Go/ Golang Developer (all genders)

How you can contribute to gridX

Do stuff that matters - become part of our ‘Ready for gridX’ team and play your part in digitalising the energy industry with us and making renewable energy accessible and affordable everywhere.
The cross-functional ‘Ready for gridX’ team is looking forward to working with you and wants to take the digitalisation of the energy industry to the next level!
We are looking for a Mid-Level/ Intermediate Developer (all genders) with at least 1+ years of experience with Golang and the design, build and operation of production systems.

Your tasks in detail:

• Development of software tools to extend and automate compatibilities with the edge device (gridBox)
• Development and operation of services for protocol stacks in the cloud and on the edge device (gridBox)
• Development of workflows for Seamless Commissioning of DERs and the gridBox
• Assist in developing, troubleshooting and revising our ongoing application and collaborate with team members to break down, refine and accomplish tasks in agile work mode
• Establish best practices in coding style, testing strategies and workflows
• Show the world how to transition to a renewable and decentralised energy system by developing products that our customers love to use
• Securing real-world data from the edge device (gridBox) in the internal cloud and expanding and improving our release and deployment tool for the edge device (gridBox)

This is how you and your application stand out

• You have been working with Go/Golang for at least 2+ years and preferably have an understanding of IoT that you can apply
• You are familiar with CI/CD and have already gained experience in designing, building and operating production systems in the cloud and at the edge
• You are familiar with network technologies and are able to recognise and solve related problems
• ‘You build it, you run it’ is not a hollow slogan for you: you want to see how your code performs in the wild and rely on observability & fast feedback from production environments

Nice to have:

• If you have already worked with energy related devices such as inverters, meters, EV chargers or heat pumps, that is a big plus for us!
• Prior knowledge of communication protocols like Modbus, EEBUS and OCPP are also held in high regard for our team.
