Job Description
The Connectivity Software team is in charge of design, develop and maintain SW components that enable customers to connect Datalogic scanners to third-party devices (i.e., PLCs in industrial applications and POS Systems in retail applications) through standard communication interfaces and protocols. The engineer we are looking for will be primarily involved in R&D projects related to industrial-connectivity SW components.
His/her main duties and responsibilities will be:
* Contribute to design and develop Industrial-Connectivity SW libraries, typically based on third‑party Fieldbus and IoT protocol implementations. These libraries are intended to enable communication of Datalogic industrial scanners with the customer's infrastructure (PLCs, SCADA, PC, etc.) through protocols like PROFINET/IO, Ethernet-IP, and OPC-UA.
* Facilitate adoption of the above-mentioned Industrial-Connectivity SW libraries by new Datalogic industrial scanners and DataSensing devices under development. This task includes implementation of the new requested functionalities and support during the library integration and product certification phases.
* Contribute to maintain the above-mentioned Industrial-Connectivity SW libraries by ensuring fix of any open defects, upgrade to new possible revisions of integrated protocols, and support to eventually recertificate products adopting these libraries.
* Contribute to design, develop, and maintain PLC applications intended to run validation tests of the above-mentioned Industrial-Connectivity SW libraries and pre‑certification tests of Datalogic/DataSensing products that adopt them.
* Contribute to maintain proprietary OPOS and JavaPOS drivers aimed to enable communication of Datalogic retail scanners with POS computers running Windows or Linux operating system.
* Perform assigned SW engineering activities always following well-established Software Quality Assurance (SQA) principles and best-practices.
* Research new technologies potentially providing a competitive advantage to the next generation product.
Requirements:
* Education: Master's Degree in Computer, Electronic or Automation Engineering
* Languages: Italian and English (intermediate or better)
* Experience: more than three years of hands-on experience in embedded SW engineering, object‑oriented design, and C/C++ programming
Specific Knowledge and Experience:
* Good command of object-oriented design and programming in C, C++, and Python language
* Good command of multi-threaded programming
* Proven experience in design and development of software for embedded systems, based on Linux or real-time operating system
* Good knowledge of well‑established Software-Quality-Assurance principles and best-practices
* Proven proficiency in most common debugging, profiling, and code analysis tools
* Good knowledge of TCP\IP network protocols and related analysis tools like Wireshark
* Hands-on experience in PLC programming through CoDeSys, by using Ladder, ST, or alternative languages, is highly preferred
* Knowledge of DevOps tools (Git, Docker, and Jenkins) and CI/CD principles and best-practices is highly preferred.
