Software Engineer, Product Experience (Energy Storage)

The posting, as Verse wrote it

What is Verse?

The race to AI has become the race to power. Every breakthrough in artificial intelligence depends on one thing: access to electricity. But across the country, aging grid infrastructure and years-long interconnection queues are slowing the deployment of the data centers that will power the next generation of innovation. Solving this challenge isn't just about energy—it's about unlocking the future of AI.

At Verse, we're building the energy intelligence platform for the AI economy. Our software helps the world's largest energy consumers achieve faster, cheaper, and cleaner power by combining real-time control of energy assets with complete visibility into their energy portfolio. Backed by Bessemer Venture Partners, GV, Coatue, and NVIDIA, and built by pioneers in grid-scale batteries, energy markets, and enterprise software, we're redefining how the world's most ambitious organizations access and manage energy.

The Role

You will be a member of the technical staff developing product experiences for our Dispatch Intelligence users – customers who want and have battery energy storage systems for additional energy cost savings or faster interconnection times. In this role, you will serve in a “full stack” capacity designing, building, and maintaining frontend and backend components of our energy storage suite of applications. We use Typescript, React, Next.js, Tailwind CSS, Radix/ShadCN, Jest, Cypress, Playwright, Vitest, and Storybook with Echarts and D3/Observable for data visualization for our frontend, and Cloudflare Pages for hosting and content delivery. We rely on identity and auth platforms like Clerk for sign-in flows. Our backend is written in Go and Python with Postgres/AlloyDB and blob storage for data persistence.

Key Responsibilities

• Foster a culture and mindset of well-designed systems, test-driven software, and proactive communication with a high degree of transparency, mutual respect, and consideration for teammates
• Collaborate closely with product managers, UI/UX designers, and other engineers to develop intuitive, user-friendly Buyer Solutions software experiences
• Design, build, test, debug, maintain, and scale user-facing software and closely related components up and down the stack
• Integrate frontend components with backend APIs while efficiently rendering and presenting interactive data visualizations
• Implement backend APIs, middleware, and integrate these layers with databases
• Manage user authentication and authorization, sessions, and tokens using services like Clerk or Auth0 for secure user login systems.
• Optimize application performance, reliability, and scalability with content delivery networks
• Evaluate and recommend new software tools, systems, and architectures as the product evolves

• We move with balance and precision. Life is a delicate balance between the forces of creation, maintenance, and destruction. We understand that each of these forces must be applied with diligence: When we act, we act carefully and responsibly. Speed, hard work, and perseverance must be accompanied by thoughtfulness and reflection.
• We are pursuing a labor of love. We are passionate about renewable energy technology, and we like to dream big. We are disrupting the largest and most expensive machine humanity has ever built – the electricity system. We believe the greatest impact we can have on the climate crisis is through building elegant solutions and exceptional products that delight our customers.
