The Client Connections team sits at the interface between EnergyHub's and our utility clients' software systems. Through our Platform API, we facilitate the ongoing, automated interchange of information with our clients, enabling scalability and valuable product opportunities in the process.
As a senior software engineer, you would join a relatively new and growing team with the opportunity to own parts of and contribute to highly visible projects with significant client impact.

- Collaborate with other teams to both enable new features in our API and help them build on top of the data we make available from utility clients.
- Write and maintain technical documentation.
- Other duties as assigned.
Required Skills and Experience: What you need- 5+ years professional software engineering experience.
- Experience with the Java/Spring ecosystem.
- Expertise in RESTful web APIs, especially ones targeting external clients.
- Strong software design skills.
- Familiarity with relational database fundamentals (We mostly use PostgreSQL).
- Knowledge of modern security best practices, authentication/authorization frameworks, and system/API hardening.
- Knowledge of typical development best practices and tools for automated testing, continuous integration/deployment, and monitoring systems (i.e. Github Actions, DataDog, Sentry, Metaplane, etc).
- The ability to work both autonomously and collaboratively as befits the situation.
Preferred Skills and Experience: Nice-to-haves- Experience with AWS or other cloud providers.
