• Implement decentralized execution engines that run independently of the cloud 
• Develop efficient binary protocol decoders (TCP, Protobuf, custom formats) for telemetry and control 
• Build disk-buffered logging systems for structured event replay and fault recovery 
• Translate cloud-based charging plans into actionable minute-by-minute edge-level decisions 
• Simulate degraded conditions and build tools to test system behavior under failure 
• Benchmark and validate distributed runtimes for determinism, scalability, and predictability 

We offer:  

• Competitive salary with the regular review 
• Vacation (up to 20 working days) 
• Paid sick leaves (10 working days) 
• National Holidays as paid time off 
• Flexible working schedule, remote format
