Senior Software Engineer (Python | Cloud | Kubernetes) Location: Remote-first (Northern Ireland-based team) Type: Full-time | Permanent Industry: IoT, Infrastructure, Cloud-Native Platforms The Opportunity Are you ready to join a company entering the most exciting growth phase in its history? This is not another FinTech or Telecoms job. This is a chance to build cutting-edge, production-grade software that directly powers global IoT systems for a business backed by an exceptional track record, a world-class client base, and a Belfast team thats quietly becoming one of the most respected engineering hubs in NI. Youll be working with elite engineers on projects that are career-defining, using Python, Kubernetes, and public cloud to architect solutions that shape the physical and digital world around us. Why This Role Stands Out True greenfield work not just maintenance, not just integrations. A Director of Engineering whos known for mentoring and championing talent. Exceptional staff retention engineers here stay because theyre challenged and valued. Global impact software you ship will be deployed across live, high-availability systems used around the world. What Youll Be Doing Building robust, scalable systems in Python that power mission-critical IoT solutions. Designing software that pushes performance, uptime, and efficiency to the limit. Deploying services on Kubernetes across public cloud platforms. Collaborating with a senior, tight-knit team that moves fast and builds smart. Contributing to architectural decisions and setting the technical standard for a new pod. Ideal Background 8 years of hands-on development experience. Proficient with Python in a commercial setting. Experience working with Kubernetes, containerisation, and cloud-native deployments. Familiarity with messaging/streaming platforms (Kafka, MQTT, etc.) is a plus. Strong grasp of the SDLC and DevOps-first thinking. Whats On Offer ?? Competitive salary equity ?? Remote-first setup (with the option of a local hub in Belfast) ?? Generous annual leave ?? Accelerated career growth in an elite engineering environment ? High-trust, low-ego culture where great ideas move fast Why Now? Ocho recently placed multiple Senior Engineers into this team feedback has been consistently excellent. With a new engineering pod launching in NI and rapid product expansion, this is a unique moment to get in early and make your mark.
