About The Role

This is a hands-on engineering role focused on the connectivity and device platform that powers our digital screen network across Europe.

Our estate includes thousands of connected devices deployed in real-world environments, including digital displays, edge compute nodes, and telemetry systems. Ensuring these devices remain securely connected, observable, and remotely manageable is critical to how our platform operates.

You will work across IoT connectivity, edge networking, device lifecycle management, and cloud integration, helping ensure that our physical infrastructure operates reliably at scale.

Alongside day-to-day engineering and operations, you will play a key role in modernising how connected devices are deployed, monitored, and managed across the platform through automation and modern engineering practices.

What you’ll be doing

- Design and operate the secure connectivity layer linking thousands of digital screens across Europe via 4G/5G and APN management.

- Build and maintain high-scale device messaging systems using protocols like MQTT, HTTP, and AMQP.

- Streamline device provisioning and management through Python, APIs, and IaC.

- Enhance fleet monitoring to ensure rapid detection and resolution of connectivity issues.

- Partner with cross-functional teams to evolve a secure, reliable, and scalable edge infrastructure.

What you’ll bring to the team

- Expertise in managing large-scale connected device fleets, including lifecycle management (provisioning/OTA), firmware, and Linux-based edge systems.

- Knowledge of TCP/IP, VPNs, and wireless standards (BLE, LoRaWAN, NB-IoT, 4G/5G) including SIM/APN configuration.

- Proficient in IoT protocols (MQTT, HTTP, CoAP) and integrating device telemetry into Azure or similar cloud APIs.

- Hands-on experience with monitoring tools like Grafana, Zabbix, or Icinga to troubleshoot distributed infrastructure.

- Grasp of ISO 27001/OWASP IoT principles and experience automating workflows via scripting or IaC.
