• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or related field required; Master’s degree preferred.
• Minimum of 8 years of software engineering experience, including experience leading a software engineering team.
• Demonstrated experience leading enterprise-scale distributed systems in robotics, automation, logistics, or similarly complex domains.
• Deep understanding of distributed systems architecture, microservices, concurrency, fault tolerance, and high-availability systems.
• Experience owning production services, including on-call participation and incident management.
• Ability to make sound technical trade-offs in complex, operationally constrained environments.
• Clear, pragmatic communicator who works well across disciplines.

• Experience supporting software deployed in live operational settings such as warehouses, manufacturing, or industrial environments.
• Hands‑on experience with C# / .NET in production systems.
• Experience designing and implementing asynchronous, event-driven architectures.
• Familiarity with messaging, caching, or streaming technologies such as RabbitMQ, Redis, or similar platforms.
