Job Description

Role summary


Design, build, and deliver software for Nexxis, our platform for the integrated digital operating room. Drive our evolution from pure AVoIP switching to application-centric orchestration that improves surgical team workflows in the operating room—integrating GPU-enabled applications and smart surgical displays as first-class Nexxis managed entities.


What you’ll do



  • Drive and evolve the Nexxis NMS server architecture toward application-centric orchestration while strengthening testing, automation, and security-by-design

  • Design, build, and evolve our Kotlin/Spring Boot services and GraphQL/REST APIs; contribute to essential Vue based user flows

  • Extend Nexxis NMS to discover, provision, monitor, and update applications and smart surgical displays

  • Contribute to the Technical File for the Nexxis medical device (requirements/design inputs and outputs, verification evidence, risk-related items, traceability)

  • Collaborate closely with Product Management, Quality Assurance, User Experience Design, and the other Nexxis engineering teams; coach and unblock peers through design reviews and hands-on pairing


Core technical skills



  • Kotlin/Java, Spring Boot; strong object-oriented design and design patterns

  • GraphQL (must-have) and REST API design and evolution

  • Vue JavaScript for front-end contributions

  • SQL and messaging / event-driven patterns

  • CI/CD, automated testing (unit, system testing), Jenkins, Docker/containers

  • Security fundamentals

  • Networking for AVoIP: multicast, IGMP, VLAN...


Nice to have



  • GPU / accelerated computing (for example, NVIDIA IGX, Holoscan) and integration of AI inference pipelines

  • Interest in Agentic Engineering practices

  • Experience with Cloud software (AWS, Azure...)


Profile



  • Bachelor’s or Master’s in Computer Science/Engineering (or equivalent) with 6+ years in software engineering

  • Clear communicator, collaborative, and strong problem solver; comfortable shaping technical direction through hands-on delivery

  • Habit of continuous learning: quickly dives into and masters diverse frameworks, languages, and tools beyond the stacks above; selects technology pragmatically for the problem at hand and actively shares learnings

  • Interest in developing software under medical-device standards (for example, IEC 62304/ISO 13485 principles with risk-aware documentation and traceability)

  • Experience with Scrum/Agile development practices (backlog refinement, sprint reviews, iterative delivery, and team retrospectives)


Your Impact


Improve operating-room workflows for surgical teams on the Nexxis platform—paving the way for AI- and compute-powered applications that enhance safety, efficiency, and patient care.
