Scientific Software Developer

Join the Carlsberg Research Laboratory (CRL) in Copenhagen and help us build the software that accelerates scientific discovery. We are rethinking how research is done by embedding software and AI directly into real-world scientific workflows across domains such as chemistry, bioinformatics, sensory science, and machine learning.

What you’ll be doing

You will design and build the systems that power modern research, from data pipelines to AI-enabled tools. You won’t just prototype ideas. You’ll turn them into reliable, production-grade software used by scientists every day.

Build and own end-to-end scientific software systems
Develop automation that removes manual research workflows
Integrate modern AI capabilities into real-world applications
Work closely with domain experts across sensory science, chemistry, and bioinformatics to translate research needs into scalable software
Translate complex scientific problems into clean, scalable technical solutions
Ship quickly, iterate, and continuously improve

What we’re looking for

Master’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related technical field, or equivalent experience; a PhD is a plus
Strong foundation in software engineering and system design
Experience building scalable systems, APIs, and data pipelines
Familiarity with AI/ML systems and modern AI tools and SDKs

You:

You have experience building systems from scratch
Are comfortable working at the intersection of software and real-world experimentation
Communicate effectively with both engineers and domain experts
Are excited to learn new scientific domains
You are comfortable working in evolving problem spaces

What you can expect

You will join a multidisciplinary team working at the intersection of software, AI, and science. You will build systems that reduce manual work, improve reproducibility, and accelerate how quickly research turns into real-world impact. You will have the opportunity to collaborate with domain specialists in the world of bioinformatics, sensory science, chemistry, and machine learning.

You can expect a fixed-term contract for three years.
