• Plan and coordinate the deployment of new code to remote customers’ sites, ensuring minimal disruption to operations.
• Monitor deployment processes to ensure successful implementation and address any issues.
• Provide oversight and support during and after deployment to ensure smooth transitions.

You’d be a good fit if you have:

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, or a related field.
• 3+ years of experience in deployment, field engineering, or a related role, preferably with IoT devices.
• Experience with deployment processes and tools, particularly for remote systems.
