The Photovoltaics and Thin Film Electronics Laboratory (PV-Lab) at EPFL is seeking a motivated Software Engineer to take responsibility for its monitoring platform and dashboards, and to lead a work package within a Horizon Europe project.

Based in Neuchâtel, you will develop reliable software that turns data from photovoltaic installations, weather stations and laboratory experiments into useful information for researchers and project partners.

You will combine hands-on development with project coordination in an international, multidisciplinary team with strong links to CSEM and industry.

Main duties and responsibilities

You will:

Take ownership of the PV-Lab monitoring platform and dashboards, including maintenance, troubleshooting and further development. Work with colleagues and users to define requirements and prioritize improvements. Ensure traceability and consistent metadata.

Develop applications to collect, validate, process and store data from monitoring sites, sensors and external APIs. Ensure data quality and reliable operation.

Manage containerized applications using Docker and Kubernetes, and automate builds and deployments through GitLab CI/CD. Maintain logging, alerts, backups and secure configuration in coordination with EPFL IT.

Lead Horizon Europe work packages: coordinate partners and tasks, plan resources, track milestones and risks, and ensure timely delivery of technical deliverables and progress reports. Organize meetings and represent the work package in project discussions.

Write maintainable, tested and documented code. Support researchers using the platform and share technical knowledge within PV-Lab.

Participate in internal scientific meetings and seminars, as well as local and international conferences. Contribute to writing scientific papers in collaboration with PV-Lab researchers and project partners.

Supervise and mentor students working on software development, monitoring and data analysis, helping them plan their projects, review their code and interpret their results.
