Come supercharge the distributed energy future for a greener planet with Synop! We are looking for passionate, driven, ownership-minded problem-solvers to help us build products that put electric fleets, batteries, generators, and the sites that run them in a position to succeed.<h2>About Us</h2>Synop is accelerating the transition to commercial electrification by building the foundational infrastructure to manage distributed energy resources (DERs) at scale. Our platform connects electric fleets, chargers, batteries, generators, and grid signals into a unified interface that empowers our customers to control energy intelligently, optimize cost, and support grid reliability. Our edge product, SynopLink, manages energy assets on-site — even through connectivity outages — and coordinates local devices to comprehensively manage power at customer sites. SynopLink's fleet is growing fast, and we're looking for the engineer who will lead it through its next order of magnitude: someone with the technical depth to operate a large, distributed fleet of devices managing energy systems around the world, and the product sense to decide what we build so customers onboard quickly, issues get resolved fast, and the platform scales gracefully to hundreds and thousands of units.<h2>About You</h2><ul><li>You have:</li></ul><ul><li>5+ years of software engineering experience, including significant time on IoT, edge, or device-fleet products — and experience setting product direction for a platform, not just building against someone else's spec.</li><li>Experience operating a real device fleet in production: provisioning, OTA updates, remote diagnostics, observability, and the failure modes of hardware in the field.</li><li>Experience at small startups and with distributed teams.</li></ul><ul><li>You are:</li></ul><ul><li>An IC lead, operating beyond the classic senior-engineer scope: you own product direction and technical decisions, and you bring the team along with you.</li><li>Product-minded: you talk to customers and CS, find the friction, and decide what to build — then build it.</li><li>AI-forward – proficient in building with AI, meaning building &amp; improving the harness, documentation, systems, and AI agent skills to get large bodies of work built and validated autonomously.
