Job description

Software Engineer (Data & Video Systems)

At Lumenalta, we partner with visionary organizations to build technology that makes a real impact. Our teams work at the intersection of engineering, science, and innovation—delivering solutions that are modular, testable, and designed to last. If you’re excited about building systems used in labs and research institutions worldwide, this is the role for you.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Develop tools for video storage, data analysis, and visualization
  • Maintain and optimize CI / CD pipelines (GitLab CI)
  • Collaborate with researchers, hardware engineers, and cross‑functional teams
  • Drive the transition from legacy systems to modern architectures
  • Own the process end‑to‑end—from idea through deployment
  • Front‑end : TypeScript + Web Components (minimal frameworks)
  • Ops : Docker, GitLab CI, Linux‑first
  • Video : GStreamer, FFmpeg
  • Storage : S3‑compatible object storage, Apache Iceberg (early stage)
  • Data formats : JSON, CSV, Markdown, MCAP

What We’re Looking For

  • 3+ years of experience in software development
  • Strong background with Python, Docker, and Linux (CLI, processes, debugging)
  • Familiarity with video / audio frameworks such as GStreamer or FFmpeg
  • Experience with automation and data systems
  • Interest in scientific tooling, hardware integration, or AV systems
  • Strong communication and collaboration skills
  • This is a fully remote position open to candidates based in Europe or regions with compatible time zones. Candidates must maintain a 6‑hour overlap with Eastern U.S. business hours to ensure effective collaboration with our client and team.

    This is an evergreen opening with no set deadline; we’re always excited to connect with professionals who want to help us build the future.
