## About the role

In this role, you will design real-time telemetry pipelines, integrate with datacenter power and compute systems, and implement control and optimization logic that dynamically adjusts workloads based on grid and infrastructure conditions. This role bridges IT and OT environments - turning raw operational data into safe, reliable, production-grade control systems.

- Hands-on experience building telemetry ingest pipelines or distributed systems that handle high-volume, time-series data
- Familiarity with at least one async messaging system: Kafka, RabbitMQ or equivalent
- Exposure to IT or OT systems (SCADA, EMS, BMS, DCIM) and understanding of how data flows between them
- Direct experience with industrial telemetry protocols: Modbus TCP/RTU, DNP3, OPC-UA, BACnet, or SNMP
- Familiarity with time-series databases (InfluxDB, TimescaleDB, Prometheus) or industrial historian platforms (AVEVA PI / OSIsoft, Ignition)
