About the role
- A homeowner finds us and decides to trust a new kind of power company.
- The city approves it, the utility connects it, and we dispatch it, telling it when to charge and when to send power back based on local grid conditions and the member's usage.
- Our software has to work inside every one of those steps.
Responsibilities
- Learn how the work really gets done, and where it breaks, by working alongside the team or partner
- Help decide which problems matter most, what to build, and what to fix with process instead of code
- Build end-to-end software: integrations, internal tools, workflows, data pipelines, and partner-facing products
- Work with utility partners on grid constraints and data, and build tools that turn that data into decisions about where to deploy batteries and how to command them
- Launch new states by standing up the partner integrations, workflows, and data each market needs, and make the next launch faster
- 2+ years building production software in product or full-stack engineering roles
- Intensity and urgency, and a high bar for your own work
