Strobe : Software Engineer
Strobe - Software Engineer - Brooklyn, NYC - ONSITE - Full-time - $120k–$250k + equity
We’re building a distributed, software-defined power plant: buildings, batteries, EVs, and on-site generation buying and selling power in real time. Think cloud control plane + embedded hardware + energy markets.
Small, high-performing team. No layers. You’ll own systems end-to-end: design → deploy → on-call.
We’re looking for fungible generalists, not narrow specialists. Strong fit if you’re comfortable with:
- AWS-heavy backend work (Lambda, APIs, GraphQL, data pipelines)
- Operating real-time production systems
- Python / TypeScript (Rust a plus)
Depending on fit, you might work on:
- Telemetry & control over unreliable networks
- Embedded Linux / RTUs (Modbus, BACnet, DNP3)
- Market-facing systems and optimization
- Operator UIs with real-time streams (React)
Requirements:
- Strong production experience
- Systems mindset, bias to shipping
- Willing to be onsite 5 days/week at Newlab (Brooklyn Navy Yard)
- Not remote
Fast pace, direct feedback, real ownership. This is not a 9–5.
