Strobe | Senior Infrastructure & Data Integration Engineer | Brooklyn, NYC | ONSITE | Full-time
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.
