About Voltus

Voltus is a leading company for Distributed Energy Resources (DERs). Our mission is to be the platform that fulfills the promise of the energy transition. The Voltus platform connects any DER to any energy market across the US and Canada, providing flexibility, reliability, and resilience to the grid while generating revenue for our partners.
We hire teammates who are bright, gritty, and good and who have a genuine passion for delivering a cleaner energy future and for working in a fast-paced, entrepreneurial environment. We are a remote and virtual company, distributed across US, Canada, and abroad.

The Role

Voltus is hiring for multiple roles at the senior level on several teams. As a Senior Engineer you will find a home on one of these teams and assume a technical leadership role in our backend solutions and front end technologies where appropriate to the team. You'll join a fully remote team tackling complex energy industry challenges, collaborating with experienced engineers on our modern tech stack, and contributing to core systems that decarbonize the grid.

Your work will involve building core backend logic, APIs, designing data pipelines, or creating customer interfaces. A strong candidate can speak to their alignment with our core values of bright, gritty, and good, and you want to work with others like you in a highly collaborative environment.

Technologies We Use

We build scalable software using Python, Postgres, Go, FastAPI, Temporal, Delta Lake, Clickhouse, Typescript, and React, running our services using Docker and the HashiCorp stack on AWS. We do not expect candidates to have a background in every tool listed here; instead, we place a high value on strong foundational programming skills and a genuine eagerness to learn and grow. Successful candidates can demonstrate significant depth in some of core technologies.
