Manage and monitor edge infrastructure and applications centrally, working with open-source monitoring tools such as Prometheus, Grafana, and ELK stack. Design edge-infrastructure to work in both online and offline environments. Utilize virtualization technologies including KubeVirt, Linux kernel virtual machine (KVM) and Hyper-V. Create build-pipelines and employ GitOps to automate software building, testing and deployment, with proficiency in DevOps methodologies and tools such as Azure DeveOps and Jenkins. Use automation technologies such as Terraform and Ansible for infrastructure deployment, with proficiency in IaC (Infrastructure as Code) and CI/CD (Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment) practices. Create Kubernetes applications in resource-constrained environments, developing microservices and containerization of legacy applications. Deploy algorithms on edge-infrastructure with real-time monitoring, and expertise in pub/sub technologies, such as Apache Kafka, ZeroMQ and RabbitMQ. Work with pub/sub systems for message communications among microservices, with knowledge of message brokers, such as MQTT Mosquito and RabbitMQ. Work with Bash, Python, Go, Java and .Net. Debug and profile programs with proficiency. Understand software architecture and the trade-offs between different approaches. Troubleshoot issues with field users and perform network troubleshooting, with network protocols, such as TCP/IP, UDP, HTTPS, DNS. Work with hardware protocols such as Modbus, CAN bus, OPC or similar protocols. Ensure security of edge-devices and perform security scanning of software, with knowledge of secure coding practices, encryption, and authentication. Manage secrets on devices using a centralized approach, with knowledge of secrets management tools, such as HashiCorp Vault. Apply authentication and identity management in cloud providers such as Google Cloud and Azure. Evaluate new technologies for potential incorporation in the software infrastructure ecosystem, with knowledge of emerging trends in cloud computing, IoT, AI/ML, and cybersecurity. Collaborate with architects to standardize common infrastructure for business needs and have excellent communication and leadership skills to drive the adoption of new technologies and processes. Consult with program and project managers on the realization of edge applications, with excellent project management skills and experience in creating and realizing project plans and schedules. Manage a team of software, system, and full stack developers, with experience in agile project management methodologies and techniques. Implement architectural improvements to infrastructure, with knowledge of architectural patterns and anti-patterns, and their trade-offs in terms of scalability, maintainability, and cost. Work with field teams globally deployed in order to validate and adjust developed technologies. Need to understand how field operations works and be able to interact efficiently with sustaining, operation and operation integrity field teams. Follow field test and ensure product is able to deliver all committed features and capabilities. Guide edge infrastructure choices using deep understanding of Linux systems and computer architecture, including low-level knowledge of Linux system composition and operations, including networking, storage, and memory management.MINIMUM EDUCATION:PhD in Computer Engineering or related specialty.MINIMUM EXPERIENCE:5 years (60 months) as Software Engineer or related occupation.SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS/SKILLS:5 years as Software Engineer or related occupation working with cybersecurity, software, hypervisor, connectivity, hardware, and Field Delivery workflow for wireline, testing, slickline. 5 years as Software Engineer or related occupation working with a field project in the oil and gas industry with the following skills:Knowledge of programming languages such as C/C++, Java, PythonKnowledge of Linux system administration and Linux network troubleshootingMust have previous experience in technology research and broad solution selection in the field of AI, ML and cybersecurityExperience with different processing architectures including CPU, GPU and FPGAExperience developing embedded systemsBackground or experience with device electronicsExperience in software-hardware product developmentExperience working with an international team and supported oil & gas field operations, and involving interdisciplinary projectsIn charge of issue tracking in digital productKnowledge of Kubernetes, Rancher, Terraform, docker, hypervisor, messaging systems.MAY TELECOMMUTE
