Key responsibilities and technical requirements for a senior sensor systems architecture lead.

• System Architecture & Integration: Own end‑to‑end architecture for sensor ingestion, edge compute, messaging, and backend services; ensure seamless integration across hardware, edge and cloud using secure messaging and microservices patterns.
• Industrial Connectivity & Real‑Time Systems: Lead integration and onboarding of field devices and PLCs; design deterministic data paths and low‑latency telemetry pipelines.
• Security & Compliance (IT/OT): Implement role‑based access control, certificate management, secure network segmentation and broker hardening to maintain system hygiene and protect sensitive telemetry.
• Edge & Cloud Operations: Architect resilient edge deployments with container orchestration; implement failsafe HA where necessary.
• Backend & DevOps: Guide backend engineering (serverless and containerised) and infrastructure‑as‑code; ensure scalability, performance and cost efficiency aligned with WOG policies and best practices.
• Observability & Reliability: Define SLIs/SLOs, telemetry and incident response playbooks; lead performance tuning and capacity planning to meet real‑time monitoring requirements.
• Stakeholder & Standards Engagement: Collaborate with operations teams; constantly engage stakeholders to understand their operational needs in the sensor environment monitoring domain; contribute to technical evaluations and governance processes.
• Architecture Governance & Security Assurance: Establish architecture decision records (ADRs); lead periodic security assessments and readiness exercises across IT/OT interfaces.

• Bachelors degree in Computer/Software/Electrical & Electronic Engineering or equivalent.
• 5+ years hands‑on experience delivering sensor‑related systems in production, including at least 2 years of IT/OT integrations at scale.
• 3+ years of leading an IT/OT project team.
• Strong technical aptitude, including excellent troubleshooting and communications skills.
• Experience in mission‑critical environments (transport/weather/public safety) where availability, latency and security are paramount.
• Experience in backend integration with cloud based platforms in AWS/Azure would be an advantage.
• Clear stakeholder communication; ability to translate operational needs into technical architectures and delivery roadmaps.
• Mentorship and technical leadership across multi‑disciplinary teams (sensors, edge, backend, security).
• Relevant industry certification in systems engineering would be an advantage.

• Experience with industrial communication protocols (Modbus, EtherCAT, ADS, etc.).
• Proficiency with secure communications and identity (TLS certificate management, RADIUS/LDAP integration) and hardened messaging brokers (e.g., MQTT/AMQP).
• Edge orchestration with containers (e.g. Docker Swarm or Kubernetes at the edge).
• Strong programming skills (e.g. C++, Python, Java) in both edge and backend cloud‑based systems.
• Well‑versed in IT/OT solutioning in the environment monitoring domain space.
• Experience in industrial cybersecurity practices (e.g., secure network segmentation, endpoint hardening) preferred.
