Software Engineer - Infrastructure

Data centers should be valuable assets to their customers, the grid, and the local community such that we are able to give customers what they want, where they want it, while cities and utilities are actively seeking us to build in their region.

The full job description covers all associated skills, previous experience, and any qualifications that applicants are expected to have.

Verrus will build and operate next generation data centers that flexibly leverage its onsite infrastructure through the development of proprietary technology. Doing so will allow Verrus to provide grid services that facilitate the effective procurement of power and carbon free energy, and balance traditional and variable uptime workloads (e.g., AI / ML).

Verrus is led by industry veterans with experience at the largest data center development companies, delivering over 3 GW of data center capacity across four continents in their careers (representing over $10bn of investment).

Role

Verrus takes a very technology-forward approach to designing data center infrastructure - we operate at the intersection of leading-edge electrical and mechanical engineering, control systems, and software engineering. As a result, software development at Verrus spans a broad space, including integration with physical infrastructure, backend, frontend engineering, and optimization.

As a software engineer at Verrus, your core responsibility will be to use analysis and critical thinking to design and build a high-quality, secure, and scalable software infrastructure layer – including Verrus’ compute, storage, and networking systems deployed on-premises at our datacenter locations and in the cloud.

You will work closely with several teams at Verrus, the mechanical and electrical engineering functions to integrate physical infrastructure into our software platform, controls engineering for the orchestration of power flows at the datacenter level and the optimization function to help implement Verrus’ optimal dispatch algorithms.

Responsibilities

• Help design, build, and manage Verrus’ multi-layered software infrastructure stack. This will comprise two distinct components : a distributed system homed in the public cloud, and another deployed on-premises at Verrus’ data center locations.
• Design and build high-performant, testable APIs for interfacing with physical infrastructure (including power and building management systems) and with Verrus’ and third-party applications.
• Work may include DevOps-centric tasks, including setting up build environments, deployment pipelines, and Verrus’ cluster environments.
• Work with the product development organization to plan Verrus’ technology roadmap and help shape the future of Verrus’ infrastructure software systems.
• Collaborate cross-functionally with various engineering and product functions, including electrical and mechanical engineering, optimization, and product management.
