About the role
Tech Lead Tech Lead About Gridsight Electricity grids are undergoing the most significant transformation in a century. The shift to renewables, the proliferation of rooftop solar, batteries, and EVs, and the increasing complexity of distribution networks are forcing utilities to operate their grids in fundamentally new ways. Gridsight builds the analytics platform that makes this possible. We're already embedded with most of Australia's major distribution networks and have contracts with some of the largest investor-owned utilities in the United States. We're well-funded, growing quickly, and positioned at the centre of a global shift toward dynamic grid management.
The Role We're hiring a Team Lead to lead one of our emerging product engineering squads. For candidates with relevant experience and interest, this role can immediately incorporate people management
responsibilities. As
the team lead you'll be accountable for your squad's architectural decisions and delivery outcomes, working closely with Data Science, Product and Design to translate
requirements into well-scoped technical work. You'll stay deeply hands-on - unblocking team members through code review, technical guidance, and direct contribution. And you'll mentor engineers in your squad, helping them grow their technical judgment and skills. You will be accountable for how your squad builds: the architecture, the standards, the quality. You'll make decisions that balance immediate delivery and commercial objectives with long-term system health, and coordinate with other Tech Leads to ensure consistency across the platform. If you have the background, you’ll also take up people management
responsibilities for some of the engineers, supporting their growth and development. We're building toward a layered vision of grid analytics, optimisation engines, and agentic workflows. You'll be responsible for leading a team that delivers key parts of it.
