We seek talented individuals who can deliver high-quality service and drive the value of clean energy resources forward. Our culture is collaborative, transparent, and team-oriented. We value open communication and people who bring thoughtful perspectives to the table.

If you're looking for an opportunity to stretch your skills, get creative, and be a part of something new and meaningful, ConnectDER is the place for you!

Flexible paid time off – take the time off that you need. 401K with company match – we want to help you meet your future financial goals.

This is a hands-on technical lead role as part of a team of 3 firmware engineers, reporting to the Director of Electrical Engineering.

In this role, you will own the device software system end to end, defining the architecture, breaking it into well-scoped workstreams, and driving fast, iterative delivery. You will both write production code, and delegate tasks to the team. You will be responsible for the IslandDER digital interface, built to comply with a new device-to-device communication standard we are co-developing with the leading battery and inverter companies for secure integration with home batteries (e.g., Tesla Powerwall) and Vehicle-to-Home (V2H) solutions.

The software monitors voltage and current, drives relays, performs safety checks, and communicates securely with third-party devices and the ConnectDER cloud. The device software breaks into four subsystems you'll own: Data Acquisition (grid/microgrid metering), Control (real-time, safety-critical), Communication (Ethernet, WireGuard, multi-core interfaces), and Integration (fault tolerance, firmware updates, security, logging). In your first year, you might: Write the design diagrams and safety case for the IslandDER's safety-critical software, and sit across the table from the NRTL to defend it. Bring up firmware on a new board with the EE team…
