Software Engineer (Salt Lake City, UT Hybrid)
About The Position
Blue Eye Monitoring, part of Motorola Solutions, is seeking a Senior Software Engineer to design, build, and scale its core platform across backend systems, web applications, and distributed edge infrastructure. In this hands-on leadership role, the engineer will own major technical initiatives end to end, mentor team members, and support engineering velocity across mission-critical workflows. Blue Eye uses proprietary Blackbox technology to make customers’ existing camera networks active security systems. AI software embedded in the Blackbox monitors properties for threats; when a threat is detected, an alarm is sent to a command center where Video Surveillance Technicians assess the situation and take appropriate action. The platform combines artificial and human intelligence and uses cameras already installed at customer sites. The role involves developing scalable backend services, customer- and operator-facing web applications, and integrations; building systems for remotely managing distributed edge appliances; and improving reliability through observability, telemetry, and CI/CD. The position is hybrid in Salt Lake City, with on-site work four days per week during the first three months for onboarding, transitioning to two days per week thereafter. Travel is under 10%.
