Full Stack Iot Senior Software Engineer

Masen, a Koch owned and operated environmental IoT services startup, is seeking a Full-Stack Senior Software Engineer to lead the implementation of our IoT cloud platform and edge gateway solutions. As an early team member, you will have the opportunity to influence & implement key decisions for all aspects of software development. Masen is looking for a passionate individual excited about new IoT technologies and willing to take on a variety of software development challenges as we grow. The Software Engineer will report to the technology director and work on the product technology team to support and develop software solutions to meet the use case requirements identified by the operations team. This role will focus on leveraging SaaS IoT platforms to quickly deliver solutions in a variety of areas.

We are flexible on location for this role, but our preference is Denver, Colorado.

Our Team

Masen helps industrial operators implement and manage automated environmental data collection infrastructure. Masen curates & installs the IoT devices, connects them to the cloud through various communication protocols, visualizes the data to generate insights, and provides ongoing maintenance and support of the field hardware. This enables our customers to create competitive advantage and maximize operational efficiency through data driven decisions. As a new, fast growing, and rapidly evolving company, you will have the unique opportunity to help shape and define Masen from the ground up. Unlike most startups, Masen has access to some of the best customer insights being embedded in Koch Industries, one of the most stable and respected privately owned companies in the world.

What You Will Do

• Product Approach: As a startup, Masen is a small team, and this Full-Stack Software Engineering position will be responsible for all aspects of software development both at the edge and in the cloud. Masen intends to utilize SaaS IoT Cloud Platforms, such as Losant, to quickly get to market and validate the business model with customers. Ownership, implementation, and customization of the cloud & edge software is the primary role of the Software Engineer.
• Software Development: Customization of the cloud platform will help to deliver Masen's intended user experience. Backend development may include data connectivity using API integrations to ingest/output data and data management (storage, cleaning, transforming, and enhancing), security, and user account management. Front-end work may include data visualization, notifications, device monitoring, and documentation.
• Areas of development at the edge would include configuring gateways to connect sensor data to the cloud (currently edge gateways run Linux OS and Node-Red) and sensor to gateway communications (MQTT & Modbus protocols are common). Developing software solutions at the edge that allow for easy deployment by field teams, OTA updates, and optimized data flow is a critical piece of data connectivity.
