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.

Why do we need you?

Our goal is to stop grid-ignited wildfires. To do that, our devices need to run robust, well-tested, and power-efficient firmware. We are looking for you to help us develop that firmware. You will solve challenges related to power consumption, communications, and signal processing, enabling our devices to detect increasingly subtle faults in increasingly remote regions.

Responsibilities

This is what you’ll be doing:

  • Develop C++ firmware for our microcontroller platform
  • Implement C++ drivers for microcontroller peripherals and external sensors
  • Work with our backend codebase to develop and test device communications
  • Maintain and extend our build system to support various embedded hardware platforms
  • Develop efficient data processing and collection algorithms in a resource-constrained environment
  • Develop hardware in the loop (HITL) testing infrastructure
Required Skills

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

  • 5+ years embedded software engineering experience (RTOS’s or bare metal)
  • Comfortable working across multiple domains (hardware, firmware, software)
  • Strong C and/or C++ knowledge
  • Python or another scripting
  • Comfortable using Git
  • Comfortable in a Linux development environment
  • Comfortable debugging with an oscilloscope and/or logic analyzer
Bonus Skills

Your application will have a higher chance of standing out if you have one (or more) of the following skills or experiences. If you, however, have all of the required skills but none of the bonus skills we still encourage you to apply.

  • Strong understanding of operating system and real-time operating system concepts
  • Good at reading datasheets and schematics
  • Assembly (extra bonus points for ARM)
  • Basic web programming knowledge (backend)
  • Experience developing hardware
  • Experience with LoRa, SigFox, or other Low Power Wide Area Networks (LPWANS)
  • Experience with cellular communications
  • Experience with optimizing for low power
  • Experience with digital signal processing (DSP)
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

Salary range in California: $125k - $164k

Gridware is an equal-opportunity employer. We want applicants of diverse backgrounds and hire without regard to race, color, religion, sex, national origin, citizenship, disability, or any other characteristic protected by law.

Gridware is headquartered in Walnut Creek, CA.
