Description
We are looking for a talented Sr. IoT Software Engineer to design, configure, and integrate IoT hardware solutions that enable real-time data collection and analysis for construction equipment, driving operational efficiency and customer value.
Please note: This is not a hardware engineering role where new devices are designed or built. This position focuses on the configuration, integration, testing, and optimization of existing industrial IoT hardware within the AlignOps ecosystem.
Responsibilities
- Analyze IoT devices, protocols, and machine-generated data to implement customer-centric solutions
- Evaluate hardware and manufacturer documentation to determine product fit and integration opportunities
- Configure and integrate third-party IoT hardware into AlignOps platforms for production use
- Develop and execute testing strategies, including proof-of-concept and validation testing
- Build and refine scalable processes for deploying and supporting IoT devices at scale
- Collaborate with product owners and engineering teams to meet technical specifications and business requirements
- Design, develop, and optimize software for real-time data exchange and system performance
- Maintain high-quality standards by adhering to engineering best practices and organizational processes
- Stay current with emerging technologies, protocols, and industry advancements in IoT and telematics
- Support cross-functional teams and contribute to continuous improvement initiatives
- Other duties as assigned
Qualifications
- 5+ years of experience in software development with embedded systems or closely related fields
- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or equivalent experience
- Strong understanding of embedded systems concepts (e.g., state machines, RTOS, event-driven programming)
- Experience working with IoT, telematics, GPS systems, or machine-to-machine communication
- Proficiency in Python or similar programming languages and familiarity with relational databases (e.g., MySQL)
- Experience optimizing real-time data transmission, particularly over cellular networks
- Strong analytical, problem-solving, and critical thinking skills
- High attention to detail with the ability to manage complex technical evaluations
- Ability to work independently and collaboratively in a fast-paced environment
- Customer-focused mindset with a commitment to delivering impactful solutions
