Senior Full-Stack Software Engineer — Solar Design Tools
Revamp Engineering is seeking a Senior Full-Stack Software Engineer to design and build internal software tools that power utility-scale solar project design. You will own the architecture and develop applications from the ground up alongside a small internal team. This includes the UI that engineers interact with daily, the file pipeline that produces AutoCAD-ready deliverables, and the integration layer that ties it all together. This is a greenfield build with long-term product ambitions and a rare opportunity for a software engineer to make a direct, tangible impact on deploying utility-scale renewable energy and fighting climate change.
Role Summary
- Lead the technical architecture of a new internal design platform, making foundational decisions on tech stack, data models, and system design.
- Design and build a desktop or web-based UI for engineers to configure designs.
- Build tools that interface with AutoCAD and integrate various data formats.
- Collaborate with the product owner to translate design rules into software logic.
- Establish and enforce development practices, including version control, testing, and CI/CD.
- Implement optimization algorithms to refine designs.
- Review and finalize scopes, effort estimates, and delivery schedules.
- Serve as the primary technical point of contact for the internal product team.
- Assist management on software platform strategy and build-vs-buy decisions.
- Supervise, guide, and mentor assigned developers or contractors.
- Develop new techniques, processes, and reusable tooling for long-term architecture advancement.
