Job Description

• Support on-site and remote deployment of our solutions across sensors, edge devices, and software platforms, including configuration, calibration, testing, and validation. • Act as the technical point of contact during pilots, PoCs, and live implementations, owning technical execution end-to-end. • Partner with the Project team to plan and run deployments: align scope, milestones, site readiness, risks, and action items, and provide clear status updates. • Work closely with customers to understand technical requirements and site constraints, and translate them into deployment and integration steps. • Troubleshoot hardware, software, and network issues in the field, lead root cause analysis, and drive resolution with Engineering and Product. • Collaborate with Engineering, Product, and Project teams to share field learnings, collect requirements, and highlight gaps for improvement. • Create and maintain technical documentation, installation guides, and field reports to support repeatable deployments. • Train customer teams and internal stakeholders when required. • Provide input to pre-sales and post-sales when needed (demos, technical scoping, and RFP/RFI technical support).

Job Requirements

  • Must have experience in Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) (traffic management, smart mobility, road safety, or related deployments).
  • 7+ years of experience in a Field Application Engineer, Systems Engineer, Solutions Engineer, or similar customer-facing technical role.
  • Hands-on experience with field deployments: installing, configuring, and supporting hardware + software in real environments.
  • Strong troubleshooting skills across hardware, software, and networking (IP networks, switches/routers, VPNs, basic firewall concepts).
  • Comfortable working with edge devices and Linux-based systems, including reading logs and diagnosing issues.
  • Ability to work directly with customers, understand site constraints, and translate needs into clear technical actions.
  • Strong documentation habits (installation guides, field reports, runbooks).
  • Willingness to travel and work on-site as needed ~ 50%
