Senior Software Engineer – Software as a Medical Device (w/m/d) 80–100 %

Universitätsklinik Balgrist • Switzerland, zurich • Posted June 11, 2026

About the Role

The Spine Biomechanics Lab at Balgrist University Hospital is a translational research environment at the interface of engineering, software development, and spine surgery. We combine clinical insight, image-based analysis, computational modelling, and biomechanical evidence to develop solutions that can directly support surgical decision-making and improve patient care.

With SpinePlanner, we are advancing patient-specific software for spinal fusion surgery in close collaboration with an associated MedTech spin-off. The platform combines medical imaging, planning workflows, biomechanical assessment and optimization to support surgeons from preoperative planning to surgical execution.

We are now looking for an experienced software engineer with a strong background in regulated MedTech software development to help develop SpinePlanner from a clinically driven technology platform into a robust, validated, and scalable medical device software product.
