Description For Senior Software Engineer: Forward Deployed

Gridware exists to enhance and protect the mother of all networks: the electrical grid. The grid touches everything and the consequences can be dire when it fails: wildfires burn, land is destroyed, property is damaged, and lives are lost.

Our team created an advanced sensing system to continuously analyze critical grid behavior. Utilizing high-precision sensor arrays and intelligence, our system identifies and preemptively mitigates faults. The technology has been proven with utilities to bolster safety, enhance reliability, and reduce outages. The demand for power will only increase. We protect the grid of today while we build the grid of tomorrow.

As a Senior Software Engineer in our Forward Deployed team, you will drive development of customer-facing features, sitting at the intersection of Customer Success and Software to translate customer requests into robust, scalable engineering solutions. This is a critical role where your decisions will lay the foundations of our integrations with utility systems and directly impact the success of our deployments at scale.

We're looking for someone with 5+ years of professional software engineering experience in relevant roles at tech and product-driven companies. The ideal candidate should be able to thrive in a low structure, high-autonomy environment with competing priorities and have experience building something from the ground up with broad ownership.

Technical requirements include experience with Python, GraphQL, React, Typescript, PostgreSQL, Terraform, Linux systems, and containerization technologies. Additionally, familiarity with observability tooling such as OpenTelemetry, Grafana, Prometheus, and experience building customer-facing APIs and energy-related software products is valuable.

We offer comprehensive benefits including health, dental & vision coverage, paid parental leave, alternating days off, two weeks paid break annually, commuter allowance, and company-paid training. Join us in our mission to protect and enhance the electrical grid for a more reliable and sustainable future.
