Gridware is a San Francisco-based technology company dedicated to protecting and enhancing the electrical grid. We pioneered a groundbreaking new class of grid management called active grid response (AGR), focused on monitoring the electrical, physical, and environmental aspects of the grid that affect reliability and safety. Gridware’s advanced Active Grid Response platform uses high-precision sensors to detect potential issues early, enabling proactive maintenance and fault mitigation. This comprehensive approach helps improve safety, reduce outages, and ensure the grid operates efficiently. The company is backed by climate-tech and Silicon Valley investors. For more information, please visit www.Gridware.io. We are seeking a creative, fast-paced systems research engineer to join our growing Physical R&D team. You will be the go-to expert for how our products detect electromagnetic phenomena around the grid and be the conduit from research to engineering. You will define the engineering performance needed to measure and interpret those phenomena and develop experiments to evaluate our cutting-edge technology. This position offers a unique opportunity to apply your engineering and scientific expertise to solve tangible problems with significant real-world impact, contributing directly to the safety and reliability of the electrical grid. This position does not involve product design.

  • Own and be the subject matter expert for our product measurement chains.
  • Lead the development of product requirements for physical measurements.
  • Develop physical experiments and hardware-in-the loop testbeds to emulate real-world phenomena.
  • Collaborate closely with cross-functional teams, including data scientists, product development engineers, and product managers.
  • Either an MS in mechanical engineering + 3 years of industry experience, or a PhD in mechanical engineering + 2 years of industry experience.
  • 3+ years of experience working within a structured design lifecycle or design control process.
  • 3+ years of hands-on experience in designing and developing product performance tests and/or physical experiments.
  • 3+ years of scientific computing experience in a language like MATLAB or Python.
  • Strong fundamentals in dynamics, kinematics, mechanics of materials, vibrations, and/or robotics.
  • Ability to develop mechatronic/robotic hardware prototypes independently.
  • Familiarity with IoT systems or integrating mechanical designs with embedded hardware.
  • Can lead and deliver on complex, cross-functional problems with strict deadlines.
  • Familiarity with measurement system theory and validation.
  • Strong fundamentals in applied mathematics (linear algebra, ODEs, numerical analysis, dynamical systems).
  • Health, Dental & Vision (Gold and Platinum with some providers plans fully covered)
  • Paid parental leave
  • Alternating day off (every other Monday)
  • “Off the Grid”, a two week per year paid break for all employees.
  • Commuter allowance
