Job Description Summary

Senior Software Engineer Edge Intelligence & Decentralized Grid Operations

Were building the foundation for next-generation decentralized grid operationsdistributing intelligence to the resilient edge to enable autonomous self-healing and adaptive grid management. As a Full-Stack Software Engineer you will design and deliver edge intelligence federated data pipelines and digital twin components that drive real-time reliability autonomy and security for critical energy systems.

This is a hands-on high-impact role in a startup-style fast moving environment where ideas turn into realization fast. Youll will report directly to the Electrification Chief Architect in CTO organization and working closely with product leaders R&D teams and customers to incubate test validate and scale GEV technologies for the Grid of the Future.

Job Description

Key Responsibilities

  • Design and deploy edge-native software components for decentralized sensing control and autonomous grid operations
  • Engineer fault-tolerant data synchronization and concurrency control across distributed edge environments
  • Build federated data pipelines enabling distributed nodes to collaborate securely without central coordination
  • Integrate field data sources including SCADA PMUs and DER controllers
  • Implement IoT protocols and networks such as LoRa MQTT DNP3 and Modbus
  • Bridge the gap between simulation environments and live grid operations
  • Integrate AI/ML capabilities and federated control frameworks into next-generation grid platforms
  • Contribute to digital twin design using graph-based and physics-informed modeling
  • Support experimentation and prototyping at customer test sites and simulation environments
  • Work closely with data scientists control engineers infrastructure specialists and customers
  • Collaborate with systems engineers to align software with physical grid systems
  • Partner with product teams to rapidly turn ideas into validated scalable solutions

Critical Technical skills and Experience Requirements

  • Strong skills in script writing using MATLAB Go Rust Python (backend/edge) and HTML CSS TypeScript/React or Angular(UI).
  • Deep Experience with Kubernetes/K3s Kafka/NATS MQTT gRPC PulsarInfluxDB/TimescaleDB and observability stacks (Prometheus Grafana).
  • Work Experience with Digital Twin / Simulation modeling: OpenFMB Modelica graph-based modeling) and AI/ML model algorithms.
  • Hands-on work with AI/ML models in production environments.
  • Work experience federated architectures and resilient edge software applied to with Transmission and distribution applications.

Preferred Background

  • Masters degree electrical engineering or computer science with a minimum of 5 years experience in the power industry
  • Minimum 3 years of hands-on experience in building real-time simulation platforms
