Junior Industrial Software Developer

Apply for this position
  • Full-Time
  • In-Person
  • From $60,000 a year
  • Pickering, ON L1W 3G8

Join the Argo-Verse and Build machines with us.

Buskro Ltd. has been providing innovative solutions to the mailing, packaging and printing industries since 1976. With nearly 50 years of expertise, we design and manufacture industrial inkjet systems and print automation equipment used around the world.

In short, we build machines.

We don’t build websites. We don’t build accounting software.

We build machines that move, print, inspect, communicate with sensors, and control industrial hardware in real time.

If you enjoy solving problems where software interacts directly with electronics, motion systems and mechanical equipment, you’ll fit in well here.

About the Role

We are looking for a Junior Industrial Software Developer. Depending on your experience, you will participate in the design, development and maintenance of software controlling industrial printing and automation equipment. You will work closely with mechanical, electrical and firmware engineers on products that integrate:

  • Industrial inkjet technology
  • Motion control
  • Machine automation
  • Vision systems
  • PLCs
  • Windows desktop applications
  • Windows kernel drivers
  • Embedded hardware

Every day is different. One week you may improve a modern C++ UI, the next you may debug communications with industrial hardware or optimize a Windows kernel driver.

What You’ll Work On

  • Modern C++ application development
  • Windows desktop software (UI/UX)
  • Windows kernel-mode driver development
  • Industrial communication protocols
  • PLC integration and machine automation
  • Motion control systems
  • Vision and imaging systems
  • Real-time interaction with hardware
  • Diagnostics and performance optimization
  • Software architecture and product design

 

Required Skills

  • Strong C/C++ programming skills
  • Good understanding of object-oriented design
  • Strong debugging and problem-solving abilities
  • Comfortable working close to hardware
  • Interest in industrial automation and machine control
  • Good communication and teamwork skills

 

Experience In One or More of the Following is an Asset

  • Windows Kernel Driver development
  • PLC programming (Beckhoff, Siemens, Allen-Bradley, Omron, etc.)
  • Motion control
  • Industrial Ethernet / EtherCAT / CAN / Modbus / OPC-UA
  • Serial communication
  • FPGA interaction / Embedded systems
  • Computer Vision / Industrial cameras
  • Multi-threaded programming
  • UI/UX development
  • Windows API
  • Git

 

Education

Bachelor’s degree in:

  • Computer Engineering
  • Software Engineering
  • Computer Science
  • Mechatronics
  • Electrical Engineering

Equivalent experience will also be considered.

 

Who Will Enjoy This Job

This position is for developers who enjoy making physical machines work.

If your passion is primarily web development, mobile apps, cloud platforms, ERP systems or business software, this role is probably not a good fit.

If your passion is around industrial automation, robotics, motion control, machine vision, embedded systems, electronics, or software that directly interacts with hardware, you’ll feel at home here.

 

What We Offer

  • Work on products shipped worldwide
  • Modern C++ development
  • Exposure to mechanics, electronics and industrial automation
  • Small engineering team where your work has immediate impact
  • Opportunity to work across software, hardware and machine design
  • Long-term product development rather than contract work
  • A great work environment for autonomous player

 

Pay: From $60,000.00 per year

Application question(s):

  • Have you developed software that directly controls industrial equipment, machinery, robotics, PLCs, embedded devices, or hardware?
  • How many years of professional C++ experience do you have?
  • Describe one project where your software interacted directly with hardware or industrial equipment.
