Software & Controls Engineer Energy Management Systems

is building the power infrastructure that makes the AI era possible. As AI demand surges past what the grid and traditional data centers can support provides a new class of power technology proven at gigawatt scale and trusted by the worlds leading cloud and AI companies. Our systems are already deployed across 2.5 GW of hyper-scale campuses validated by top U.S. national labs and certified for grid-safe operation by major utilities. With real products in the field were scaling faster than the grid can transforming power from a bottleneck into a competitive advantage for the companies building the future.

The Software & Controls Engineer is responsible for the design development testing integration and commissioning of control software and automation systems that ensure the reliable efficient and safe operation of energy storage systems and power infrastructure projects. This role bridges software engineering control systems and field deployment working closely with internal engineering teams project management vendors and clients to deliver high-performance control and SCADA solutions that meet safety regulatory and operational requirements.

Key Responsibilities

• Design model and implement control algorithms and control strategies for energy storage systems and power infrastructure.
• Contribute to system architecture discussions and define control strategy requirements and functional specifications.
• Design develop and maintain PLC HMI and embedded/control software for energy storage and distributed energy systems.
• Configure integrate and maintain SCADA systems for BESS and power infrastructure projects.
• Write clean efficient maintainable and well-documented code following best practices.
• Build automation scripts testing tools simulation environments and continuous integration pipelines.
• Implement version control software documentation and CI/CD workflows.
• Collaborate with electrical mechanical firmware and field service teams to ensure full system functionality and seamless integration.
• Support the selection configuration and integration of control hardware including controllers relays meters and network devices.
• Conduct Factory Acceptance Tests (FATs) and Site Acceptance Tests (SATs).
• Diagnose and resolve issues related to control logic real-time execution PLC/SCADA behavior and system performance both remotely and on-site.
• Ensure compliance with cybersecurity requirements and relevant standards and codes (e.g. UL IEEE NFPA).
• Support installation commissioning field deployments and ongoing operational troubleshooting.
• Interface with clients vendors and internal stakeholders to provide technical documentation training and ongoing support.
