Senior Labview Developer information

What is a Senior LabVIEW Developer?

Senior LabVIEW Developers are experienced software engineers who specialize in using the LabVIEW graphical programming environment to design, develop, and maintain automated test, measurement, and control systems. They often lead projects, mentor junior developers, and ensure solutions meet technical and business requirements. Their expertise includes advanced LabVIEW architectures, hardware integration, and often certification such as NI Certified LabVIEW Developer (CLD) or Architect (CLA). Senior LabVIEW Developers are commonly found in industries like electronics, manufacturing, and research, where precise data acquisition and automation are critical.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a Senior LabVIEW Developer?

A Senior LabVIEW Developer should have advanced proficiency in LabVIEW programming, strong knowledge of test and measurement systems, and a relevant engineering or computer science degree. Familiarity with National Instruments hardware, certification such as Certified LabVIEW Developer (CLD) or Architect (CLA), and experience with version control systems are typically required. Excellent problem-solving abilities, attention to detail, and effective communication skills help distinguish top performers in this role. These competencies ensure efficient development of robust automated test solutions, seamless integration with hardware, and clear collaboration with multidisciplinary teams.

How does a Senior LabVIEW Developer typically collaborate with cross-functional engineering teams?

Senior LabVIEW Developers frequently work alongside hardware, test, and firmware engineers to design, implement, and refine automated test solutions. They are often responsible for translating complex test requirements into robust LabVIEW code, ensuring seamless data acquisition and integration within multi-disciplinary projects. Effective communication and documentation are key, as Senior Developers must often guide junior team members, participate in code reviews, and contribute to system architecture discussions. This collaborative environment fosters both technical growth and strong teamwork skills.

What is the difference between Senior Labview Developer vs Test Engineer?

AspectSenior Labview DeveloperTest Engineer
Required credentialsBachelor's in Engineering, certifications in LabVIEWBachelor's in Engineering, certifications in testing or quality assurance
Work environmentDesigning and developing LabVIEW applications, embedded systemsTesting hardware/software, developing test plans, troubleshooting
Industry usageAutomation, measurement, control systemsManufacturing, electronics, aerospace

While both roles often require engineering backgrounds and technical certifications, Senior Labview Developers focus on creating and maintaining LabVIEW-based systems, whereas Test Engineers concentrate on testing and quality assurance processes. The roles may overlap in industries like aerospace and automation, but their core responsibilities differ significantly.

Job description

Requisition Id 17025
Overview:
The Electrical, Instrumentation, and Controls Engineering (EICE) group within the Enrichment Science and Engineering Division (ESED) seeks a Senior Instrumentation and Control (I&C) Systems Engineer to develop LabVIEW-based data acquisition, monitoring, and control solutions for enrichment systems and testbeds. ESED serves as the national steward for gas-centrifuge technology and the expansion of the nation's stable-isotope production capabilities. The EI&C group applies modern hardware and software engineering methods to design, integrate, and sustain reliable, high-performance solutions that advance enrichment technologies and isotope-production systems.
The selected candidate will play a key role in designing, fabricating, integrating, and commissioning mission essential instrumentation and control software components, while collaborating closely with multidisciplinary engineering teams to ensure system performance, safety, and operational excellence.
Major Duties/Responsibilities:
  • Develop, maintain, and optimize LabVIEW-based software for data acquisition, monitoring, and control applications across new and existing systems.
  • Lead the design, integration, and deployment of real-time monitoring and control software solutions to enable safe, reliable, and efficient system operations.
  • Manage software products throughout the full application lifecycle, including requirements development, architecture/design implementation, testing, configuration management, and issues management.
  • Collaborate with multidisciplinary engineering teams to translate system requirements into actionable software designs and ensure delivered solutions meet performance and reliability targets
  • Contribute to the design and implementation of DAQ hardware solutions, including electrical interfaces, instrument selection, measurement strategies, time synchronization, and signal conditioning methods.
  • Develop and maintain comprehensive technical documentation, including software design descriptions, configuration management plans, verification test procedures, and user guides.
  • Work closely with management and technical leadership to define work scope and establish project schedules.
  • Prepare systems for installation, support field deployment, and resolve real-time operational issues
  • Ensure all work complies with safety, security, and quality requirements.
  • Participate in continuous improvement initiatives, professional development activities, technical training to strengthen core capabilities.
  • Provide mentorship, technical guidance, and code reviews to promote software engineering best practices within the team.
  • Deliver ORNL's mission by aligning behaviors, priorities, and interactions with our core values of Impact, Integrity, Teamwork, Safety, and Service. Promote equal opportunity by fostering a respectful workplace - in how we treat one another, work together, and measure success.

Basic Qualifications:
  • BS degree or higher in Software Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or closely related engineering discipline.
  • Minimum of 8 years of experience developing industrial monitoring and control applications or high-performance data acquisition applications utilizing National Instruments (NI) hardware platforms or other LabVIEW-based solutions.
  • Demonstrated experience leading software development projects and collaborating with software development teams.
  • Strong proficiency in LabVIEW design patterns, frameworks, modular programming practices, and software-architecture development.
  • Experience developing real-time embedded applications for CompactRIO, PXI/PXIe, sbRIO, or similar IPC/PAC targets.
  • Proficient with standard measurement and test equipment (oscilloscopes, power supplies, DMMs, signal generators, process meters)
  • Experience using modern version-control and CI/DC platforms such as GitHub, GitLab, or Bitbucket.
  • Ability to implement unit testing, author verification and validation (V&V) procedures, and lead structured verification activities.
  • Demonstrated ability to communicate effectively, manage conflicting priorities, and deliver work on schedule
  • Ability to obtain and maintain a DOE Q security clearance which requires US Citizenship.

Preferred Qualifications:
