Job description
Location: Shannon, Co. Clare, Ireland Reports To: CTO Job Type: Full-Time, Permanent, Onsite The Opportunity Ei Electronics is a top three global brand in smoke and carbon monoxide sensing with a growing base of connected products and environmental sensing technology. We are now asking ourselves what the next generation of life-safety technology will look like and investing deeply in frontier innovation. We want to explore that question by building, experimenting and turning new ideas into working technology. We are looking for an ambitious and curious Applications Engineer to join our new Global Innovation Centre in Shannon. This is not a conventional software development role focused on maintaining existing applications or delivering incremental changes. It is an opportunity to work at the very early stages of innovation — exploring emerging technologies, developing prototypes and creating new digital capabilities that could shape the future of technology within the home. You could be building a backend to collect data from a new sensor one week, developing a dashboard to turn that data into useful insights the next, and experimenting with AI, cloud technologies or a completely new user-facing application after that. Some ideas will develop into future Ei products and services. Others may prove that a particular technology or approach doesn't work. Both are part of innovation. We are looking for someone who enjoys building software, experimenting with technology and turning data and ideas into something people can actually use. The effective use of modern AI development tools will be a core part of this role, enabling ideas to be developed, tested and demonstrated much faster than through conventional development approaches. Key Responsibilities You will work within Ei's Innovation Centre on early-stage connected technologies and concepts, taking ideas from initial investigation through to functional prototypes and proof-of-concept systems. Your work will include: - Exploring emerging software, IoT and connected technologies that could create new opportunities in life safety, sensing and the connected home. - Developing backend services and systems to collect, process, store and analyse data from products, sensors and connected devices. - Designing APIs and interfaces between connected products, cloud services and user-facing applications. - Developing intuitive dashboards, web applications and mobile experiences that turn product and sensor data into useful information and insights. - Using modern AI development tools extensively to accelerate software development, coding, testing, debugging and rapid prototyping. - Experimenting with cloud platforms, databases, data analytics, AI and machine learning. - Building customer facing rapid proof-of-concept systems to determine whether new ideas are technically viable and valuable. - Working with electronics, embedded and RF engineers to connect physical prototypes with digital platforms and applications. - Developing new technical concepts and contributing to the creation of new intellectual property and patents. - Collaborating with universities, technology partners and researchers and helping successful concepts progress towards future product development.
