  • Collaborate closely with the software technical manger to design systems, develop and refine technical standards, including coding guidelines ensuring they align with the overall architectural vision and strategic goals.
  • Ensure that the team consistently follows the established technical standards, offering mentorship and support to less experienced engineers.
  • Conduct thorough code and configuration reviews, ensuring that all implementations meet the required quality standards and follow best practices.
  • Identify potential issues early in the development cycle and work with the team to resolve them efficiently.
  • Implement and maintain security measures for Linux systems, including patch management, vulnerability assessments, and secure configuration practices.
  • Ensure compliance with industry standards and regulatory requirements, particularly in the context of edge computing.
  • Develop and maintain comprehensive documentation for all aspects of Linux systems design, including architecture diagrams, system configurations, operational procedures, and troubleshooting guides.
