Strobe is building the world's largest power plant — not a single site, but a distributed fleet of buildings, batteries, EVs, and generators buying and selling power in real time across wholesale energy markets.
We need a senior engineer to own our data integration and cloud infrastructure layer — the connective tissue between utilities, grid operators, OEM hardware, weather services, and our optimization engine.
– OEM hardware integrations — API and data bridges to building equipment manufacturers for monitoring, control, and telemetry
– Green Button Connect pipelines — ingesting interval consumption, billing, and meter data from utilities (ConEd, PG&E, SCE, etc.) via OAuth2 + ESPI
– Weather and solar forecast data pipelines
– Utility bill reproduction engine — modeling site economics before and after Strobe to forecast financial impact across dozens of rate structures. This simulation infrastructure is core to how we sell and deliver value.
Strobe is building the world's largest power plant — not a single site, but a distributed fleet of buildings, batteries, EVs, and generators buying and selling power in real time across wholesale energy markets.
We need a senior engineer to own our data integration and cloud infrastructure layer — the connective tissue between utilities, grid operators, OEM hardware, weather services, and our optimization engine.
What you'd own:
– Wholesale market integrations (NYISO, CAISO, ERCOT) — real-time pricing, capacity markets, demand response signals
– OEM hardware integrations — API and data bridges to building equipment manufacturers for monitoring, control, and telemetry
– Green Button Connect pipelines — ingesting interval consumption, billing, and meter data from utilities (ConEd, PG&E, SCE, etc.) via OAuth2 + ESPI
– Weather and solar forecast data pipelines
– Utility bill reproduction engine — modeling site economics before and after Strobe to forecast financial impact across dozens of rate structures. This simulation infrastructure is core to how we sell and deliver value.
– Event-driven AWS infrastructure (Lambda, API Gateway, AppSync/GraphQL, EventBridge, IoT Core, TimeStream, Amplify, CloudWatch)
– Terraform IaC — real module design, remote state, multi-workspace patterns
– Observability and alerting on systems where downtime means missed market events and real dollars
Strong fit if you have:
– Deep AWS experience (IAM, Lambda, API Gateway, AppSync, EventBridge, TimeStream or similar TSDB)
– Production Terraform (modules, remote state, multi-workspace patterns)
– Extensive Python (pydantic for models, click for CLIs, boto3 for AWS, async pipelines)
– Experience integrating messy third-party APIs at scale (utilities, government, energy, OEMs)
– Comfort with on-call for systems that control physical hardware and move real money
Stack: Python / TypeScript / Rust / Terraform / AWS / GraphQL (AppSync) / MQTT / Grafana — AI-agent-optimized monorepo with deep investment in agent-enabled engineering efficiency.
Small team, high ownership, no layers. 5 days/week onsite at Newlab, Brooklyn Navy Yard.
