Senior Software Engineer - Australia

Roles & Responsibilities

  • Senior software engineer with experience designing and implementing features in large-scale engineering platforms.
  • Proficiency in machine learning and algorithms for digital twin extraction and data processing.
  • Experience with API design and data abstractions to enable semantic modelling of organisational data.
  • Experience with CAD-like tooling or integration of CAD/engineering designs, lidar, and imagery for simulations.

Requirements:

  • Digitisation: Develop and measure algorithmic/ML improvements for digital twin extraction and create tooling to fix issues from automated solutions.
  • Digitisation: Improve monitoring to identify when digital twin extraction is performing poorly (e.g., distribution drift, misconfiguration).
  • Platform: Develop internal platform functionality by identifying common abstractions that apply to multiple use cases and support semantic data modelling.
  • Design: Create solutions to simulate structural forces on the network under various weather scenarios and develop CAD-like tooling to import designs for better simulations.

Job description

Imagine having the power to stress-test an entire power grid against a hurricane before the clouds even gather. That is the reality we are creating at Neara.

We use advanced machine learning to create engineering-grade, physics enabled digital twins of electricity grids across four continents, this helps asset owners understand their biggest challenges and bring the most viable solutions to life across millions of kilometres of infrastructure.

By simulating extreme weather and structural stress at a network-wide scale, we empower the world’s largest utilities to pinpoint risks, optimise investments and build a more resilient global energy future.

Our team is a collection of brilliant minds who are fanatical about making a tangible difference in the real world, utilising AI and machine learning to accelerate everything from data classification to complex scenario analysis. We have built a special culture where innovation thrives because everyone owns the mission and we need smart, creative people to help us scale this impact to every corner of the globe.

ABOUT THE ROLE

As a Senior Software Engineer, you will be designing and implementing features in one of our engineering groups: 

  • Digitisation: generate digital twins from various data sources using a mix of machine learning, algorithms and work on tooling to correct bad extractions as fast as possible.

  • Platform: provide the API surface for organisations to extract the most value out of the data hosted on the Neara platform. Work on our internal expression language and work with customers and other teams to identify the abstractions we need to provide.

  • Design: take digital twins (or prospective designs) and analyse the viability of designs, from load analysis on infrastructure to identifying the resilience of the electric network to extreme weather events. 

WHAT YOU WILL DO

Digitisation

  • Develop and measure algorithmic/ML improvements to digital twin extraction.

  • Improve monitoring to identify when our systems do a bad job of digital twin extraction (for example, distribution drift, misconfiguration).

  • Develop tooling to quickly fix problems created by automated solutions.

Platform

  • Develop the functionality of our internal platform by identifying common abstractions that can apply to many unique use cases.

  • Data abstractions that allow users to semantically model and interact with their organisation's data.

Design

  • Develop solutions that provide designers the ability to simulate the structural forces on the network and the behaviour of the network in various weather scenarios.

  • Develop CAD-like tooling to import engineering designs to develop networks or work with Digitisation to fit lidar and imagery to engineering designs in order to achieve better simulations.

WHAT WE OFFER

  • Competitive salary & meaningful ESOP

  • Fully flexible working arrangements with a well-stocked office in Redfern

  • Regular office events

  • The real benefit is working on a genuinely complex, innovative and industry-leading product, making a genuine difference in the world around us.
