scalable ui

You’ll work across the stack to design and scale intuitive, reliable interfaces that sit on top of complex backend services connecting hardware, firmware, and cloud infrastructure. This is a high-ownership, high-impact role that blends frontend craftsmanship with full-stack problem solving, giving you the opportunity to shape how operators interact with and protect critical infrastructure at scale.

We’re looking for a Senior Software Engineer with a strong frontend focus to help build the core software systems that power Gridware’s platform. You’ll lead development of the user-facing tools that visualize grid health, fleet diagnostics, and real-time events from the field, while staying closely connected to the backend systems that support them.

Build and maintain integrations and workflows that connect Gridware’s platform with utility customer systems.
Design and build frontend-heavy, full-stack systems that visualize real-time grid events, fleet health, and operational insights.
Develop data-rich user interfaces in close collaboration with data science and operations teams to support fast, informed decision-making.
Partner with backend and firmware engineers to integrate device control, telemetry, and fleet management into user-facing tools.
Champion frontend and full-stack best practices around testing, performance, observability, and continuous deployment.

Requirements

typescript

react

python

postgresql

opentelemetry

websockets

Background working in hardware–software or IoT ecosystems.
Experience building data-intensive or real-time user interfaces on top of complex systems.
Strong product sense and ability to translate complex technical systems into clear, usable experiences.
Familiarity with observability tools such as OpenTelemetry, Grafana, or Mimir.
Proficiency in TypeScript and React, with working experience in Python and PostgreSQL (or equivalent backend technologies).
Passion for building products that connect software, sensors, and the physical world.
Comfortable taking broad ownership in a fast-paced, high-autonomy environment.
5+ years of experience building production software across frontend and backend, with a strong frontend emphasis.
Experience with real-time or event-driven interfaces (WebSockets, streaming APIs, live dashboards).

Overview

$26.4M Series A

Funding Round

Secured significant investment from notable firms including Sequoia, Lowercarbon, and Fifty Years.

70% Outage Reduction

Service Improvement

Customers experienced a dramatic decrease in the duration of power outages thanks to Gridware's technology.

10,000+ Poles

Deployment Scale

The system has been installed across a vast network spanning thousands of poles and miles of power lines.

7× Revenue Growth

Financial Achievement

The company experienced rapid expansion and success in its first year of operation.

Founded by a former lineman and two Berkeley engineers to revolutionize power grid awareness.
Flagship Gridscope device provides edge analytics and alerts even during outages.
Technology integrates multiple types of sensing to detect hazards like fallen limbs.
After a pilot with PG&E, expanded operations across North America.
Physical tests include extreme conditions like live wire cutting to optimize hazard detection.
Combines solar-powered, ruggedized sensors with a cloud-independent analytics system.

Culture + Values

Passion, innovation, and technology align to modernize the power grid.
Pioneering ‘Active Grid Response’—immediate detection, precise localization, detailed identification, outage monitoring.
Developed in partnership with utilities—focused on working alongside linemen.
Built by a lineman for linemen—understands the rigor and commitment required in the field.
Relentlessly committed to giving crews the right tools to get the job done.

Environment + Sustainability

1,000+ miles & 10K+ poles

Gridscope Deployment Scale

Expanded Gridscope sensor deployment covers over 1,000 miles of power lines and 10,000 poles, enhancing wildfire risk mitigation efforts across multiple states.

70% Outage Reduction

Improved Grid Reliability

Gridscope technology has been shown to significantly reduce outage durations by over 70%, enhancing power grid stability and wildfire prevention.

Technology deployed across five U.S. states to reduce wildfire risk via early detection of vegetation and fallen-line hazards.
Continuous environmental stressor measurement (e.g., vibrations from falling branches) enables predictive maintenance and environmental hazard mitigation.
