As a Solution Architect for Sorting, you will define and guide the end-to-end architecture of next-generation sorting platforms for a large logistics organization. The role sits at the crossroads of industrial automation, operational technology (OT), and enterprise IT, ensuring highly reliable, secure, and scalable sorting solutions that operate in real-time and support 24/7 continuity across sorting centers.
Design end-to-end architectures for sorting systems across automation layers, real-time control, SCADA, IT applications, and enterprise integrations
Ensure solutions meet operational requirements for throughput, latency, resilience, maintainability, and uptime
Define and enforce architectural standards for OT–IT integration, including data flows, protocols, security, and lifecycle management
Provide hands-on architectural guidance across PLC/ICS, SCADA, equipment controllers, APIs, data capture, monitoring, and dashboards
Review vendor and internal designs to ensure compliance with safety, cyber-security, and operational performance requirements
Guide decisions on real-time data acquisition, event processing, system decomposition, and equipment integration
Collaborate with operations, engineering, infrastructure, security teams, and automation vendors
Support commissioning, go-live, hyper-care, and operational readiness of sorting systems
Contribute to incident analysis, root cause investigations, and long-term platform improvements
Define runbooks, KPIs, alarms, dashboards, and operational procedures for OT environments
Track and promote innovation in automation, industrial IoT, predictive maintenance, and modular architectures
8–10+ years of experience in solution architecture, industrial automation, OT/SCADA, or real-time operational systems
Hands-on experience with sorting systems, conveyors, robotics, PLCs, SCADA, or MES platforms
Strong background in systems integration and operationally critical environments
Proven experience integrating OT platforms with enterprise IT systems, APIs, or event-driven architectures
Experience with OT security principles, ICS network segmentation, and industrial cyber-security controls
Familiarity with real-time data processing, telemetry, monitoring, and performance optimization
Ability to collaborate effectively with operations, maintenance, and external automation suppliers
Exposure to edge computing, modular automation, or containerized services in OT contexts
Knowledge of predictive maintenance, digital twins, or advanced analytics for industrial systems
