Job Description

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 Senior 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.

This is an exciting opportunity for someone who wants to think creatively and be innovative. Someone ready to step out of their comfort zone. Someone eager to build a robust, resilient and high-availability product. This is a chance to be at the forefront of new technology and help us answer the question “How do you build, test & deploy software that will create a cleaner and smarter grid that solves clients’ engineering problems?”

  • Implement web services based on specifications from 3rd party vendor devices.
  • Work closely with other developers with a diverse skill set and technology expertise to provide scalable solutions.
  • Review teammates code to ensure quality.
  • Work in an Agile/SCRUM team setting including cross-functional structures and varying levels of management.

Here’s what you bring:

  • The education. You have a degree in Computer Science or equivalent.
  • The experience. You have 8+ years developing Python web apps. You’re familiar with version control systems and Python testing frameworks.
  • The technical expertise. You have expertise in Python. Your programming skills are strong and you can quickly learn new technologies.
  • The passion. You are equally passionate about cleantech as you are about quality coding.
  • The vision. You can focus on the big picture and the details. Robust, reliable and scalable is your motto.
  • The communication. You have exceptional written and oral communication skills. You are a strong presenter.
