Our culture puts our team members first and prioritizes actions that support happiness, inspiration and engagement. We strive to build meaningful connections with each other as we believe that employee happiness and business success are linked. Join us in our mission to transform the power of diagnostics into a healthier future for all.

In this role, you will be a senior contributor to multiple small teams focused on the design and implementation of QuidelOrtho’s cloud-based systems that support our medical diagnostic instruments across all business units. QuidelOrtho currently has more than 100,000 instruments deployed worldwide and continues to add to its market share with new and existing instruments. As our instrument population grows, so does our need for increased instrument functionality and modularity. As a part of the software team, you will be central to supporting and building new capabilities for these instruments and cloud-based systems. From customer facing web applications, through cloud services that accept millions of test results, media files and diagnostic logs, to internal tools used by our chemistry and lab personnel – we use the right technology for the job. We are actively working on new initiatives including a common software test framework and a data consolidation and visualization framework to be used across all instruments and platforms. The team is modernizing the software across all our instruments to ensure we are prepared for our further expansion into international and domestic markets. We are driving this modernization by implementing modularized architecture methods, building up our instrument and cloud interconnectivity including fleet management and instrument performance data, and enhancing cybersecurity and test automation.
