We're building teams of people from different backgrounds, industries, and disciplines — united by a belief that energy management should be simple, intelligent, and a genuine driver of business value. What we’re looking for: We are seeking a Staff Site Reliability Engineer (L4) to join our SRE/Platform Engineering team in India. This is a senior technical leadership role — not people management, but engineering leadership through execution, mentorship, and architectural ownership. Our India SRE team is growing, and this role is central to that growth. As we scale, we need a technical anchor in the India timezone who can independently own multi-week SRE projects from problem statement to production, make sound architectural decisions under ambiguity, and elevate the team around them. You will be the person engineers lean on for design reviews, debugging escalations, and “how should we approach this?” conversations. You’ll bring the depth and experience to drive execution autonomously in the India timezone while collaborating closely with US-based SRE leadership on roadmap priorities, incident response, and platform strategy. This is a role for someone who doesn’t wait for direction — you identify reliability gaps, propose solutions, build consensus, and ship.
