Technical Operations Engineer, CHAOS Industries

• This role is ideal for someone who thrives in dynamic, hands-on settings — comfortable with Linux terminals, network traces, and hardware wiring as much as Python scripts and dashboards
• Strong technical foundation with a degree in Engineering, Computer Science, Physics, or related field — or equivalent hands-on experience
• Deep familiarity with Linux environments; comfortable with SSH, networking tools, and system-level debugging
• Strong problem-solving instincts — able to work independently and under pressure in the field
• Understanding of networking protocols, hardware interfaces, and distributed system concepts
• Experience integrating or maintaining hardware or sensor systems
• Proficiency in at least one scripting or programming language (Python, Bash, or similar)
• Willingness and enthusiasm for travel and on-site technical work

Desirable

• Technical Operations Engineers sit at the intersection of technology and real-world mission environments. You’ll ensure CHAOS systems operate flawlessly in the field — integrating hardware and software, diagnosing complex system issues, and delivering rapid fixes and improvements
• You’ll be embedded with customers, integrating CHAOS systems into existing infrastructure, and ensuring reliability under real-world conditions
• Integrate CHAOS software, sensors, and RF devices with customer systems — both physically (networking, power, and hardware bring-up) and via software interfaces (data pipelines, APIs)
• Debug complex edge issues spanning hardware, software, and networking layers
• Develop scripts, diagnostics, and automation tools to improve reliability and observability
• Capture operational feedback and collaborate with internal engineering teams to drive product improvements
• Document system configurations, troubleshooting steps, and lessons learned for both internal and customer audiences
• Travel (typically up to 50%) to customer and test sites for deployments, troubleshooting, and mission support
