Additional details
- About Gridware Gridware is a San Francisco-based technology company dedicated to protecting and enhancing the electrical grid.
- We pioneered a groundbreaking new class of grid management called active grid response (AGR), focused on monitoring the electrical, physical, and environmental aspects of the grid that affect reliability and safety.
- This comprehensive approach helps improve safety, reduce outages, and ensure the grid operates efficiently.
- The company is backed by climate-tech and Silicon Valley investors.
- You will be the team’s subject matter expert on the mechanics of structures, and your work will directly shape how we measure, validate, and improve our physics-based measurement systems.
- You will develop performant measurement algorithms, lead sensitivity analyses that quantify how physical assumptions and algorithm inputs propagate into measurement error and run field validation studies.
- You will bridge the gap between structural mechanics theory and deployed sensing products.
- This position focuses on mechanics modeling, algorithm design, validation study design, and technical leadership rather than fleet-scale data operations or software implementation.
