We're looking for a Edge Platform Engineer to help operate and modernize one of the world's largest industrial edge computing deployments.

You'll work with a fleet of more than 100,000 connected edge devices running Docker-based applications in challenging real-world environments where connectivity is intermittent, bandwidth is constrained, and devices may remain offline for extended periods.

This role combines Docker platform engineering, edge computing, networking, deployment automation, troubleshooting, and customer collaboration. You'll work directly with enterprise customers and our engineering team to solve complex operational problems at scale.

If you've worked with industrial IoT, edge gateways, manufacturing systems, mining, energy, transportation, or other distributed edge environments, we'd love to hear from you.
