Interested in driving software innovation in the utility sector? In this position, you’ll collaborate with a team of like-minded software engineers, data scientists, and utility experts to develop high-quality software products.

Come join a fast-growing team on a literal mission to save the world.

At E Source, we are creating a more sustainable future in partnership with utilities. We’re a solutions-based data science software, research, and consulting firm that has been a change agent in the utility sector for over 30 years.

Join us and have your design and applications make a difference.

The software engineer position is focused on a modern technology stack using the latest software development frameworks, data-intensive distributed microservices, relational and nonrelational database management systems, and containerized cloud infrastructure within a well-established continuous-delivery and Agile development process.

What you’ll do

• Collaborate with product and engineering leadership to help define product architecture and implement secure, reliable, scalable software products
• Collaborate with internal and client stakeholders to translate business problems into technical solutions
• Participate in continuous learning activities to understand latest technology trends and share knowledge across the team and organization

What will make you a good fit:

• At least 2 years experience in Java (11 or 17+) software development
• Knowledge or experience architecting software solutions within the AWS Cloud Platform
• Experience with data modeling and relational database design and implementation
• Experience with NoSQL databases such as MongoDB and Cassandra
• Experience with enterprise integration patterns and creating and managing microservices in a containerized environment (Spring Boot, Docker, and Kubernetes)
• Experience with knowledge graph technologies and techniques
• Experience programming with Python
• Experience working with GIT and GITOPS, and building CI/CD pipelines with Jenkins or AWS code pipelines
• Product-oriented mindset
• Proven track record of efficiently designing, developing, and releasing software products both independently and collaboratively
• Creative mind, keen ability, and the initiative to think beyond
• Ability to effectively communicate with technical teams and business stakeholders
• Passion for energy and the environment
• BS or MS in software engineering, computer science, or a related field of study

A little about E Source

Utilities across the US and Canada face the same fundamental, day-to-day challenges: to ensure reliable service for every customer while maintaining and modernizing aging distribution networks and meeting regulatory requirements—all while keeping rates affordable. At the same time, climate change has created a common, universal call to action: to reduce our carbon impact, improve our environment, and ensure the prosperity of future generations.

At E Source, we’re dedicated to helping every utility become a Sustainable Utility. That means doing the hard work it takes to achieve goals that often seem at odds with one another:

• Environmental responsibility: Decarbonizing operations, reducing emissions, eliminating water leaks, and finding efficiencies
• Reliability: Providing safe, continuous, and consistent service in the face of increasing volatility caused by climate change, including extreme weather, drought, and fire
• Equity: Making services and programs truly available to all, especially low- and moderate-income residential customers and small and midsize businesses who are often disproportionately impacted by societal events
• Financial stability: Ensuring a bottom line that affords capital and operational expenditures while enabling innovation and giving back to our communities

E Source blends industry-leading research, predictive data science, and solution services to help utilities make better decisions to serve their customers, their bottom line, and our planet. With a commitment to practical innovation, we use more than three decades of utility-focused experience and our unique solution set to help our clients become a Sustainable Utility.

• We offer excellent insurance packages, including medical, dental, and vision plans; company-paid life insurance; company-paid long- and short-term disability insurance; and medical and dependent-care flexible spending plans.
• We provide a flexible time off (FTO) program; E Source employees can take as many paid days off per year as they need, with manager approval, while fulfilling their work obligations and ensuring proper coverage of their responsibilities.
• We offer flexible schedules, flexible work locations, and a paid parental leave benefit.
• We provide a 401(k)/RRSP plan with a 3% employer match.

The budgeted salary for this position is $79,000 to $105,000 USD + annual bonus up to 5%. Actual pay will be adjusted based on experience.
