Overview

We are seeking a highly experienced IoT Architect to conduct a deep architectural audit of our proprietary IoT edge device and the associated cloud infrastructure it directly interacts with. The scope of this engagement centers on our facial recognition scanners, which are deployed across venue entry points, grab-and-go concession systems, and as badge scanners at the Intuit Dome.

Expected outcomes focus on optimizing performance and stabilizing the current architecture, with attention to latency reduction and reliable deployment processes.

Responsibilities

  • Architectural Audit : Conduct a deep dive into the design, implementation, and performance of our IoT edge device and connected cloud services.
  • Edge Device Review : Assess efficiency of device-side architecture, including compute, memory, and pipeline performance on Jetson-class hardware.
  • Cloud Infrastructure Review : Evaluate backend services, APIs, and IoT communication patterns (MQTT, pub / sub, etc.) for scalability, security, and efficiency.
  • Pipeline Optimization : Review and suggest improvements in camera / video pipelines (gstreamer, OpenCV) and NFC implementations (e.g., NXP KL81, EMV, Apple Pay, Google Pay).
  • Vendor Oversight : Audit work produced by our development vendor, provide objective recommendations and highlight risks, inefficiencies, or gaps.
  • Technology Guidance : Deliver actionable recommendations for improving device software, services architecture, and integration patterns.
  • Deployment Review : Evaluate deployment and configuration processes to identify misconfigurations, missing packages, or process breakdowns that may affect performance.
  • Stakeholder Communication : Present findings and recommendations to leadership in clear, concise, and actionable formats.

Required Qualifications

  • IoT Systems Expertise : Proven track record in architecting complex IoT ecosystems (edge + cloud integration).
  • Hardware Experience : Hands-on development with Linux-based IoT devices, particularly the NVIDIA Jetson line.
  • Pipelines & Vision : Deep expertise with camera / video pipelines (gstreamer, OpenCV).
  • NFC & Payments : Strong experience with NFC technologies and protocols, particularly NXP KL81 and payments (EMV, Apple Pay, Google Pay).
  • IoT Protocols : Extensive background in MQTT and other IoT communication frameworks.
  • Programming Languages : Proficiency in Rust, Golang, Node.js, Angular, and other modern development stacks relevant to IoT and cloud systems.
  • Audit / Assessment Skills : Demonstrated ability to review, critique, and improve vendor-delivered architectures and implementations.

    • Preferred Experience

  • Experience leading architecture reviews or technology due diligence for startups or enterprise IoT initiatives.
  • Familiarity with secure, high-performance edge-to-cloud communication at scale.
  • Strong understanding of containerization, orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes), and CI / CD pipelines for IoT systems.
  • Ability to quickly produce architectural documentation and recommendations.
