I would then configure a limited, repeatable deployment, validate connectivity and data quality, document findings, and review measurable outcomes with the customer before planning production rollout. Describe how you would troubleshoot a customer issue where machine data is not reaching the edge platform. I would isolate the issue across the data path: source system or PLC, protocol configuration, network connectivity, edge service health, authentication, and destination configuration. I would review logs and metrics, test connectivity safely, identify the root cause, communicate status clearly, and document both the resolution and preventive steps. What factors would you consider when deploying containerized software in a manufacturing environment? I would assess hardware capacity, operating-system compatibility, network segmentation, security policies, offline or intermittent connectivity, update procedures, observability, and rollback requirements. In production environments, I would also ensure the design minimizes operational risk and aligns with plant change-control practices. How do you translate a customer's technical requirements into a configuration that delivers business value? I connect each technical requirement to a defined operational outcome, such as reducing downtime, improving visibility, or accelerating issue response. I validate the required data, configure the solution around measurable use cases, and review results with stakeholders so the implementation remains tied to business value rather than features alone. How would you provide useful product feedback after supporting multiple customer deployments? I would identify recurring friction points, capture the customer context and technical evidence, and distinguish defects from enhancement opportunities or documentation gaps. I would provide product and engineering teams with a clear problem statement, impact, reproduction details where applicable, and a recommended priority based on customer and business impact. ### Who is Litmus Litmus is building the data foundation that powers industrial AI. AI doesn’t work without real-world, contextualized data – Litmus makes that data usable. As AI adoption accelerates, most industrial environments still can’t access or use their operational data. We solve that gap. We’re a growth-stage software company helping manufacturers access, structure, and use real-time data from machines, systems, and sensors at the edge. Our platform sits at the intersection of edge computing, AI, and industrial operations, enabling some of the world’s largest companies to run operations in real time, reduce downtime, and optimize production. Backed by leading investors and trusted by global manufacturers and partners like Google, Microsoft, Dell, Oracle, and Mitsubishi, Litmus is powering the shift toward software-defined manufacturing. ### Why join Litmus ### Build the infrastructure that makes industrial AI possible AI is moving beyond the cloud and into the physical world. At Litmus, you’ll build the infrastructure that enables real-time data to power AI and machine learning systems in production environments. ### Work on problems where software meets the real world Most AI systems fail without access to real-world data. You’ll build the layer that makes them viable in production. We solve challenges at the intersection of distributed systems, real-time data, and industrial constraints — where reliability, scale, and performance are non-negotiable. ### Have real impact, fast You’ll work on systems used by real customers in production, with direct impact on product and company trajectory. As a scaling company, we move quickly. You’ll have ownership, visibility, and the ability to shape both product and company as we scale. ### Join a high-performance team We’re building a team that holds a high bar and pushes each other to improve. You’ll work alongside experienced operators, engineers, and leaders who have done this before and are building again at scale. We hire people who take ownership, move quickly, and care about outcomes. No passengers. ### Our culture At Litmus, the team is collaborative, curious, and low ego. People are scrappy, take ownership, and look for ways to make an impact. We value empathy just as much as execution, whether that’s in how we build, how we communicate, or how we support each other. We’re a growing company, so things move quickly and not everything is perfectly defined. If you enjoy figuring things out, working closely with others, and making steady progress, you’ll do well here. ### About the Role The Application Engineer is a key technical role within the Litmus Customer Success team and is responsible for ensuring successful configuration, deployment, and value realization of Litmus Edge and Litmus Edge Manager for customers across the APAC region.
