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.

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)
Experience developing and debugging hardware
Strong understanding of operating system and real-time operating system concepts
Assembly language (extra bonus points for ARM)
Basic web programming knowledge (backend)
Comfortable debugging with an oscilloscope and/or logic analyzer
Professional experience deploying firmware
