As we expand into smart lighting (Oasis) and living tech (Easyplant), we need to process massive streams of IoT signals and power real-time AI. You won't just maintain a warehouse; you will architect the platform that connects our physical products to the digital world.</span></p> <h2><span style="font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif;"><strong>What you’ll do</strong></span></h2> <ul> <li style="font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif;"><strong>Build the "Brain"</strong>: Architect the next-gen data platform capable of handling high-volume IoT streams and integrating AI capabilities into our daily operations.</span></li> <li style="font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif;"><strong>Code the Core:</strong> This is a hands-on role. You won’t just manage; you’ll be deep in Python, DBT, and Airflow, building and optimizing the pipelines yourself.</span></li> <li style="font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif;"><strong>Scale for Complexity: </strong>We are growing from one product to a multi-brand ecosystem.

You prefer writing a script to writing a Jira ticket.</span></li> <li style="font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif;"><strong>Modern Stack Native: </strong>You live in the cloud and speak fluent Python. You know DBT and Airflow inside out.</span></li> <li style="font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif;"><strong>IoT Ready:</strong> You are excited by the challenge of moving beyond standard transactional data into the messy, high-volume world of hardware and sensors.</span></li> <li style="font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif;"><strong>Impact-Obsessed:</strong> You don't build technology for its own sake.
