We are hiring an Engineering Lead to build the core of the Avathon platform. You will lead the team responsible for the layers every application runs on: data ingestion and connectors for IT and OT systems, the landing zone and data lake, the ontology and Computational Knowledge Graph, and the services that let models and AI agents work on that data. The platform has to run as multi-tenant SaaS, in customer clouds and on air-gapped edge sites, and it has to make new customer deployments faster, not slower. This is a hands-on lead role in Product Engineering. You will write code, own the architecture, and lead a team of engineers.
