Job description

Role Description

We’re scaling the deployment of critical infrastructure monitoring devices to detect real-world fault events that lead to wildfires. The platform you’ll build and operate ingests millions of events per day from devices in the field, powers customer-facing dashboards and alerting, and supports the data science work that turns raw signals into grid intelligence.

You will own AWS infrastructure, Kubernetes (EKS), CI/CD, and observability end-to-end, partnering with our Cloud Security team to keep the platform safe and compliant, and with backend, firmware, and data teams to keep them shipping fast. As an early member of the DevOps team, you’ll have a direct hand in shaping how Gridware builds, deploys, and runs production systems for years to come.

This describes the ideal candidate; many of us have picked up this expertise along the way. Even if you meet only part of this list, we encourage you to apply!

• Paid parental leave
• Alternating day off (every other Monday)
• "Off the Grid", a two week per year paid break for all employees.
• Commuter allowance
• Company-paid training
