We are seeking a highly skilled and motivated Software Engineer for the following responsibilities:

• Take an active role in the development of the edge-server orchestration platform.
• Challenge the existing architectural patterns and propose, showcase and implement architectural alternatives to improve the computational flow.
• Extend the existing monitoring and benchmarks and profile the current code to identify and improve bottle necks.
• Collaborate with the IT and R&D teams of Fluves and Marlinks to translate existing and newly developed data pipelines into the edge orchestration.
• Document best practices and clarify trade-offs to shorten the time to deployment of new data pipelines.

• Holds a degree in computer science or computer engineering, or has equivalent experience.
• At least 5 years of experience.
• Professional Python developer, preferably also feels comfortable with scientific Python libraries for array computing such as Numpy and Xarray.
• Proven track record in parallel computing and multiprocessing.
• Experience with flow orchestration frameworks and setting up DAG pipelines, e.g. celery, airflow, spark, dagster or other framework. Understands the inner functioning and architectural patterns of these platforms.
• Understanding the limitations of computer hardware (CPU and GPU and disk storage patterns)
• Experience with message brokers, storage backends and task queues (e.g. RabbitMQ, Redis, Celery …).
• Worked with multi-dimensional arrays and aware of the differences between NetCDF and Zarr storage.
• Experience with machine learning and MLOps is a plus.
• Some notion of the frequency domain and Fourier transformation.
• Good communicator with a documentation reflex.
• Writes unit tests, knows git and familiar with CI/CD pipelines.
• Down to earth, hands-on problem solver that likes to take a deep dive into computational challenges.
• Fluency in English, both spoken and written. Proficiency in one additional language — Dutch, French, or German — is highly desirable, along with strong writing and presentation skills.
