Volta Labs is a pioneering applications company that is revolutionizing the field of genomics. As a Boston-based, venture-backed biotech startup, we make extracting vital information from biological samples as simple as pressing a button through our flagship product Callisto. Our product accelerates processing time for scientists and increases accessibility to critical genetic information for patients. We sit at the intersection of science and engineering, inviting you to join us on our journey to shape the future of genomics, where insatiable curiosity is encouraged and every team member makes an impact.
The TeamYou'll be part of a team of innovative thinkers who love to experiment, collaborate, and win together. We are passionate about pushing the boundaries of automation, biology, computing, robotics, design, and user experience to benefit our customers and the world. As a Principal Instrument Software Engineer, you will report to the Head of Electrical and Software Engineering and be a primary architect, mentor, developer, and trusted interdisciplinary partner within Volta. Your areas of work will include firmware, instrument control, real-time video processing, and telemetry.

This technical lead position is ideal for a seasoned software engineer who wants technical ownership of a complex electromechanical and biomechanical product.
Day-to-Day and Year 1Our team splits their time on average 30% in meetings like standups, strategy sessions, and brainstorms, and 70% hands-on work, be it designing, coding, testing, and debugging, or code reviews. You will partner with non-software stakeholders such as the Hardware, manufacturing, Product, and Biology teams to outline requirements and design for new processes to build into the Volta instrument. You will facilitate the successful launch of the Volta system and participate as a key player early on in the company's evolution. You will design, develop, test, and implement code for the new processes, then iterate with various interdisciplinary partners to ensure we meet KPIs. You will influence improvements for next-generation biology systems to both improve quality, features, complexity, and reduce cost. You will identify new data points to capture for performance measurement, maintain data accuracy, and continuously improve outcomes in a data-driven way. You will facilitate hardware bring-up and failure analysis. Regularly, you will get your hands dirty on hardware.
Key Responsibilities- Partner with cross-functional peers and senior leadership to outline immediate priorities for Callisto software development and start executing on them.
- Craft the 12-month roadmap for Callisto capabilities with the product and biology teams and be actively supporting architectural decisions and technical conversations at a strategic level.
- Influence software development practices and hygiene.
- Participate in hiring decisions, onboard fellow engineers, and ship multiple new chemical process capabilities to Callisto's software.
- Continued software development and improvements.
- Influence future systems designs, including SW pipelines, SW infrastructures, device SW architectures, and hardware component selection.

You have demonstrated experience in creating software best practices. You have demonstrated experience balancing good quality practices and delivering. You are a solutions-oriented contributor with a bias towards action over perfection. You have a deep understanding of modern Python capabilities for robotics or electromechanical device applications. You have a deep understanding of real-time embedded systems within Linux or POSIX-like operating systems environments. You have a deep understanding of bare metal MCU applications in C/C++ or Rust. A desire to be hands-on writing code. You are comfortable with hardware and can read schematics. Acting as a technical and cultural leader for a team that is actively growing, learning, and looking for mentorship and direction.
