DevOps Engineer

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

The DevOps Engineer will work collaboratively with software engineering to deploy and operate GridOS. They will help automate and streamline our operations and processes, build and maintain tools for deployment, monitoring and operations to improve the overall development and delivery efficiency and effectiveness, as well as troubleshoot and resolve issues in our dev, test and production infrastructure issues
