Senior / Staff Software Engineer, Cloud & Real Time Infrastructure

<div class="content-intro"><p>Antora Energy delivers affordable, reliable energy to industry, data centers, and the grid. Our thermal batteries turn low-cost electricity into always-on heat and power, without supply-constrained critical minerals or multi-year construction timelines.</p> <p>We are growing our company with people who put team and mission first, value connection through laughter and joy, and work with humility and openness. We are committed to building a diverse, passionate, and creative team dedicated to a future powered by abundant, clean, low-cost energy.</p></div><h5> </h5> <h5> </h5> <h5><strong>About The Role</strong></h5> <p> </p> <p>Antora Energy is seeking an engineer to own the real-time cloud infrastructure connecting our software systems to physical hardware.</p> <p class="isSelectedEnd">Every five minutes, our software determines how our thermal batteries should charge and discharge. Those decisions must travel reliably through our messaging infrastructure and reach physical assets in the field. In the other direction, plant telemetry flows from the edge into our cloud data warehouse, where it must be complete, timely, and trustworthy enough to support operational decisions and financial trading.</p> <p class="isSelectedEnd">You’ll also own the corporate cloud platform that the rest of the company builds on. While these systems have very different service-level requirements, they share a need for thoughtful architecture, strong operational practices, and reliable tooling.</p> <p>We’re hiring one person for a scope that many companies divide across multiple teams. This is a high-impact opportunity to establish platform-wide standards, unify observability, and shape our infrastructure and operational strategy from end to end.</p> <h5><strong><br><br>What You'll Do<br><br><br></strong></h5> <h6><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Own the Real-Time Telemetry and Dispatch Path</span><br><br></h6> <p class="isSelectedEnd">Own the full data path from the edge, through streaming ingestion, into the warehouse, and back out to asset dispatch.</p> <p class="isSelectedEnd">You’ll define service-level objectives, build freshness and gap detection, and ensure silent data loss becomes an actionable alert—not something discovered in a report a week later.</p> <h6><br><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Manage Our AWS Infrastructure as Code</span></h6> <p class="isSelectedEnd"><br>Own and evolve our AWS footprint across multiple accounts using Terraform.</p> <p class="isSelectedEnd">You’ll operate containerized services on ECS and Lambda and manage orchestration, networking, secrets, access controls, and supporting infrastructure. You’ll design systems with failure modes, blast radius, observability, capacity, and recovery in mind from the beginning.</p> <h6><br><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Advance an AI-First Software Development Lifecycle</span></h6> <p class="isSelectedEnd"><br>Our engineers already work alongside AI coding agents. The constraint is no longer how quickly code can be written—it is how quickly that code can be verified and deployed safely.</p> <p class="isSelectedEnd">You’ll build the systems that make agent-authored changes safe at scale, including fast and trustworthy CI, hermetic test infrastructure, preview environments, progressive delivery, and automated guardrails.</p> <p class="isSelectedEnd">You’ll also establish the cost controls and verification workflows that allow autonomous development systems to operate without requiring a person to supervise every step.</p> <
