering skills and the ability to develop complex, multidisciplinary systems that integrate high-volume data processing, advanced algorithms, and printing hardware.

In this role, you will develop backend software that manages and transforms print job data, executes image-processing operations such as cropping and flipping, and orchestrates data flow through processing pipelines. You will work with multi-threaded architectures, manage queues and concurrent operations, and optimize the delivery of processed data all the way to the printheads of a digital printing press.

Responsibilities

• Develop and maintain backend services that manage, process, and deliver print-job data through the Data Path pipeline, from job preparation to the printheads.
• Design high-performance, multi-threaded processing pipelines, including queue management, synchronization, parallel execution, and efficient resource use.
• Implement and optimize data-processing and image-processing algorithms, including print-data transformations such as cropping and flipping, and production inspection algorithms for defect detection, calibration, and quality metrics.
• Integrate software with industrial imaging hardware, including cameras and sensors, image-acquisition boards, timing and trigger systems, and motion control.
• Own development tasks end-to-end, from design through implementation and system integration, working closely with cross-functional teams (software, algorithms, hardware, and process).
• Troubleshoot and
• resolve complex software issues in development and production environments,
• including issues that span software, algorithms, and hardware.
• Ensure high software quality through best practices, clean code, and testing, and improve existing systems by modernizing legacy applications.

Requirements

• B.Sc. in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related field.
• At least 4 years of experience in software development using C# and .NET technologies.
• Experience with C++ in production software.
• Strong understanding of object-oriented programming, software architecture, and design patterns.
• Experience with debugging, performance optimization, and troubleshooting.
• Excellent problem-solving and communication skills.
• Ability to work independently and as part of a team.

Advantages

• Experience with closed-loop control, calibration systems, real-time inspection, image processing, or computer vision (OpenCV or equivalent).
• Knowledge of SQL and database design.
• Experience working with hardware-integrated software systems (industrial cameras, frame grabbers, sensors, FPGA/timing, or motion control).

Attributes

• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
• High level of ownership and accountability.
• Excellent teamwork and interpersonal communication skills.
• Systems-thinking mindset with the ability to understand complex multidisciplinary environments.
