Own and evolve the backend systems and infrastructure that power Induct's cloud-connected access control platform.
About Induct
Having safe access to your home or office shouldn't be a problem, yet people get locked out, keycards get lost, packages get stolen, codes are shared, visitors are stuck waiting outside, and when was the last time the locks were changed?
Induct builds hardware and software for Access Control which retrofits onto existing security infrastructure, allowing buildings to be brought online in under a day for a fraction of the cost, while simultaneously upgrading the software into the 21st century.
It was started by engineers & nerds who simply wanted to answer the question, why do I have to wait weeks for a new keycard?
This just led us to even more questions and since then, we've built six different hardware revisions, two mobile apps, three web apps, and raised capital from investors across Ireland, the US and Europe. And during that time we've only managed to lock ourselves out once.
We're based in Ireland but growing fast. If you want to see what it's like to grow with a small & fast working team, have high agency over your work, tackle fun problems, and experience the joy of seeing your work, work, in the real world, then we want to talk to you.
About the Role
We're looking for a backend/systems engineer who enjoys owning difficult real-world production systems. Induct builds low-cost cloud connected access control systems for physical buildings. We build linux-based controllers deployed in real buildings, with real, unreliable network conditions, designed to retrofit existing legacy systems, alongside a cloud platform enabling real-time networking, device coordination, authentication, and fleet management.
What You'll Do
Distributed coordination and reliability
Device identity, authentication and security
Event-driven backend infrastructure
Observability, debugging and production tooling
Backend APIs and platform systems
Device update orchestration and rollout systems
Guide the architecture of the platform as it grows
We're Hoping You...
Have strong engineering judgement
Take ownership and work with autonomy
Have a genuine interest in systems and infrastructure
Nice to Have
TypeScript (Node.js / NestJS)
Rust
Kubernetes and cloud infrastructure
Networking and reliability engineering
Linux systems (server or embedded)
Why Join Induct
High degree of ownership and responsibility in a lightweight, fast-moving team
Significant influence on architecture, infrastructure, and overall technical direction
Work on difficult real-world production systems with tangible impact
