neuroGrid
CEO & Co-Founder | Revolutionizing the Energy Development Process
Staff Software Engineer (Applied AI & Data Workflows)
Location:
Salt Lake City, Utah (In-Office, Full-Time; relocation support available)
Reports to:
Head of Engineering, US
neuroGrid is a well-funded startup building a next-generation SaaS platform to accelerate the development of modern, low-cost power plants and AI infrastructure, including data centers, solar, wind, battery storage, nuclear, and transmission.
Energy is the world's largest and most critical industry, and it's undergoing a once-in-a-century transformation driven by rapid AI datacenter expansion. Our AI-powered platform is built to meet this moment. By transforming fragmented data, manual workflows, and institutional knowledge into a single intelligent work orchestration system, we help energy and data center developers move faster, reduce costs, and make better decisions.
Our product strategy is intentionally broad and ambitious, supporting users across multiple domains: land control, interconnection, permitting, engineering, finance, stakeholder engagement, and more.
The Role We are looking for a
Staff Software Engineer
who combines deep technical expertise with strong product instincts and a track record of owning systems that materially moved key business metrics.
You will be a senior technical leader on the team, responsible for designing and delivering data-heavy, workflow-oriented software with applied AI at its core. You'll work closely with teammates in the US and India to architect systems, ship end-to-end features, set engineering standards, and mentor other engineers as we build our MVP and beyond.
This role is ideal for someone who:
Has
5–10 years of experience
building and scaling complex software systems.
Has
owned a major product or platform build
that contributed directly to company success (e.g., revenue growth, new product line, major efficiency gains).
Is excited to work in-person with the founding team in
Salt Lake City
and help shape both the product and the engineering culture from an early stage.
Responsibilities Technical Leadership & Architecture
Lead design and implementation of core platform services, data models, and workflow engines.
Make architecture decisions that balance speed, reliability, and long-term scalability.
Define and advocate for engineering best practices across code quality, testing, observability, and security.
Apply strong systems fundamentals (concurrency, transactions, indexing, caching, consistency) to ensure correctness and performance across data flows, documents, and geospatial workflows.
Build operationally excellent services with proper observability, monitoring, alerting, and performance tuning for both real-time and batch data movement.
Collaborate with AI experts to integrate LLMs, vector search, and orchestration tools into customer workflows that deliver genuine value.
End-to-End Delivery
Own features from idea to production: scoping, design, implementation, code review, deployment, and iteration.
Partner with Product and Design to translate customer needs into elegant, performant user experiences.
Work across the stack as needed (data, backend, and collaborating closely with frontend).
Serve as a technical mentor and thought partner to other engineers.
Help establish a high-ownership, low-ego, collaborative engineering culture.
Contribute to hiring, onboarding, and shaping our engineering processes as we scale.
Customer & Business Impact
Engage directly with customers and early lighthouse users to understand workflows and validate assumptions.
Use data and feedback to prioritize work that moves key product, customer, and business metrics.
Requirements
5–10 years of professional software engineering experience , with significant time spent on complex, data-heavy enterprise or workflow SaaS products.
Demonstrated
ownership of at least one major system or product area
that drove clear business impact (e.g., new product launch, major workflow automation, significant revenue or adoption lift).
Strong experience building
data-centric applications , including:
Relational + NoSQL databases
Data modeling, indexing, and performance optimization
Integrating data from multiple systems into coherent workflows
Hands‑on experience with
applied AI in production , such as:
Integrating LLMs and AI APIs
Building vector‑search / RAG‑based workflows
Designing AI‑powered features that are reliable, observable, and safe
Proficiency with modern cloud infrastructure (AWS/Azure/GCP), containerization, CI/CD, and infrastructure‑as‑code.
Proven ability to execute in
fast‑moving, ambiguous, early‑stage environments .
Excellent written and verbal communication skills; comfortable collaborating across cultures and time zones.
Location:
Able to work
on‑site in Salt Lake City, Utah , or willing to relocate.
Bonus
Experience with
energy sector workflows
(utility‑scale renewables, data centers, grid infrastructure, transmission, etc.).
Strong proficiency with
React + TypeScript
on the front end and
Python or Node.js
on the back end.
Background in
geospatial data , enterprise document systems, or integrations with external SaaS tools.
Familiarity with
secure‑by‑default
enterprise SaaS design and compliance‑aware architectures.
Prior
startup or early‑stage experience , especially in B2B SaaS or AI‑native products.
Compensation & Growth
Competitive cash compensation plus
meaningful equity
in a fast‑growing climate‑tech startup.
As a
foundational member of neuroGrid's engineering leadership , you'll have significant ownership and the opportunity to shape both the product and the company's technical direction.
Clear scope to grow your impact over time as the platform, customer base, and engineering team scale.
How to Apply If you're excited to architect and build data‑heavy, AI‑native software from the ground up and want your work to help accelerate the energy transition and AI infrastructure buildout, we'd love to talk.
Please send your resume and a brief note about your experience and interest in neuroGrid to
