- This role focuses on expanding a messaging-based IoT ecosystem, developing secure connectivity frameworks, and enabling reliable device-to-cloud communication.
- The candidate will work closely with engineering teams to design system architectures, implement connectivity services, and ensure high-quality documentation and knowledge transfer. Requirement/Must Have:
- Strong expertise in C++ and Python for system-level software development.
- Deep understanding of MQTT messaging architecture and broker configuration.
- Knowledge of publish/subscribe and remote procedure call messaging patterns.
- Experience designing and implementing cloud-based components using AWS services.
- Strong understanding of network security including TLS, mutual TLS, certificate management, and device authorization models.
- Ability to produce architecture documentation such as architecture decision records, design specifications, and interface definitions.
- Strong communication skills with the ability to lead design discussions and collaborate with cross-functional teams.
- Ability to work independently and manage technical challenges with minimal supervision. Experience:
- Extensive experience in software engineering.
- Significant experience designing and implementing IoT system architectures.
- Experience working with cloud-based IoT systems and distributed messaging environments. Responsibilities:
- Support the expansion of an MQTT-based IoT architecture across embedded device platforms and cloud infrastructure.
- Produce architecture documentation including architecture decision records, interface contracts, design specifications, and system diagrams.
- Develop connectivity middleware and communication services using C++ and Python on both device and cloud sides.
- Architect and implement cloud-side integrations using AWS microservices including Amazon EC2 and Amazon S3.
- Implement security hardening measures including TLS, mutual TLS, certificate-based device authentication, topic-level authorization, and public key infrastructure lifecycle management.
- Design systems for reliable cloud connectivity including offline buffering, reconnect strategies, message deduplication, and guaranteed delivery patterns for embedded systems.
- Lead and participate in technical design reviews with engineering teams and incorporate feedback into solutions.
- Support debugging and root cause analysis of connectivity issues during integration and testing phases.
- Create comprehensive documentation and conduct knowledge transfer sessions to support long-term system maintenance. Should Have:
- Experience in regulated or safety-critical industries such as medical, aerospace, or industrial environments.
- Experience with asynchronous, event-driven, and multi-threaded system design.
- Familiarity with software risk analysis processes such as Failure Mode and Effects Analysis.
- Experience with cloud monitoring and observability tools such as Amazon CloudWatch.
- Experience designing scalable, production-quality distributed systems. Skills:
- Strong system architecture and IoT design skills.
- Expertise in messaging systems and distributed communication patterns.
- Strong debugging and troubleshooting abilities.
- Excellent technical documentation and design communication skills.
- Strong collaboration and leadership abilities. Qualification And Education:
