We are looking for Senior Python Engineer to join our team.
Our client - the fortune 500 company and a bigger car safety systems manufacturer is planning to develop a Global AI Orchestrator — an enterprise AI-driven Quality Assurance platform operating across cloud, on-prem, and edge environments. The solution integrates Azure services (Azure Entra ID, Azure ML Studio, Azure IoT Hub) with existing customer systems and edge devices to deliver secure, scalable command-and-control capabilities.
The platform manages large fleets of Windows and Linux edge devices — enabling provisioning, software deployment, updates, decommissioning, and inventory exposure via APIs. It supports OCI-compliant container orchestration on the edge, enforces secure communications, and is designed to scale across multiple customer edge use-cases.

- Develop scalable REST/gRPC APIs for device lifecycle management (provisioning, deployment, updates, inventory)
- Build orchestration services managing OCI container workloads on edge devices
- Integrate AI/ML pipelines and model operations from Azure ML Studio
- Implement secure device communication (TLS, certificate management, encrypted channels)
- Ensure high availability, scalability, and performance of orchestration services
- Collaborate with DevOps on CI/CD, containerization, and release management
- Support cross-platform device management (Windows & Linux)
- Contribute to system architecture, technical design, and code quality standards
Requirements:
- 5+ years of professional Python engineering experience
- Strong expertise in microservices architecture and distributed systems
- Proven experience designing production-grade APIs
- Hands-on experience with Docker / OCI containers
- Experience working with IoT or edge device ecosystems
- Solid understanding of secure communication protocols (TLS, PKI, cert rotation)
- Experience integrating with cloud platforms (Azure)
- Knowledge of container orchestration frameworks (Kubernetes, K3s, Edge K8s)
- Exposure to MLOps / AI model lifecycle management
- Strong database experience (SQL/NoSQL)
- Familiarity with event-driven architectures and message brokers
- Experience operating in Linux environments
Nice to have:
- Experience with Azure IoT Hub, Azure ML Studio, Azure Entra ID
- Experience with device fleet provisioning at scale
- Automotive, Manufacturing, or Industrial QA domain experience
- Familiarity with Zero-Trust or outbound-only edge security models
- Contributions to platform observability (logging, telemetry, tracing)
We offer*:
- Flexible working format - remote, office-based or flexible
- A competitive salary and good compensation package
- Personalized career growth
- Professional development tools (mentorship program, tech talks and trainings, centers of excellence, and more)
- Active tech communities with regular knowledge sharing
