Job Description

Lead the architecture of cutting-edge IoT edge computing solutions for a global technology leader

Remote — Anywhere in EU

international technology powerhouse and leading supplier of products made from high-tech materials — carbon, technical ceramics, and sintered metals — alongside cutting-edge machines and systems spanning environmental simulation, air-conditioning technology, ultrasonic welding, and optical machines.

We're seeking an exceptional Software Architect to own and evolve our edge computing gateway solution. This role offers a rare opportunity to architect offline-first systems that must operate reliably without internet connectivity for up to 2 years a genuinely unique technical challenge.

What We're Looking For

MANDATORY REQUIREMENTS

  • Bachelor/Master degree or 12+ years equivalent experience
  • 8+ years professional experience in software engineering/architecture
  • 5+ years hands-on experience with Edge Computing / IoT edge systems, ideally Azure IoT Edge in production
  • Very strong .NET (C#) skills — services, modular architectures, robustness patterns
  • Proven experience with offline-first / intermittently connected systems (multi-month to multi-year disconnections)
  • Fluent English (spoken and written)

NICE TO HAVE

  • Solid Azure Portal experience for edge and fleet operations

Key Responsibilities

  • Edge Architecture Ownership: Own and evolve the edge architecture — module structure, interfaces, local runtimes, and operational concepts
  • Offline-First Design: Design for extreme offline scenarios — local workflows, data durability, retention, backfill, conflict handling, and safe re-sync after multi-year outages
  • Azure IoT Edge Operations: Ensure robust operation of Azure IoT Edge modules — deployment strategy, versioning, rollback, monitoring/logging, and troubleshooting
  • Data Architecture: Architect and optimize local persistence and data flows across ~15 modules, including two local databases
  • Performance & Reliability: Drive performance on constrained hardware (quad-core CPU, 8GB RAM, NVMe SSD) — resource management, startup/shutdown behavior, and failure recovery
  • Security Engineering: Establish secure edge patterns — device hardening, secrets handling, certificate strategy, and secure local communication
  • Engineering Excellence: Contribute to team excellence — design reviews, implementation guidance, and root-cause analysis of complex edge issues
