–       Remote monitoring and maintenance of all deployed sensors


–       Liaising with clients to troubleshoot issues and provide guidance


–       Debugging sensor, OPC connectivity and data integrity problems


–       Troubleshooting instrumentation hardware, machine vision systems, sensor connectivity and performance


–       Developing automated troubleshooting tools and SOPs for recurring issues


•     Provide remote technical support across software and infrastructure environments:


–       Azure infrastructure, Azure IoT Hub, Azure IoT Edge and Azure Arc


–       Containerised applications (Docker), deployments, logs and service availability


–       Linux-based systems, services, configurations and remote access


–       OPC UA/DA connectivity, PLC integration and industrial data communication


–       Database, data collection, data integrity and synchronisation issues


–       Network connectivity, infrastructure and communication issues


•     Assist with software installation, configuration, deployment, upgrades and ongoing maintenance


•     Liaise with internal and client IT teams on infrastructure architecture, network connectivity and requirements before site installations


•     Provide continuous remote technical support through a structured shift-based arrangement (including evening shifts)


•     Assist with commissioning work (remote software installation and sensor configuration) when support demand allows




RequirementsWhat You Bring
Minimum requirements


•     Bachelor’s degree or diploma in Electrical or Electronic Engineering (or related qualification)


•     Willing to work shifts, including evening shifts


Desired experience
