Role Summary 

As a Staff Full Stack Software Engineer, you will design, build, and own end-to-end software systems that interface directly with energy hardware, edge compute platforms, and cloud services. You will work across the stack—from low-level systems programming on Linux-based devices to high-performance backend services and user-facing applications. This role requires strong systems thinking, excellent coding skills in modern systems languages, and a deep appreciation for reliability, safety, and performance in energy and industrial environments. 

You will collaborate closely with power firmware, infrastructure, and data teams to deliver robust, production-grade software that operates in real-world energy systems. 

Responsibilities:

• Architect, develop, and maintain full-stack software systems supporting energy and grid-connected products. 

• Build high-performance backend services and APIs using C, Go, and/or Rust for control, data ingestion, and orchestration. 

• Develop user-facing applications and internal tools that surface device health, telemetry, and system insights. 

• Design and implement software that runs reliably on Linux-based edge devices as well as in cloud environments. 

• Work with and improve Linux build systems (e.g., Make, CMake, Bazel, Yocto/Buildroot) for repeatable, reproducible builds. 

• Integrate software with embedded systems, real-time data pipelines, and hardware control layers. 

• Own software quality through testing, code reviews, CI/CD integration, and production monitoring. 

• Collaborate cross-functionally to define system requirements, interfaces, and long-term technical direction. 

• Mentor engineers and provide technical leadership on architecture, performance, and reliability.  

Qualifications 

• Bachelor’s, Master’s, or PhD in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or equivalent practical experience. 

• 2 years of professional software engineering experience, with demonstrated ownership of complex systems. 

• Strong proficiency in C, Go, and/or Rust, with the ability to reason about memory, concurrency, and performance. 

• Solid experience developing on Linux, including debugging, profiling, and systems-level development. 

• Hands-on experience with Linux build systems such as Make, CMake, Bazel, Yocto, or Buildroot. 

• Experience building and operating backend services, APIs, and data pipelines. 

• Familiarity with modern software development practices: version control, CI/CD, testing, and code review. 
• Strong communication skills and ability to work effectively across software, hardware, and infrastructure teams. 

Bonus Qualifications 

• Experience in the energy, power electronics, industrial, or embedded systems domains. 

• Knowledge of real-time systems, distributed systems, or high-availability architectures. 
• Experience with time-series data, telemetry systems, or control systems. 

Work Environment 

• Occasional travel (up to 20%) may be required, including international travel.
