Job Description

Your role

Your role will be to define the architecture of the “EdgeOS Server” platform and technically lead its development.

The “EdgeOS Server” platform is based on our Linux/Yocto “EdgeOS MPU” platform and completes it by adding virtualization functions allowing the deployment and monitoring of real-time or maximum-effort tasks. Virtualization refers to both virtual machines and containers running in these virtual machines.

You will work in conjunction with the Intelligent Edge Product Owners and architects.

Your main missions

• Provide architectural guidelines, identify technical solutions and write technical requirements, meeting the functional requirements of the EdgeOS Server platform
• Prototype technical solutions that need to be de-risked
• Work closely with experts from the Intelligent Edge anticipation team to benefit from the explorations carried out as part of the "Software Defined Edge Control (SDEC)" program
• Interact with various technical project teams to define together the end-to-end architecture and select accordingly the appropriate technologies to integrate into the platform
• Collaborate with the POs and Architects of the “Edge System Management” (platform allowing remote deployment and management) and “EdgeOS MPU” (mainly the runtime environment layer) to ensure the proper deployment of the virtualization technology within the platform
• Ensure full consistency and complementarity with what is already in place in “EdgeOS MPU”, define how to integrate virtualization technologies, enable the deployment of virtual machines and containers and their monitoring, both locally and remotely from a local or remote “Edge System Management”
• Present architectural developments to the team and monitor the proper deployment of architectural choices in the “EdgeOS Server” platform.
  
  

Expected technical knowledge

• Strong expertise in virtualization and network technologies - with a focus on the Linux runtime environment - in the context of mixed critical systems combining real-time/secure and maximum-effort applications
• Backend engineer, capable of doing distributed architectures
• Programming, testing, integrating, automating these tasks
• Programming languages: C/C++
• Code management under Git, tests, automated builds
• Communication mechanisms and intra and interprocess data exchanges
• Communication under constraints in embedded
• Good level of spoken and written English (B2/C1).
  
  

Technical knowledge appreciated

• Programming languages: Rust, Python
• Container technologies - docker
• REST API technology - OpenAPI
• Implementation of a message bus (pub/sub and client/server), taking into account communication performance
• Data modeling.
  
  

Required Qualities

• Curious and proactive, you are not afraid to try, even if it means failing and documenting why the choice is not the right one
• Knowing how to work in a team, communicate on a daily basis
• Able to present documented choices.
  
  

Qualities appreciated

• Able to manage sometimes contradictory requests from customers
• Able to make a technical presentation.
