Senior Java Developer -Thermo-Calc Software
Thermo-Calc Software is looking for a Senior Java Developer to work on a complex, long-lived product used by world-leading engineering companies — where your expertise will make a real impact.
About the role
Thermo-Calc Software develops advanced software used by engineers and researchers worldwide to simulate and analyse material properties. Our solutions support industries such as metals, automotive, semiconductors and research, and play an important role in developing the materials and products of the future.
We are now looking for a Senior Java Developer to join our Software Platform team in Solna. In this role, you will primarily work on the continued development of our established desktop application, while also contributing to the evolution of our next-generation platform.
This is a role for someone who wants to work on a product with real-world impact, in an environment where software development meets science and advanced engineering.
Responsibilities
In this role, you will:
Further develop and maintain our Java-based desktop application with a strong focus on GUI
Work within a large, established codebase and contribute to quality, structure and architecture
Participate in the design and development of new features
Collaborate with developers, product owners, and colleagues with backgrounds in physics and materials science
Take part in code reviews, troubleshooting and performance improvements
Contribute to development processes and technical practices within the team
Over time, there will also be opportunities to contribute to the development of our web-based platform.
About you
You are an experienced Java developer who enjoys a role where you both code hands‑on and contribute with structure, technical maturity and long‑term thinking.
You have experience working with larger systems and feel comfortable navigating complex codebases and domain logic. You enjoy working close to the product and want to understand how it is used in practice.
Requirement
Several years of experience in Java development
Experience with Java desktop applications (Swing, JavaFX or similar)
Strong understanding of object‑oriented programming
Experience working with larger codebases
Familiarity with version control and CI tools (e.g. Git)
Good communication skills in English
Preferred qualifications
Experience working with long‑lived or monolithic systems
Understanding of software architecture
Experience with backend development or cloud environments
Experience with container technologies or agile ways of working
As a person, you are curious and solution‑oriented, with a structured approach and a strong focus on quality. You are self‑driven in your work while also valuing collaboration and knowledge sharing within the team. You also have a genuine interest in understanding the bigger picture — not just the code itself, but how the solution is used and the value it creates.
What we offer
The opportunity to work on a unique product used internationally
A technically advanced environment where software meets research and industry
An experienced and international development team
Flexible working hours and hybrid work model
The opportunity to influence technology choices and ways of working
