•Optimize microservices and data pipelines to handle large-scale, rapidly growing datasets from drilling operations
•Manage core infrastructure (databases, storage, monitoring, logging) both on-premises at rig sites and in public cloud environments
•Drive edge-computing strategies for low-latency analytics, machine learning, and autonomous decision-making on the rigs themselves
•Collaborate with engineers and field teams to deliver end-to-end solutions from concept to field validation and hand-off

•Deep knowledge of cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP), edge computing strategies, and event-driven architectures
•Demonstrated ability to diagnose bottlenecks, optimize performance, and deliver reliable, high-traffic services in demanding or remote settings
•Solid security mindset, including expertise in authentication, encryption, and compliance (e.g., SOC2, ISO 27001)
