Lead hands-on architecture and development for a cloud-based IoT asset-tracking platform. Design scalable distributed systems, APIs, data models, and platform components; resolve complex performance and reliability challenges; and champion testing, CI/CD, observability, and security practices. Lead an agile engineering team, manage delivery, mentor and hire engineers, collaborate with Product and Operations, and drive adoption of AI development tools and AI/ML capabilities.
This is a remote position.
Embrace Industrial Group supports some of the world’s largest and most complex manufacturers—serving 8 of the Top 10 global Chemical companies, 3 of the Top 10 Automotive companies, and 3 of the Top 5 Oil & Gas companies, along with industry leaders in Heavy Machinery and Food Manufacturing.
Radiant RFID is a next-generation IoT platform under the Embrace umbrella, focused on enterprise-grade asset tracking. Our technology empowers organizations to manage and monitor critical and mobile assets in real time—boosting visibility, accountability, and operational efficiency, all while requiring minimal IT infrastructure.
We are seeking a Lead Engineer/ Architect (.NET) who is equally at home writing production code and leading a team. This is a hands-on role: you will spend a significant portion of your time doing software architecture and development, while also owning the team’s engineering process, mentoring engineers, and championing AI adoption. You will bridge technical execution and business strategy, helping our cloud-based IoT asset tracking platform scale to meet enterprise customer demand.
Hands-On Development & Architecture (core focus)
- Design and implement critical features and platform components – this is an active coding role.
- Own technical architecture decisions: system design, service boundaries, data modelling, and API contracts.
- Lead code and design reviews, setting the technical bar and coaching engineers through them.
- Resolve complex engineering challenges, performance bottlenecks, and cross-cutting concerns.
- Drive adoption of engineering best practices: TDD, CI/CD, observability, and security-by-design.
- Lead a small agile team – run sprints, set goals, unblock engineers, and manage delivery commitments.
- Mentor and develop engineers through regular 1:1s, feedback, and pair programming.
- Collaborate with Product and Operations to refine roadmaps and translate requirements into technical plans.
- Hire and onboard engineering talent in partnership with leadership.
- Lead the team’s adoption of AI development tools (e.g. GitHub Copilot, AI-assisted testing) and build internal best practices.
- Identify opportunities to embed AI/ML capabilities into the Radiant platform to enhance customer value.
- Evaluate emerging AI tools and partner with leadership to define an AI strategy roadmap for engineering.
