Job description

At Analogic, we work together to create life-changing technology. We value your unique skills and abilities and invite you to join our team in saving lives by supplying health care workers with high-tech medical products and transportation security professionals with leading-edge aviation security screening equipment. We offer great benefits, a 9/80 work schedule and career advancement.

Engineering Lead (Platform & Architecture)

We’re looking for a forward-thinking Engineering Lead who’s excited to shape the future of our technology. In this high-impact role, you’ll partner closely with our Chief Architect to bring a bold technical vision to life—leading innovation, modernizing legacy systems, and building scalable, next‑generation platforms.

If you enjoy solving complex challenges, introducing new technologies, and mentoring teams while staying hands‑on, this is an opportunity to make a meaningful impact across our entire engineering ecosystem.

What You’ll Do

Shape the Technical Vision

Collaborate with the Chief Architect to turn strategic ideas into actionable engineering plans. Play a key role in architectural decisions that influence the future of our platform.

Drive Innovation & R&D

Lead efforts to evaluate, experiment with, and adopt emerging technologies—ensuring we stay ahead of the curve and continuously improve our stack.

Modernize Our Platform

Take ownership of transforming legacy systems into a scalable, resilient microservices architecture. You’ll guide both strategy and hands‑on execution.

Stay Hands-On Across the Stack

Design and build high-performance applications using Java, Python, and Go, contributing directly to critical systems.

Elevate DevOps & Infrastructure

Build and optimize infrastructure‑as‑code solutions (Terraform, CloudFormation, Ansible) and streamline CI/CD pipelines using GitLab.

Lead IoT & Cloud Integrations

Drive development of IoT solutions using MQTT and AWS Greengrass, connecting real-world systems to scalable cloud platforms.

Mentor & Inspire

Support and grow junior engineers, champion best practices, and foster a culture of quality, performance, and continuous learning.

Own Container Strategy

Guide containerization and orchestration efforts using modern tools like Docker and Kubernetes.

What You Bring

• Deep Experience: 7–10+ years in software engineering, with a strong foundation in building and scaling systems
• Modern Architecture Expertise: Proven success migrating legacy systems to microservices
• Core Technologies: Strong proficiency in Java (REST APIs, Tomcat) and Python
• DevOps Mindset: Hands-on experience with Terraform, CloudFormation, and Ansible
• CI/CD & Containers: Expertise with GitLab pipelines, Docker, and Kubernetes
• Cloud & IoT Knowledge: Experience with MQTT and AWS Greengrass (AWS certification is a plus)
• Agile Leadership: Experience leading or contributing within Scrum/Agile teams
• Strategic Thinking: Comfortable collaborating with senior leadership on architecture and long-term planning

Nice to Have

• Kubernetes expertise
• Experience with OpenTelemetry (OTEL)
• Exposure to additional cloud platforms

Why This Role Stands Out

• High impact: Influence architecture and technical direction at a strategic level
• Hands‑on leadership: Stay close to the code while leading initiatives
• Innovation-driven: Explore and implement modern technologies
• Growth opportunity: Mentor others while continuing to expand your own expertise
