Byterat (YC W23) is the modern cloud platform for battery data analytics in R&D and production. Byterat directly synchronizes data from lab hardware to the cloud and analyzes it to unlock hidden insights connecting design to performance.
We're a team of physicists, software engineers and computer scientists (with backgrounds from Cambridge, Carnegie Mellon, Rivian, AWS etc) united by a passion for helping battery engineers innovate and scale their technologies more quickly and joyfully.
OUR MISSION
- Batteries play a fundamental role in tackling climate change. $73B was invested in US battery plants in 2022, and battery company revenue is expected to grow >5x over the next decade.
- Global carmakers alone are forecast to spend $515B on electric vehicle and battery R&D by 2030. But battery engineers are currently underserved by software, relying on broken legacy products to analyze their data.
- Byterat solves this problem with a modern cloud platform that allows teams to analyze data from thousands of parallel experiments and unlock previously hidden insights connecting battery design to performance.
THE ROLE
- You will have the autonomy to design/implement cornerstones of the Byterat platform, spanning from backend infrastructure for data analysis, to statistical models to correlate battery design with performance.
- You'll also be helping to shape an exceptional engineering culture at Byterat and cultivate practices that will set us up for success.
WHO YOU ARE
- 1+ years software engineering experience, ideally in a “start-up” like environment where you have taken full ownership for projects and taken products from 0-1 and 1-10.
- You care about the problems our customers face and are excited to distil their insights into tangible product improvements.
- You are excited to move and grow fast, take ownership and challenge yourself in ways that are hard to replicate at other places.
OUR CURRENT TECH STACK
- Django with heavy tasks on Lambda.
- GraphQL Server Apollo Client
- React, Apollo Client, Redux in Typescript on Next.JS
- Docker compose for dev, AWS and Terraform for staging / prod.
- Event based processing and streaming ETLs
- Single Table and Relational Database Models
