Prin Software Engineer

Description

The closing date for applications is 20 Nov 2026.

This is a Principal Software Engineer role for the Endoscopy OU, where you will develop medical device software.

The company is a healthcare technology business with staff in more than 150 countries.

The role sits in the technical specialist career stream as an individual contributor who advances existing technology or brings in new technology and therapies.

You will formulate, deliver and manage assigned projects, working with stakeholders to reach the intended results, and you may mentor colleagues or direct the work of more junior professionals.

Most of your time goes to R&D, systems or initiatives on new technologies or therapies, from design through implementation, within company policy and using specialist skills.

You will work with considerable independence as a recognised expert on large projects or processes, deciding the deliverables with limited oversight from your manager.

You will help set the direction for new products, processes, standards or operational plans based on business strategy, with significant influence on your work group.

The problems you face are difficult and not fully defined, so you will gather and analyse detailed information, then design and implement solutions.

You will be the main contact for specific projects and talk with internal and external customers and vendors at many levels, negotiating where needed and influencing decisions.

You will coach, train and guide others in your area and lead major or moderately complex projects, sometimes acting as team lead.
