Job description

You will work closely with data scientists, power systems engineers and fellow developers on developing control and monitoring solutions for smart grids and renewable energy power plants. An example project that you could be working on: Virtual Power Plant platform-a turnkey solution that enables intelligent management of grid networks, distributed energy resources (DERs), and energy storage. The platform enables many DERs to be aggregated into a virtual power plant which can be deployed for the provision of energy services, such as frequency regulation. The total integrated system includes numerous components, such as: embedded energy management systems, device communication interfaces, advanced control, and optimization algorithms, physical / cyber security systems, data processing services, user interfaces (both embedded and cloud-based), sensors, and measurement systems. Your tasks will include:

  • Working with our team and third parties to develop system designs, including the definition of functional requirements, data models, architecture and specification of communication protocols
  • Developing new and existing back-end applications
  • Diagnosing and optimizing the performance of critical, high-throughput applications
  • Contributing to cutting-edge innovation and R&D projects which push the boundaries of the current state-of-the art in smart-grids and energy management technologies
  • Mentoring junior developers.

About the company

Spectral is a smart energy systems and platforms integrator driven by purpose. Presently, the grid's capacity for renewable energy is limited (10-20%) because of the fluctuating supply from renewable sources, to maintain stability. A successful clean energy transition hinges on innovative approaches to energy management and new business models. Spectral develops technological solutions for energy storage, demand flexibility, and local renewable energy to maximize their potential and build better smart grids. As Spectralites, we are dedicated to accelerating the world's transition to a sustainable energy future. Achieving such a large-scale system change will require a monumental effort from everyone, and it will undoubtedly present significant hurdles. Rapid electrification across sectors and renewable energy expansion are creating grid congestion and complex balancing challenges. Our team is addressing the fascinating but difficult issue of energy inefficiency in modern structures, even with improved standards, focusing on poor climate system management and insufficient data transparency. By developing and deploying advanced technology platforms, we're driving faster change in real estate and energy, resulting in well-connected, more sustainable, and high-value assets.   You must create an Indeed account before continuing to the company website to apply
