## About the Role

* Experience leading the design, automation, deployment, and support of large-scale infrastructure
 * Experience programming with at least one modern language such as Python, Ruby, Golang, Java, C++, C#, Rust
 * Experience with CI/CD pipelines build processes
 * Experience working in a manufacturing environment, * Experience with distributed systems at scale

## Description

Bridge the gap between IT and OT environments by integrating plant-floor equipment (PLCs, SCADA, robots, CNC machines, torque tools) with enterprise systems such as MES using OPC UA, MQTT, and REST APIs

Build and maintain real-time data pipelines that converge OT and IT layers, enabling end-to-end production visibility, traceability, and data-driven decision-making across the manufacturing stack

Develop custom manufacturing applications (dashboards, digital work instructions, production monitoring, and quality traceability) tailored to satellite manufacturing operations, serving as the connective tissue between shop-floor systems and enterprise platforms

Design, train, and deploy applied AI solutions for predictive maintenance, automated quality inspection, anomaly detection, process optimization, and intelligent chatbots leveraging data from both OT and IT systems to drive actionable insights for Production Operations.

Partner cross-functionally with controls engineers to ensure equipment-level connectivity and PLC/SCADA integration

Collaborate with manufacturing engineers to translate process requirements and domain expertise into scalable digital solutions

Work alongside network development engineers to architect reliable, secure industrial network infrastructure that supports OT/IT convergence
