Job Summary:
Connected Product – IoT Engineer, is an exciting new position as part of a developing IoT & Data Management team in support of the Spirax Group Digital Strategy.

The IoT Engineer provides technical leadership with responsibility to design, develop & deliver new connected products throughout the WMFTS portfolio. Working as part of the IoT & Data management team & as a key member of New Product Innovation (NPI) development teams, the IoT Engineer holds responsibility for the ‘connected product’, IoT, aspect of developments. Both leading and supporting teams on integration of IoT/connectivity into product platforms and as retrofit solutions.

As part of the IoT & Data Management team, you will be responsible for the design and implementation of data collection, both hardware and software, at the sensor level and ingestion into an azure data pipeline. To enable this, you’ll be able to demonstrate your ability to transition from design to implementation with a practical ability to assemble and configure edge devices, such as single board computers and sensor aggregation devices, during the development phases. In close collaboration with our wider engineering community you’ll also need the ability to specify and document these designs and processes into a production environment. To support these activities the Cardrew Innovation Centre is equipped with collaboration spaces, development and test facilities.

To work within the Azure data pipeline, experience in the azure data platform, or similar, is desirable. The edge data collection infrastructure and data manipulation currently heavily uses Python, so a working knowledge of this is also desirable.

The role offers the opportunity to travel as projects require, to other Spirax Group locations, Customers and development partners, so the successful candidate must have a full driving license and current passport to be able to travel internationally.
