Staff Software Engineer

We are seeking an exceptional Staff Software Engineer with deep backend expertise and an aptitude for technical leadership to help evolve the Torus platform. This is a high-impact role for someone in the top 10% of engineering talent who blends hands-on development with strategic influence—designing and implementing robust, scalable systems that power our hardware-software integration, customer-facing applications, and internal tools. You'll shape the technical direction of systems that integrate hardware, firmware, cloud infrastructure, and intelligent automation. Working across the full software lifecycle—from R&D to production operations—you'll partner closely with our Lead Architect and cross-functional teams (Product, Design, Firmware, Data Science, Business, Manufacturing) to deliver solutions that power our renewable energy platform. You'll also interface directly with stakeholders and customers to drive real-world impact and innovation. This role requires someone who can identify technical gaps, champion best practices in cloud-native serverless development, influence technical direction across teams, and take complete ownership of complex initiatives from conception through long-term maintenance. You'll work at the intersection of distributed systems, cloud-native development, IoT orchestration, and emerging AI capabilities.
