Join us in revolutionizing industrial automation through our Open Controls Architecture (OCA) initiative.
What is OCA?
OCA combines standardized computing hardware with AWS Cloud services, seamlessly integrating with industry-leading automation platforms. This innovative solution modernizes traditional PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) development without requiring a complete architectural overhaul.
The Challenge We're Solving:
Traditional industrial automation relies on proprietary PLC systems, each requiring manufacturer-specific programming environments. This fragmentation results in inconsistent testing methodologies across platforms, time-intensive on-site development, limited code reusability, and restricted collaboration capabilities.
Our Solution:
OCA brings modern software development practices to industrial automation by introducing automated testing pipelines, streamlined deployment processes, advanced monitoring systems, robust rollback capabilities, and version control integration.
Key Benefits:
We're transforming industrial automation by significantly reducing manual testing and deployment efforts. OCA enables enhanced remote collaboration capabilities while improving code quality through systematic testing. Teams experience greater software reliability, maintainability, and faster development cycles.
By bridging the gap between traditional PLC programming and modern software development practices, OCA is transforming how industrial automation solutions are developed, tested, and deployed.
Key job responsibilities
This initiative acts like a fast paced, highly collaborative start up-like environment inside Amazon. To be successful you need to be flexible and entrepreneurial. You are a true owner - you are hands on and you lead by example. You acquire expertise as needed, iterate and adapt your approach as you learn more. You are deeply interested in pragmatic problem solving as well as taking risks in pioneering brand new areas. You create extendable design and easy to maintain technical solution with the long term vision in mind. You will hold the high bar in software development in our org and work with other experienced developers with revolutionary design and experiments.
A day in the life
You will have the opportunity to design and implement systems that delight our Customers. You will also learn how things are built and deployed, brush up on operational excellence, and apply it on the job!
* Collaborate with other engineers towards broader organizational goals and projects
* Collaborate with product and program managers for feature definition and delivery
* Work with other Robotics teams to build innovative solutions that create value for our customers
* Stay aware of developments in the Robotics space and upstream projects
* Drive / contribute to technical designs
About the team
Your first question will be: what tech stack are you using?
For web development, back-end is written in either Python or Rust, and front-end in TypeScript/React.
For embedded development, we use Rust.
