Peak Energy   Job Title:   Manufacturing Software Engineer Location:   Burlingame, CA or Sacramento, CA Department: Manufacturing Engineering   Reports To: Software Engineering Manager Position Type:  Full-time     About Peak Energy   Peak Energy is the first American venture to advance globally proven Sodium-Ion battery systems as the storage standard for the new era of renewable energy on a resilient grid.   Sodium-Ion is cheap, readily available and safe, making it the leading contender in a rapidly evolving market.   Our leadership team is powered by decades of expertise in scaling gigawatt-level innovation at world-class companies such as Tesla, Northvolt, Apple, Powin, Enovix, Zipline, Solid Power, and Fluence. We are backed by strategic investment and product partners such as TDK Ventures and Eclipse Ventures.   We are a team of engineers, operators, entrepreneurs, and partners driven by a shared ambition to set the new performance standard for renewable energy and grid resilience.       About the Role - Manufacturing Software Engineer We're hiring a mid-level software engineer to build the distributed systems that connect our production equipment to MES and our enterprise stack. You'll work on the  SCADA /equipment-integration layer — acquiring data over OPC-UA and other industrial protocols, normalizing it, and delivering it reliably into MES under real-world floor conditions — as well as the microservices that integrate our ERP and PLM systems. This is a hands-on engineering role on a small team. You'll design and implement services, care about concurrency and performance, and stand behind your code on a live production floor. You'll work closely with senior engineers who own the broader architecture, contributing strong distributed-systems engineering to it.   What You'll Do (Responsibilities) Build Go services in a microservice architecture that acquire equipment data ( OPC-UA and other industrial protocols), normalize it, and publish it to MES and downstream consumers Engineer for high concurrency and high throughput — many stations and signals streaming simultaneously, with low-latency, backpressure-aware processing Build and maintain the ERP/ PLM integration microservices that sync work orders, BOMs, routings, part/revision data, and as-built/genealogy records between the floor and enterprise systems Build event-driven data pipelines feeding a cloud data lake for production and quality analytics Add observability — metrics, tracing, alerting — so service health and equipment connectivity are visible, not silent Contribute to internal tooling and dashboards that surface production and quality data   What You'll Bring (Qualifications) 2–3 years of professional software engineering experience building production backend / systems software Strong distributed systems fundamentals — concurrency, consistency models, idempotency, message delivery semantics, fault tolerance Experience designing and operating microservice architectures in production Proficiency in Go (or a strong systems-language background with demonstrated ability to ship in Go) Comfortable engineering for high concurrency and high performance — profiling, contention, throughput/latency trade-offs Hands-on manufacturing / shop floor software experience — you've worked on or adjacent to production lines ERP and/or PLM background — you've integrated with systems like SAP, Oracle, NetSuite, Dynamics, Teamcenter, Windchill, Arena, etc. Working knowledge of SCADA / MES concepts and industrial communication, especially OPC-UA (Modbus, MQTT , PLC interfaces a plus) Self-directed, communicative, and effectiv
