Job Description

FlexGen makes software that makes a difference in the world. With HybridOS our customers can put more battery storage on to the grid quicker and easier and then keep it running effectively. Traditional energy management systems are often custom developed from the ground up each time a customer builds a project. FlexGen applies modern technologies and product development principles to deliver software that gets the job done, is easy to learn and a joy to use.

Energy storage represents a multibillion-dollar market at the center of the energy transition. The integration of energy storage requires software and technological solutions that play a critical role in the adoption of renewables at scale—offsetting the intermittency and reliability challenges that renewable power generation creates for the grid. Since its founding in 2009, FlexGen has supported deployments of more than 1.2 GWh of energy storage systems across the U.S. and internationally for utility, microgrid, and C&I customers. The Company’s proprietary software platform allows energy storage owners to deploy various power market strategies and combine storage solutions with any form of generation. FlexGen is dedicated to providing best-in-class service and performance for its customers, seeking to ensure safety, reliability, and resiliency in all operating environments.

FlexGen supports the customer across the full journey of developing an energy storage project, and leverages decades of engineering and software expertise to maximize the value that its customers ultimately receive. The company’s HybridOS solutions include six distinct energy management solution applications including Digital Twin, Flex Pack, Site Controller, Fleet Manager, Power Cloud, and FlexBid.

Backed by a world-class group of investors including founding investors Jerry Miller and Mark Dreyfus, legacy investors GE Venture and Caterpillar Ventures, an initial equity investment by venture capital firm Altria Group, a Series B led by Apollo Global Management, and a Series C led by Swiss investment firm Vitol with participation from all existing investors, FlexGen is poised to grow substantially and quite rapidly.

Major Job Responsibilities:

  • Experience and knowledge of Javascript, typescript and Node.js
  • Front end and backend frameworks such as React, Express, Nest and Next
  • SSO technologies including OAuth and SAML
  • Database interfaces and creating internal and external APIs
  • Linux environments and Docker
