Menlo Park, United States Mainspring Energy, Inc. Full time
Job DescriptionJob Description

Company Overview

Driven by our vision of the affordable, reliable, net-zero carbon grid of the future, Mainspring has developed a new category of power generation — the linear generator — that delivers local, scalable, and fuel-flexible power to help accelerate the transition to the net-zero carbon grid.

The unique combination of attributes offered by Mainspring’s linear generator enables applications on both the commercial and utility sides of the meter for the $816B global electricity equipment market. We serve a wide range of Fortune 500 customers across markets and industries as well as top-tier utilities and other gridside providers.

We are looking to build relationships with people who share our values:

  • Pragmatic Optimism. Building a new category of world-class power generation requires the optimism of ambition and creativity, balanced with practicality to solve problems efficiently. The challenges that arise are opportunities for growth.

  • Excellence without Ego. We bring expertise and commitment to creating the best customer experience, from sales to deployment and service, just as we apply deep technical rigor to building and delivering world-class products. We strive for excellence and behave as leaders with the humility to acknowledge our challenges, both collectively and as individual contributors.

  • Proactive Collaboration. The integration and cross-disciplinary nature of Mainspring’s business requires intentionally seeking out others who bring different skills, perspectives, and priorities. Our culture of inclusion and respect extends beyond our team to interactions with our partners and customers.

Mainspring is based in Menlo Park and has partnered with top-tier investors and utilities such as Khosla Ventures, Bill Gates, NextEra, and American Electric Power. More information can be found at www.mainspringenergy.com.

Responsibilities

Mainspring Energy’s revolutionary linear generator is a sophisticated system that produces clean, low-carbon electricity using a distributed network of embedded systems. The distributed embedded system requires a robust communication platform that is rapidly evolving and expanding. This role will architect and develop foundational software components for the communications platform.

This embedded software engineering role emphasizes communications and interfaces for distributed embedded systems.

In the first three months, you will implement software components used across the system to communicate between embedded systems.

In the first six months, you will help develop a roadmap for the evolution of the distributed embedded systems communication platform to improve system reliability while enabling faster application development.

In the first year, you will be responsible for implementing projects defined in the roadmap you helped develop that enable scaling of the Mainspring linear generator to higher volume production and a larger installed fleet while increasing reliability and maintainability.

As a member of the embedded systems team, you will:

  • Define and implement network APIs between embedded devices using C++ for bare-metal and embedded Linux devices.

  • Develop system and integration testing approaches to verify system-wide communications functionality and performance.

  • Collaborate with other embedded software engineers responsible for application development and control system engineers to define network APIs, implement those APIs, and integrate them into embedded applications.

Qualifications

  • Experience working with some of these: Ethernet, TCP, UDP, DDS, HTTP, and other communication protocols for embedded Linux or bare-metal platforms

  • Developed software in C++ for distributed embedded systems involving real-time communication between multiple devices

  • A desire to create software and systems that have excellent architecture and design

  • A disciplined approach to software development processes

The Bay Area salary for this role is $130k-$155k base + pre-IPO stock options + benefits. This position can be on-site at Menlo Park, CA or remote. The salary will be adjusted to reflect local market conditions based on employee location as well as the experience of the employee.

Does your experience not meet all of our posted requirements? Studies have shown that some people are less likely to apply to positions unless they meet every listed requirement. At Mainspring, we are committed to building a diverse, inclusive, flexible, and collaborative environment, so if you want to help us transition the world to clean and affordable electricity, and don’t meet all posted requirements for a particular role, we’d still love to hear from you. Mainspring can sometimes be flexible enough to shift responsibilities for the right person, or otherwise identify open or upcoming roles that may better fit your professional background.

We generally do not negotiate on salary once we have made an offer. The level of pay within the range will depend on a variety of job-related factors that may include location, relevant prior experience and/or education, or particular skills and expertise. New hires joining the company tend to be paid within the starting base pay range noted above, with opportunities to increase pay over time based on development of additional skills, competencies, and company-specific knowledge.
