at Eurofins

🏢 About Eurofins

Eurofins is a global leader in analytical testing services, uniquely positioned at the intersection of science and technology to promote safer, healthier, and more sustainable environments worldwide. Working here means contributing to meaningful projects that directly impact public health and environmental protection through cutting-edge laboratory solutions.

About This Role

This Software Engineer role focuses on developing end-to-end web applications for Laboratory Information Management Systems (LIMS) using Microsoft stack technologies. You'll be building next-generation applications that support scientists and technicians in documenting research and experiments, making this role impactful by directly enabling scientific discovery and quality assurance processes.

💡 A Day in the Life

A typical day involves collaborating with global engineering teams to develop LIMS features using .NET and Angular, participating in AGILE ceremonies via TFS, and solving technical challenges that help scientists document experiments more efficiently. You might spend the morning debugging a performance issue in MSSQL, then design a new SOA component in the afternoon to support laboratory workflow automation.

🎯 Who Eurofins Is Looking For

  • Has 2-4 years of hands-on experience with Microsoft technologies (.NET, C#, ASP.NET, MVC, WebAPI) and modern front-end frameworks (Angular 2+, TypeScript)
  • Demonstrates practical experience with n-tier architectures, SOA projects, and Laboratory Information Management Systems (LIMS) or scientific applications
  • Possesses strong understanding of OOP, SOLID principles, design patterns, and can troubleshoot performance issues in enterprise applications
  • Has worked in AGILE/SCRUM environments with TFS and is comfortable collaborating with global engineering teams to solve technical problems

📝 Tips for Applying to Eurofins

1

Highlight specific experience with Laboratory Information Management Systems (LIMS) or scientific/analytical software in your resume

2

Quantify your Microsoft stack experience - specify which versions of .NET, C#, and Angular you've worked with and for how long

3

Mention any experience with TFS (Team Foundation Server) and how you've used it in AGILE/SCRUM environments

4

Include examples of performance troubleshooting you've done in web applications, especially with MSSQL optimization

5

Demonstrate understanding of how software supports scientific workflows - even if indirectly through previous projects

✉️ What to Emphasize in Your Cover Letter

['Explain your interest in developing software for scientific and laboratory applications specifically', "Highlight experience with Microsoft stack technologies and how you've used them in enterprise environments", 'Describe your approach to solving technical problems within a global team context', 'Mention any exposure to or understanding of analytical testing, laboratory workflows, or regulated environments']
