Gridware exists to enhance and protect the mother of all networks: the electrical grid. The grid touches everything, and when it grinds to a halt the consequences can be dire: wildfires burn, land is destroyed, property is damaged, progress stops, and lives are lost.
Our team engineers an advanced sensing system to continuously analyze both the electrical and mechanical behavior of grid assets. Utilizing high precision sensor arrays, the system identifies and allows preemptive mitigation of faults. Our technology has been proven with utilities to bolster safety, reliability, and reduce customer outage durations. The demand for power will only increase. We protect the grid of today while we build the grid of tomorrow.
Gridware is privately held and backed by the best climate-tech and Silicon Valley investors. We are headquartered in San Francisco, CA.
Team Overview
The Hardware Engineering team is responsible for designing and testing all of our devices, from mechanicals and electronics to the firmware and protocols they run. Our devices save lives, but doing this means supporting a diverse set of continuously-sampling sensors and we need tens of thousands of units to run super-reliably for 10 years in extremely challenging environments, ranging from snowy mountaintops to forests and deserts. Role Description
The Firmware QA Engineer will, as a starting point, be responsible for the following: Develop and maintain automated test scripts and frameworks for firmware testing, covering static analysis, unit, integration, system, and regression testing. Measure and increase test coverage over time, making sure to emulate edge cases and failure scenarios. With assistance from other teams, design and maintain automated hardware-in-the-loop test hardware to support regression testing. This will include everything from verifying wireless network functionality to testing sensor behavior. Identify, document, and track firmware bugs, collaborating with the firmware engineering team to troubleshoot and resolve issues. Monitor and analyze test results, creating detailed test reports and quality metrics to ensure continuous improvement in firmware quality.
