Senior Platform Engineer

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. For more information, please visit www.Gridware.io.

As Gridware grows, the number of services, environments, and engineers grows with it. We need a senior engineer who treats developer experience as a product — designing paved paths, golden templates, and self-service tooling on top of our AWS / Kubernetes / Argo CD foundation so that teams can focus on the grid, not on YAML.

You will sit alongside our DevOps and Cloud Security engineers. While they own the underlying cloud infrastructure and security posture, you will own the layer above: the workflows, abstractions, and tooling that engineers interact with every day. As a founding member of the platform function, you’ll shape the technical vision, drive cross-team adoption, and measure success by how invisible (and reliable) the platform feels to the rest of engineering.
