Platform Architect (IoT)

Data Science UA is a service company with deep expertise in AI and Data Science. Our story started in 2016 with the first Data Science UA Conference in Kyiv, and since then, we've built one of the largest AI communities in Europe.

About the Client:
We’re looking for a Platform Architect (IoT) to join our client’s team at a product-focused miltech company.

You will own the architecture of the platform that connects, manages and secures a rapidly growing device fleet. Today the infrastructure is run by one strong DevOps engineer; you will join as the senior technical voice who designs how the platform scales and brings applied IoT experience to the team.

Responsibilities:
- Design and evolve the platform architecture for a growing fleet of IoT devices and new product lines
- Define how devices are managed, supported and secured at scale
- Organise reliable data transfer from devices to the platform
- Set up access models for internal service teams
- Build and maintain Kubernetes-based infrastructure on AWS with GitOps delivery
- Own observability, CI/CD and infrastructure-as-code standards
- Embed security practices and SecOps tooling into the platform
- Work alongside the existing DevOps engineer and share ownership of the infrastructure

Requirements:
- Proven experience scaling high-load systems (mandatory)
- Hands-on experience with IoT platforms: device fleets, device-to-cloud data flows
- Kubernetes, ArgoCD
- AWS, Terraform
- Prometheus / Grafana monitoring stack
- CI/CD (GitLab is a plus; comparable tools are fine)
- Bash scripting
- SecOps tools and security-first thinking
- English sufficient for demos and communication with partners and customers

Nice to have:
- Exposure to radio or embedded devices
- Experience in defense tech or other hardware-driven products
