Sr. Software Engineer
Department: Research & Development
Employment Type: Full Time
Location: EMEA-Germany-Darmstadt-Tech
Description
Role summary
This position is ideal for an experienced software engineer specializing in modern web technologies who gets excited about building AI-assisted workflows. You will join a cross-functional team at the Advanced Technology Development team, contributing to a Web 3D application used by thousands of orthodontists worldwide to design Invisalign treatment plans. The stack is React, Three.js, and WebGL on the front end, with a C++ computational engine on AWS at the back. We use tools like Claude Code daily for development, testing, and tooling, and we are actively building AI-powered product features. If you have strong opinions about how AI should reshape the software development lifecycle, you will have a platform to act on them.

Role expectations
- Build and ship 3D interactive features that orthodontists use daily to visualize, manipulate, and refine treatment plans in the browser using React, Three.js, and WebGL.
- Develop with AI as your copilot. We use Claude Code daily for feature development, refactoring, test generation, and code review preparation. You will help define and evolve our AI-augmented development practices.
- Architect frontend systems at scale that handle complex 3D, working with video streams, and seamless integration with a C++ computational backend via AWS services.
- Prototype AI-powered product features such as intelligent treatment suggestions, automated plan validation, and smart UI that adapts to clinical workflows.
- Collaborate across disciplines with clinical scientists, UX designers, ML engineers, and QA to deliver solutions that directly improve patient outcomes
What we're looking for
- BS/MS in Computer Science or equivalent hands-on experience.
- 8+ years of professional software engineering experience with a strong frontend focus.
- Hands-on experience with 3D web technologies: Three.js, WebGL, or equivalent rendering frameworks.
- Enthusiasm for AI-assisted development tools like Claude Code, Copilot, or Cursor and can articulate how AI changes the way you write software.
- Excellent communication skills in English-you can explain complex 3D rendering concepts to a clinical scientist and make it make sense.
- Strong CS fundamentals: algorithms, data structures, system design, and performance optimization.
