Who we are?

Creating a planet fueled by reliable, clean energy isn’t what keeps us up at night; it’s what gets us out of bed. At Opus One Solutions, our software platform GridOS® helps us pursue solutions that will change how countries access, optimize and distribute electrical energy. From microgrids that keep things running in the event of an outage, to helping electric utilities optimize their operations and allowing homeowners to feed energy into a power grid, we're powering a more sustainable future.

Our tech stack:

Our tech stack is deep because we interact with real things in the real world where the outcome matters. Our systems collect, analyze, and interact with other systems in real-time. Our engineering team uses:

• Python and Flask to build the backend of GridOS.
• React and Typescript to build the frontend of GridOS.
• PyTest and Jest to test our web application.
• Docker, Terraform and Ansible for containerization and deployment.
• Gitlab for repository management and CI.

The opportunity:

Opus One Solutions is looking for a Software Developer who wants to be a key player on our GridOS team. The GridOS team at Opus One builds our flagship product, GridOS. It’s a cross-functional team with expertise in frontend, backend and power system analysis.
