About the team

Global R&D / Innovation team across the Middle East, Asia, and Europe building next-generation Open Process Automation (OPA) and software-defined automation (SDA) solutions.

The team closes the gap between today's automation systems and tomorrow's open, software-defined plants, turning emerging standards and technologies into solutions.

IT/OT convergence is at the heart of everything the team builds.

The Role

Join a team of automation and software engineering experts.

Design and build Engineered Solutions that address technology gaps and critical customer needs.

Work across both IT and OT systems.

Hands-on technical lead role with no direct reports, for an engineer who loves turning bold ideas into high-impact, real-world innovations.

What You'll Do

  • Set technical direction through design and code reviews, best practices, and mentoring.
  • Lead system design and architecture for OPA, SDA, and IIoT/edge solutions, and build them hands-on across industrial connectivity, control, edge, and IT layers.
  • Oversee lab architecture and infrastructure, including servers, control/edge devices, and CI/CD.
  • Evaluate emerging technologies and standards, and present findings to stakeholders.

Qualifications

  • Bachelor's in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field.
  • 12+ years in engineering or R&D, turning emerging technologies into working solutions.
  • Proven technical leadership in owning the architecture and delivery of complex solutions and mentoring engineers, and familiarity with Agile practices (Scrum/Kanban).
  • Strong system design (microservices, APIs, event-driven architecture, high availability, security by design) and DevOps (Docker, CI/CD, Git, IaC, Windows/Linux, virtualization, networking).
  • Expert in Python or C# and comfortable with the other, writing clean, tested, maintainable code.
  • Proficient in AI-assisted engineering, using AI tools across design, coding, testing, and documentation.
  • Working knowledge of IIoT/edge technologies, including industrial protocols (OPC UA, MQTT, Modbus) and containerized workloads on resource-constrained devices.
  • Standards and R&D: contributing to standards bodies (e.g., Open Group, Margo, OPC Foundation), patents or publications, and conformance and multi-vendor interoperability testing.
  • Infrastructure and security: Active Directory, PKI/X.509 certificates, IEC 62443, monitoring (Redfish, Zabbix, Prometheus, Grafana), and orchestration (Barbara, K3s).
  • Agentic and edge AI: building and deploying agents (agent SDKs, MCP, RAG) to automate engineering and business workflows, on-device inference, and LLM fine-tuning.
  • Industrial hardware: controllers, I/O, gateways, and edge boards; embedded Linux and serial/RS-485.
  • Virtualized and real-time control: containerized control runtimes, real-time Linux, and TSN.

Rewards

  • Total Rewards package designed to help you perform, grow, feel safe, and elevate your potential.
  • Support for caring for yourself and your family, planning your future, growing skills and career, collaborating in an inclusive workplace, and contributing to your community.
  • Country-specific programs and initiatives may be available.
