Software Engineer – Backend Systems (Energy Infrastructure Platform)

We’re working with a bold, mission-driven power company that’s rebuilding the backbone of the American energy system. By combining software, distributed infrastructure, and engineering speed, they are rolling out a next-gen platform that strengthens the grid and empowers communities nationwide.

If you’re passionate about transforming critical infrastructure and building software that touches the real world, this is your moment.

The team is developing the operating system powering their entire distributed energy platform. From orchestrating fleets of batteries and real-time grid response to managing field deployments and automating logistics, this is the digital foundation for the future of American power.

As a backend software engineer, you’ll help scale the core systems that bring this infrastructure to life.

• Design core backend services and scalable APIs that control everything from grid balancing to field ops.
• Own the stack:
  Work primarily in Go and Python, deploying into modern AWS-based cloud environments.
• Use Terraform to define infrastructure-as-code and Temporal to orchestrate complex workflows.
• Collaborate across disciplines—deployment, hardware, and operations—to build high-reliability systems that cross physical and digital boundaries.
• Every line of code you write will have real-world impact on homes, businesses, and the grid.

• 2+ years of professional experience in backend software development (open to multiple seniority levels).
• Proficiency in Go, Python, Java, or similar languages.
• Familiarity with AWS, Docker, Kubernetes, or other modern cloud and container technologies.
• Passion for clean, maintainable code and solid testing practices.
• Strong product mindset—you're thinking about the impact and user outcome, not just the implementation.

This is your chance to build systems that don’t just ship a product, they power a nationwide platform that’s redefining how energy works in America. You’ll shape system behavior from silicon to deployment, partner with elite engineers, and lead innovation in one of the most critical and dynamic sectors of our time.
