About Gridware

Gridware is a San Francisco-based technology company dedicated to protecting and enhancing the electrical grid. We pioneered a groundbreaking new class of grid management called active grid response (AGR), focused on monitoring the electrical, physical, and environmental aspects of the grid that affect reliability and safety. Gridware’s advanced Active Grid Response platform uses high-precision sensors to detect potential issues early, enabling proactive maintenance and fault mitigation. This comprehensive approach helps improve safety, reduce outages, and ensure the grid operates efficiently. The company is backed by climate-tech and Silicon Valley investors.

Role Description

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.

Develop C/C++ firmware for our microcontroller platform

Implement 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 unit tests, write and execute test plans

Strong C and/or C++ knowledge

Python or another scripting language

Comfortable using Git

Comfortable in a Linux development environment

Comfortable working across multiple domains (hardware, firmware, software)

3+ years embedded software engineering experience (Embedded Linux, RTOS’s, bare metal, etc)
