We don’t just build technology. We build hope for everyone dealing with Cancer.

Are you passionate about creating scalable, cloud-native platforms that truly make a difference in people’s lives? At Elekta, we’re pioneering the next generation of oncology systems — and we’re looking for a Senior Software Engineer to help shape the software platform that will power all future Elekta products.

As part of our Enterprise Shared Component team, you’ll:

  • Design and develop containerised services in a service-oriented architecture using Docker, Kubernetes, REST APIs, and Azure.

  • Design and implement APIs and microservices with a focus on scalability, compatibility, and performance.

  • Contribute to full-stack development, from modern web UIs to backend services and data solutions.

  • Improve CI/CD pipelines and work with Docker, Kubernetes, and Azure DevOps to streamline delivery.

  • Apply cross-functional skills in development and test automation to ensure high-quality solutions.

  • Collaborate, share knowledge, and drive innovation that makes a difference for healthcare professionals and patients.

The right stuff:

  • Experience of working with Agile delivery processes – understanding of SAFe framework and agile practices

  • Strong technical communication skills, and the ability to influence others with articulation and insight

What you bring:

*We encourage you to apply even if you don’t meet every requirement—your unique skills and experiences might be exactly what we're looking for!  

  • • Bachelor’s degree in computer science (or equivalent experience).

  • • 5+ years of software engineering experience, ideally with .NET (C#) and modern frameworks.

  • • Strong skills in building APIs and microservices (REST, gRPC) and working with databases (PostgreSQL).

  • • Frontend experience with Angular, JavaScript, HTML5, CSS3.

  • • Hands-on experience with Docker, Kubernetes, and CI/CD pipelines (Azure DevOps or similar).

  • • Familiarity with open-source tools, cloud platforms, and infrastructure automation.

  • • Understanding of software design patterns, asynchronous programming, and event-driven systems.

  • • Bonus: experience in regulated industries (healthcare preferred), cybersecurity best practices, and observability tools.

What you’ll get:

In this role, you will work for a higher purpose; hope for everyone dealing with cancer, and for everyone regardless of where in the world, to have access to the best cancer care. In addition to this, Elekta offers a range of benefits.

  • Up to 25 paid vacation days (plus bank holidays)
