Ownership of Backend Services: Develop and manage the backend services and infrastructure that underpin our web platform, which is critical for our utility clients to utilize the analytics derived from field data.

This role is ideal for someone eager to take control of systems from inception to execution and support a rapidly scaling platform. Customer Interaction: Engage directly with clients to enhance product understanding. Your close collaboration with major utilities will allow you to observe the tangible impact of your contributions as users interact with our product. Curiosity and Team Collaboration: Maintain a culture of curiosity, collaboration, and cross-functionality, while taking initiative to solve challenges that arise in our operations.

About the job

As the challenges of severe weather events, rising costs, and the need for system advancements continue to grow, Treeswift is at the forefront of empowering energy companies to modernize their operational capabilities.

Our innovative technology deploys sensors in customer field operations, often on backpacks or vehicles, capturing a wealth of LiDAR and imagery data. This data is analyzed using our AI models to provide actionable insights through our web platform. Our solutions have already helped utilities mitigate risks related to wildfires, regulatory compliance, and outages caused by vegetation, while also streamlining new construction processes and enhancing storm recovery efforts.

Since initiating our first utility pilot in June 2024, Treeswift has rapidly progressed, collaborating with three of the five largest utilities in the United States and expanding our reach into new customer segments.

We are assembling a team of mission-driven professionals with extensive expertise in robotics from prestigious institutions such as Penn, Caltech, and CMU, alongside experience in enterprise software from renowned companies like Palantir, Stripe, Oracle, and MongoDB. Our funding comes from leading investors, including Inspired Capital, founded by Penny Pritzker.

Headquartered in lower Manhattan, Treeswift also has an office in Philadelphia and customer-facing team members located near client sites, such as in the Bay Area. We actively encourage our software engineers to engage with customers on-site—ask us about this opportunity!

We invite you to join us on this impactful journey.
