About us: Working at Target means helping all families discover the joy of everyday life. We bring that vision to life through our values and culture. . The mission of the IoT Platform Team is to enable Target teams to deploy and manage IoT devices at scale in Target facilities to provide guest and team member services effectively and efficiently by abstracting device management and network complexities. Critical guest services such as refrigerator monitoring, guest request button, team member safety and productivity use cases. The platform has about 50K devices connected and processes 100s of millions of messages per day from across 2K locations. As a lead engineer, you serve as the technical anchor for the engineering team that supports a platform. You create, own, and are responsible for the platform architecture that best serves the functional and non-functional needs. You identify and drive architectural changes to accelerate feature development and improve the quality of service. You have deep and broad engineering skills and are capable of standing up an architecture in its whole on your own, but you choose to influence a wider team by acting as a “force multiplier”. Target values engineers that care about: A diverse, inclusive, and collaborative culture Robust architectures with mature CI/CD pipelines Code as craft with a desire to solve complex engineering problems with simplicity Operational excellence with an approach to engineering that makes our guests and team members their top priority. Triaging large scale issues with a bias to prevent them from happening in the first place Canary and A/B testing to push code multiple times a day during business hours Learning and experimenting with technologies High observability with robust logs, metrics and tracing Leveraging edge computing and elastic infrastructure As an Engineer on the IoT platform team: Are empowered to make technological choices and pick the best tools for the job. Are building self-service platform constructs to allow other teams at Target to accomplish their business goals. Have a goal of Full CD deployments with automated tests, monitoring, and rollback. Think outside the box to solve problems with high cardinality that will break traditional tools meant for applications such as monitoring tools. Our engineering teams are empowered to select the appropriate technology for the problem they are trying to solve. Common technologies include: Micronaut, Kotlin, Java, Python, Golang, Kafka, relational and NoSQL databases (Postgres, MariaDB, Mongo, Redis, etc.), Orchestration workflow engines like Temporal, Camunda.
