Responsibilities
Sensor setup and system design
- Design, implement and maintain IoT sensor networks and data acquisition systems for geotechnical applications (e.g., piezometers, inclinometers, strain gauges, total stations, etc.)
- Identify and specify field data acquisition hardware such as nodes, loggers and gateways & select, assess, configure, and maintain sensors and communication devices for accurate data acquisition
Data Acquisition, Transformation, and Management
- Build and manage data pipelines from edge devices to cloud on on-premise-hosted databases & implement transformation logic for raw sensor data based on project-specific rules
- Ensure data quarantine and release workflows, and alert rules and escalations are correctly programmed and integrated & collaborate with field teams to set up data monitoring systems for projects
- Ensure secure data transmission and storage using best practices & monitor system health and uptime of IoT infrastructure
Collaboration & Reporting
- Work with IT Engineers and other Instrumentation Engineers and Surveyors to develop dashboards and ensure seamless data flow & support reporting automation and data visualization efforts
- Provide technical documentation and training for field teams and stakeholders
Skills / Qualifications
- Diploma or Degree in Electronics, Mechatronics, Computer Engineering, Civil Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or related field
- Certifications in IoT, data engineering, cloud platforms (Azure, AWS), or communications protocols are a plus
- Skills & Experience
- Experience with IoT protocols (MQTT, FTP), sensor integration, and embedded systems
- Familiarity with SQL databases, data transformation logic, and cloud services
- Knowledge of geotechnical instrumentation is highly desirable
- Strong problem-solving and debugging skills in field deployments and data flow
