About the role

Are you interested in building the technical foundation of the worldwide transition to clean energy? Do you enjoy working with a highly motivated and talented team to deliver mission critical software?

What they're looking for

  • Strong production software development experience in Go and/or Python. You build and maintain real services and tooling, write tests, and care about code quality, not just scripts
  • Roughly 6+ years of professional software engineering , with several in DevOps / SRE operating production systems. You have owned deployments and been on the hook for reliability and on-call
  • Strong infrastructure-as-code skills (Terraform or similar). You have worked in a codebase that did not start out fully covered and improved it
  • Hands-on operational experience with stateful systems : relational databases, message brokers, or both. You have done a version upgrade, a replication change, or a restore under pressure and know why backups you have not tested do not count
  • Comfort operating and improving systems you did not build. Some of our most important work involves reading unfamiliar code, mapping undocumented dependencies, and making careful changes to systems whose original authors are not available to ask
  • You communicate clearly, write good documentation, mentor teammates, and can drive cross-team coordination on shared infrastructure
