Full Job Description

About Gridsight

Electricity grids are undergoing the most significant transformation in a century. The shift to renewables, the proliferation of rooftop solar, batteries, and EVs, and the increasing complexity of distribution networks are forcing utilities to operate their grids in fundamentally new ways.

Gridsight builds the analytics platform that makes this possible. We're already embedded with most of Australia's major distribution networks and have contracts with some of the largest investor-owned utilities in the United States. We're well-funded, growing quickly, and positioned at the centre of a global shift toward dynamic grid management.

The Role

We're hiring a Team Lead to lead one of our emerging product engineering squads. For candidates with relevant experience and interest, this role can immediately incorporate people management responsibilities.

As the team lead you'll be accountable for your squad's architectural decisions and delivery outcomes, working closely with Data Science, Product and Design to translate requirements into well-scoped technical work. You'll stay deeply hands-on - unblocking team members through code review, technical guidance, and direct contribution. And you'll mentor engineers in your squad, helping them grow their technical judgment and skills.

You will be accountable for how your squad builds: the architecture, the standards, the quality. You'll make decisions that balance immediate delivery and commercial objectives with long-term system health, and coordinate with other Tech Leads to ensure consistency across the platform. If you have the background, you’ll also take up people management responsibilities for some of the engineers, supporting their growth and development.

We're building toward a layered vision of grid analytics, optimisation engines, and agentic workflows. You'll be responsible for leading a team that delivers key parts of it.

What You'll Do

Own technical direction for your squad, facilitating architectural decisions and ensuring alignment with platform strategy
Drive delivery outcomes, ensuring your squad ships high-quality work on cadence while managing technical risk
Establish and maintain engineering standards: code quality, testing practices, documentation
Unblock team members through hands-on contribution, code review, and technical guidance
Collaborate with Product and Design to translate requirements into well-scoped technical work
Identify and address technical debt, balancing short-term delivery with long-term system health
Mentor engineers in your squad, fostering technical growth and sound engineering judgment
Contribute to engineering-wide technical strategy and architectural decisions

Management Responsibilities (Optional)

Manage and develop engineers, including hiring, performance management, career development, and day-to-day support

What You'll Bring

5+ years of software engineering experience, with demonstrated technical capabilities at Staff level or equivalent
Full stack range, comfortable designing backends and shipping polished, responsive frontends
Strong system design and architecture, with the judgment to make trade-offs between shipping now and building for the long term
Track record of leading squads or teams to successful delivery outcomes
Comfortable using agentic coding tools (Claude Code, Cursor and similar) to work faster and more effectively
Solid experience with cloud infrastructure (AWS, GCP, or Azure) and modern deployment practices
Ability to context-switch between hands-on contribution and higher-level technical leadership
Strong collaboration skills, with experience working closely with Product and cross-functional stakeholders

What Would Set You Apart

Demonstrated product sense, with the judgment to push back on scope and shape direction
Experience in energy, utilities, or grid technology
Data platform or analytics product experience
People management skills and expertise
Experience scaling systems and teams in high-growth environments
MLOps or data engineering depth

What We Offer

Generous compensation and equity
Remote-first, with head office in Sydney
A talented team of engineers, data scientists, and power systems specialists working on hard problems that matter
An intentionally collaborative culture of signal sharing and sensemaking
