Job Title: Controls Software Engineer
Department: ATC
About the Role
We are looking for a Controls Software Engineer – Edge Platforms & Agentic AI to help build the next generation of software foundations for industrial control systems and intelligent engineering workflows.
This role is intended for a software engineer who can operate across Linux-based edge platforms, distributed device communication, automation tooling, and AI-enabled engineering systems . The focus is not limited to traditional firmware development. Instead, the role combines industrial software engineering with the design of practical agentic AI solutions that support diagnostics, integration, knowledge access, technical workflows, and internal engineering productivity.
You will contribute to software platforms used in critical thermal and infrastructure environments, where reliability, observability, maintainability, and technical rigor matter. You will also help shape AI-assisted systems that interact with real tools, technical documentation, structured data, and operational workflows.
Key Responsibilities
- Design and implement software components and services in Python and C/C++ for Linux-based edge and control platforms
- Develop modular software for distributed embedded and edge systems, including data acquisition, diagnostics, orchestration, and device interaction
- Build and maintain communication and integration layers using protocols such as Modbus RTU/TCP, MQTT, CANbus/CANopen, and similar industrial or field protocols
- Create internal tooling and engineering utilities for configuration, deployment, troubleshooting, validation, and system analysis
- Design and implement AI-assisted and agent-based workflows to improve engineering productivity, diagnostics, knowledge retrieval, and service operations
- Develop software systems that combine LLMs, external tools, APIs, structured data, technical documentation, and workflow logic in a controlled and reliable way
- Translate technica
