Full Job Description

Location: United States (Remote or Hybrid in SF Office Available) What is Verse? Our mission is to make the case for clean energy irrefutable. The grid wasn't built for what our customers are building. So, we built a way around it. Verse gets data center sites and large loads online 2 to 3 years faster—without waiting on utility or grid operators for interconnection approval. Speed to interconnection is the primary bottleneck, and so we built the Aria platform and our Dispatch Intelligence suite of tools to leapfrog the interconnection logjam and increase the availability and utilization of energy from sources like wind and solar. Verse is trusted by Fortune 500 businesses and the operators powering the AI economy. In addition to Dispatch Intelligence, our Portfolio Insights software suite unifies grid connection, market signals, settlement data, and automated dispatch with the data infrastructure that values every asset for some of the largest companies in the world. We integrate utility bills, PPAs, contracts, and live asset states into one holistic queryable layer for enterprise planning, risk, and valuation teams. The Role You will be an engineering leader supporting technical staff who design, build, and maintain our Dispatch Intelligence software stack for Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) applications. Electrical energy is the foundation of modern industrial civilization, and the electric power grid is undergoing a major overhaul and transformation as demand for electric power is increasing once again after years of flat growth. Meanwhile, BESS costs have plummeted nearly tenfold in the same time frame. As a result, BESS applications are uniquely positioned to play a significant role for everyone on the grid. You will lead a team implementing and testing site configuration, monitoring, and control features for these BESS applications. Key Responsibilities Support members of our technical staff developing site gateway software for battery energy storage fle
