Role Overview
We’re looking for a Director of Engineering to lead Gridware’s company-wide data platforms. This is a hands-on, engineering leadership role: you’ll set the architecture, drive the roadmap, and build the team for a platform that’s live and in production today, with real customers, a legacy migration in flight, and a federated ownership model across a large number of business domains.
You’ll be working with novel, never-before-seen data: high-frequency mechanical, acoustic, electrical, and environmental signals from tens of thousands of power-constrained edge devices with intermittent connectivity, where ground truth comes from line crews in the field rather than a labeling vendor. This role will define new data problems that can be solved and change what the rest of the organization believes is possible with Gridware data.
