Job Summary:
Ready for the job that challenges and encourages you to get the best out of yourself? Do you feel at home in a highly innovative R&D environment? Then join our team at Cognex!
This role is in the Products and Platforms organization, responsible for creating the most sophisticated industrial barcode readers in the world. We combine custom hardware, specialized lighting and optics, and world class vision algorithms to create embedded systems for reading barcodes. Using these systems, we can find and read high-density symbols on package labels or marked directly on a variety of industrial parts, including aircraft engines, electronics substrates, and pharmaceuticals test equipment. Our devices need to read hundreds of codes per minute, so the team needs to optimize both hardware and software to create best in class technology.
We are offering a comprehensive package of both interesting and challenging work, fun, and reward:
  • Work as part of one of the fastest growing and most successful companies in the industry. This growth translates into new challenges, and the option to maybe lead one of our growing teams.
  • Join a warm, informal and personable culture with monthly events and quarterly activities to strengthen the team.

  • Based on your work experience we’re offering opportunities ranging from a six-month internship with subsequent Master thesis, up to positions for principal software engineers eager to change our architecture.

Just some loose terms to show that we are buzzword-proof: multi-national development teams, heterogeneous multi-core system, real-time applications, industry 4.0. Sounds exciting, right?
