Senior Front End Developer

About Us
Over the next couple of decades, our electricity grids will undergo the largest transition since their inception in the late 1800s. Solar is now the cheapest form of electricity, but it’s intermittent. A modern electric vehicle can effectively double the electricity draw of a normal home, completely upending the way utilities plan for, build out, and operate the grid. If left unmanaged, these ‘behind-the-meter’ distributed energy resources (BTM DERs) can cause very real problems upstream.
Rhythmos is developing a Big Data analytics platform to help the industry understand and manage the challenges of BTM DERs. It’s a multidisciplinary pursuit, and we are building a multidisciplinary team that seamlessly blends the world of software and advanced analytics (AI/ML, optimization, grid analytics) with energy and power systems to give the industry the tools they need to pragmatically solve the problems that matter as we decarbonize the grid and electrify transport.
About You:
The Senior Frontend Developer is responsible for the development, maintenance, and advancement of the Rhythmos’ front-end platform. As a contributor in a startup environment, you bring both deep expertise in modern web applications, as well as a pragmatic ‘toolbox’ mentality to solve the problem at hand and move the business forward in incremental and systematic steps. You leverage broad software development skills to effectively bridge the gap between product and customer requirements on the one end with the world of data science, and the back-end framework on the other.
About Our Stack
Our frontend is entirely client-side, served via a Node/Nginx host on GCP Kubernetes. We use GitHub both for source control and for CI/CD. On the client side, we currently employ Svelte, Framework7, Vite, Mapbox & Leaflet, Sentry, AG-Grid, and Highcharts.
Responsibilities
You will work with product, data science, and other engineers to develop and deploy end-to-end product functionality in a modern data analytics platform with a focus on front-end. The underlying analytics are computationally intensive and asynchronous, and you will spearhead user-centric efforts to ensure that our customers get just the right amount of information at the right time by delivering a simple and attractive UI that embraces “on-demand complexity” design principles.
You will:
