Research Software Engineer

Job DescriptionImaging of the eye is widely used for research in ophthalmology and beyond. The possibilities for image analysis are increasing rapidly as AI progresses. However, much of these developments have not reached the actual researchers or are only available in proprietary commercial systems. At Erasmus MC we work on open-source software to empower researchers working with imaging, to make the best use of their valuable data and implement open science practices.As a research software engineer, you will work on software infrastructure for research with medical imaging, specifically in ophthalmology. The goal is to enable researchers to curate, analyze and share imaging data in a national cloud solution.You will get the opportunity to contribute to a variety of levels, dividing the work within the team based on interest and expertise. From cloud-deployment and dev-ops to database design, API, user-interface and documentation. Contact with users, such as clinical researchers, will be an important part of the work.
