About this job
We are currently looking for a Scientific Programmer to join the team in Eindhoven.
As a Scientific Programmer, you will be responsible for developing innovative tooling solutions and creating high-impact demonstrators and prototypes. You’ll work closely with partners to deliver cutting-edge software solutions that drive product development across industries. With a mix of technical expertise, creativity, and problem-solving, you'll bridge the gap between academic research and real-world applications, playing a pivotal role in shaping the future of engineering environments.
Main responsibilities
As Scientific Programmer your day will be divided into Formal Methods and Modelling Control Behaviour and into implementation of the ComMA (Component Modelling and Analysis) projects. This will include, but not limited to:
- Design and implement scalable tooling solutions, seamlessly integrating with partner engineering environments, utilizing cutting-edge technologies like ComMA (Component Modelling and Analysis), Eclipse Foundation, and CI/CD pipelines.
- Lead the creation of prototypes and demonstrators from the ground up, using a broad array of technologies such as HTML, CSS, Node.js, React, Python, and Java.
- Work closely and collaborate with partners and internal teams to understand project needs, analyze requirements, and develop tailored solutions using Formal Methods and modeling control behavior.
- Design and develop robust software solutions that streamline product development cycles, focusing on scalability, performance, and innovation throughout various project stages.
- Leverage academic research in fields such as BPMN, Petri nets, and automata to create practical, scalable solutions that advance the state of the art in industry applications.
- Drive innovation by continuously optimizing tools and processes, integrating version control (GIT), deployment, and packaging solutions into the development lifecycle.
- Contribute to cross-functional teams, bringing excellent analytical and problem-solving skills to the table to tackle complex challenges and deliver high-quality, impactful solutions.
Requirements
- A Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related field.
- Proven hands-on experience in scientific programming and software development, with a strong background in Python, Java, and HTML/CSS/Node.js/React.
- Deep knowledge of Formal Methods, modeling control behavior, and ComMA tooling (Eclipse-based). Experience in Eclipse DSL technologies (Xtext, Xtend) for grammar development, M2M/M2Text generators, and content assist.
- Proven experience in creating prototypes and demonstrators, from concept through to implementation, showcasing your skills in developing both frontend and backend solutions.
- Familiarity with high-tech industry product development processes (e.g., BPMN, Petri nets, automata) is a plus.
- Strong ability to analyze complex problems, think critically, and offer practical, innovative solutions in high-pressure environments.
- Exceptional communication skills, with the ability to collaborate effectively with diverse teams and independently manage tasks and challenges.
Our story
At S[&]T we contribute to a safer life on earth by translating space data into valuable and actionable insights. We oversee data from instruments to application, and apply our expertise within our software frameworks, information products and consultancy.
Our society relies on space and scientific instruments for climate change monitoring, navigation, defence and national security, and other crucial services we all use in our daily lives. These instruments produce an enormous quantity of complex data, and our goal is to unlock its value.
We have more than 20 years of experience working on instrument calibration, the creation of data quality monitoring tools, the development of real-time data processing frameworks, and the development of application-specific algorithms. With this, we help organisations, governments and industries to strengthen their information position and thereby improve their decision making. We focus on the following domains: Space & Science, Defence & Security, Environment & Sustainability, and High-Tech Consulting.
Sensing problems. Developing solutions.
Our Sensing and Control Systems provide new insights and access to what is happening in harsh environments. Scientific Data Processing ensures that you get the most out of the world's most under-utilized precious resource: data. We can then turn that data into smart decisions with our Intelligent Software Applications. Or if you need on-site support, we have…

Taking the R&D Journey Together
Research and development projects are usually long-term investments in complex systems involving stringent requirements, formalized relationship structures and interfaces, and highly impactful project phases and team scaling. It is important to have an experienced partner that is in it for the long haul. At S[&]T, we are relationship driven, and think not only about the first steps toward partnership, but the long-term win-win-win. We have flexible methods of partnering, and are able to support R&D via projects, personnel and products, depending on which method provides the best solution. Our open communication style and people-driven methods create smooth interfaces and ensure that we are a dependable partner through thick and thin.
Meant to be at S[&]T
At S[&]T, relationships always come first, and we treat our employees like we would like to be treated. We understand that smart people need flexibility, challenging projects, open communication and a motivating career path. If you would like to choose your own adventure when it comes to building a role that is right for you, we are here to support you along the way. Our flat structure and direct connections in a variety of R&D settings provides you with plenty of opportunity, while we also work hard to ensure that we create a fun environment along the way.
