Senior Cloud Software Engineer

Redwood City, CA

Mid-level +1 · Full time

Posted 5 months ago

Our mission is to move humanity off of fossil fuel heating. 20% of US global warming emissions come from homes (that's more than cars!). The largest driver of home emissions is burning fossil fuels for heat. To stop climate change, over 80M US homes need to transition from combustion to efficient, electric heat pumps over the coming decades.

We believe for this to happen the world needs fantastic products that are easy and desirable to purchase. Today's heat pumps lack great design, make limited use of software, and are difficult and stressful to adopt. We are building a next generation, beautifully designed, AI optimized home heating and cooling system that is 10x better than what is on the market today.

Role

Quilt is looking for a mission-driven software engineer to help architect and develop our cloud services. You will join a super collaborative and talented software team delivering a robust software system to support our first heat pump product and many more products in the future.

Qualifications

Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or equivalent experience.
Minimum 4 years (but more very welcome!) full-time work experience in a high caliber engineering environment post-graduation.
Expertise in at least one mainstream server side language such as C++, Java, Go, or Python.
Experience in developing distributed systems, micro-services and API design in the cloud.
Experience developing and scaling services on AWS.
Experience working with 0 to 1 new products and launches.
Genuine mission alignment around climate and decarbonization.
Familiarity with IoT technologies and cloud security is a real bonus.

Responsibilities

Design and develop scalable, robust, and secure cloud and backend systems.
Collaborate with cross-functional teams including product managers, hardware engineers, and data scientists to understand system requirements and translate them into technical specifications.
Design and implement embedded and backend components, ensuring high performance, reliability, and scalability.
Build APIs and services to enable seamless integration with different hardware components, mobile applications, and third-party systems.
Develop data models and design databases to efficiently store and retrieve system data.
Implement monitoring and logging systems to ensure the health and performance of the product and infrastructure.

This role can be done hybrid (minimum 3 days a week in-office in Redwood City) or full-time in person. We have a strong collaborative office culture, but also recognize that long commutes are tough. We can be flexible as needed.

The expected salary range is $160,000 - $190,000. In addition to base salary, Quilt also offers meaningful equity and top-tier benefits.

This is an opportunity to join a highly ambitious team of people who truly care about the impact of their work. We are on a mission to accelerate a species-level human transition. For over a million years we've been burning things to stay warm. It's time to move to a better way of living.

Quilt

We’re building a sleek and intelligent ductless heat pump system for the home. Quilt offers AI-driven efficiency and room-by-room control—all while leaving fossil fuels behind.
