\n

We are looking for an experienced RabbitMQ specialist to support a distributed factory‐floor data system built on Windows PCs with local RabbitMQ instances.

\n

About the Environment

\n

Our setup consists of multiple Windows‐based machines operating in a low‐connectivity factory environment (little to no internet access). Each machine hosts its own RabbitMQ instance and performs a specific role:

\n

\n
• \n Node PCs:\n
  \n
  • \n Monitor individual pieces of factory equipment

  \n

  • \n Store equipment data locally in RabbitMQ

  \n

  • \n Write only to their own instance, but read from others over the local network

\n \n

• \n Central Controller:\n
  \n
  • \n Reads data from all node RabbitMQ instances

  \n

  • \n Performs processing and aggregation

  \n

  • \n Writes processed data into its own RabbitMQ instance for downstream steps

\n \n\n

Data flows bi‐directionally between nodes and the controller. All applications are built in .NET (C# and VB) and run on Windows with the latest RabbitMQ versions installed.

\n

\n

• \n Strong understanding of Windows‐based deployments and local‐network messaging

\n

• \n Solid experience with .NET (C# and/or VB) RabbitMQ client libraries

\n

• \n Familiarity with industrial or offline/air‐gapped environments is a plus

\n
