Great people make Schneider Electric a great company.

What do you get to do in this position?

Help us expand our predictive and analytic offering for real-time equipment monitoring, including supervised and unsupervised anomaly detection and prognostics. You will be directly responsible for working with the engineering team to add new algorithms to the system and expanding on general purpose analytics tools to support engineers in their analysis.

We provide a real-world solution and we care about our customers...

We develop predictive analytics software for equipment monitoring that is used in some of the world's largest power companies. Our software uses machine learning to detect unusual changes in equipment behavior, which provides engineers and operators with early warning information allowing them to correct issues before they lead to failures. Our customers use our software every day in very practical ways and we are committed to providing them software that helps meet their expanding needs and expectations. Our customers report that their small teams are able to save millions of dollars annually by detecting and analyzing conditions that would have led to machine failures which would not have been detected with other systems.

We are a small, focused team following agile…

We follow the SAFe agile process, with a two-week sprint. We have daily stand ups to keep everyone in synch, identify blocking issues, and focus on priority work. During the sprint we work closely with business stakeholders and customer support to plan ahead and prioritize stories for the next sprint. We demo at the end of every sprint and follow it with a retrospective. We're pragmatic, not dogmatic; we build continuous improvement into our process and make adjustments from the retrospectives based on what's working for the team and what needs improvement.

We want you to innovate with us...

Our software is written is a combination of C#, HTML 5, JavaScript. We also use some Adobe Flex, which we are migrating away from. We are continuously adding new features, improving on user experience, and refactoring and improving our code base. We have a collaborative design environment, and we are always looking for innovative approaches to problem solving, design, and visualization.

We're focused on practical features and quality...

We work regularly with users and stakeholders to review and prioritize features. As part of the development team you'll work with the product owners and other developers to understand the core issues and make recommendations to generalize solutions for our wider customer base. Our QA process a directly integrated part of our development team; as a developer you will work directly with QA to help them understand how to effectively test features. All members of our team also support our constantly expanding automated test coverage so that we can refactor and adapt our code base quickly and with confidence that the end result passes all regression, system, and unit tests.
