Job Description

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

Our team engineers an advanced sensing system to continuously analyze both the electrical and mechanical behavior of grid assets. Utilizing high-precision sensor arrays, the system identifies and allows preemptive mitigation of faults. The technology has been proven with utilities to bolster safety, reliability, and reduce customer outage durations. The demand for power will only increase. We protect the grid of today while we build the grid of tomorrow.

Gridware is privately held and backed by the best climate-tech and Silicon Valley investors. We are headquartered in the Bay Area in northern California.

Role Description

Gridware is seeking a creative and fast-paced electrical research engineer to join our growing team. At Gridware, you will be responsible for evaluating and developing novel sensing technologies for incorporation in our flagship embedded product. The ideal candidate will possess deep knowledge of semiconductor technologies, analog/digital circuit design, and classical physics.

Responsibilities

This is what you’ll be doing:

  • Prototype low power physical sensing systems for detecting complex electromechanical phenomena
  • Build data acquisition and physical experimentation infrastructure
  • Conduct literature reviews and research on electronic sensing technologies
  • Work closely with cross-functional teams, including data scientists, mechanical engineers, and product managers
Required Skills

To move forward in the application process you should have all of these:

  • 4+ years of professional experience with physical sensing and transducers
  • 4+ years of professional experience with custom embedded data acquisition systems
  • 4+ years of professional experience with printed circuit board design
  • Experience with analog circuit design. Applicants should be able to build and debug signal conditioning circuits, filters, amplifiers, and transistor circuits.
  • Strong fundamentals in E&M

Most relevant to people with degrees in:

  • Electrical Engineering
  • Computer Engineering
Application

Although we do not require candidates to submit a cover letter, candidates who wish to have their application stand out are invited to write a cover letter outlining one or all of the following things in a bullet-point format:

  • Where you have acquired the required skills
  • Which (if any) of the bonus skills you have and where you acquired them
  • Why you are interested in this role
Benefits

We offer competitive benefits that help employees to thrive and grow. These benefits include:

  • Flexible starting hours to reduce commute
  • Health Insurance = We cover 100% of Gold and Platinum health insurance plan premiums and up to $800 of plan premiums for dependents.
  • Dental & Vision = We also cover 100% of the premiums of an excellent Dental and Vision Plan and 100% of the premiums for one dependent.
  • Paid Parental Leave
  • 401K
  • Free parking and a commuter allowance
