Senior Software Engineer – Distributed Systems & Data Analytics
About the role
About The Company At Corinex, we are driving the future of energy with cutting-edge Broadband over Power Line (BPL) technology. As a global leader in smart grid solutions, we enable utilities to enhance grid visibility, flexibility, and decarbonization, supporting the seamless integration of renewable energy, electric vehicles, and heat pumps into the power grid.
Headquartered in Vancouver, Canada, Corinex is the market leader in Europe, particularly in Spain, where our BPL solutions are deployed by major DSOs (Distribution System Operators) to improve grid operations. With successful implementations across global markets, our technologies accelerate the transition to a more sustainable, decentralized, and efficient energy infrastructure. Recognized as a key contributor to industry standards and a 2024 Deloitte Technology Fast 50 winner, Corinex is shaping the future of smart energy.
About The Job We are seeking an experienced Senior Backend Software Engineer to lead the development of high-performance, data-intensive applications that power our real-time and batch analytics platforms. In this role, you will design and optimize backend services, architect big data processing pipelines, and ensure seamless integration with frontend systems. You will collaborate closely with cross-functional teams, mentor junior engineers, and help shape best practices to drive system performance, scalability, and reliability. This is an opportunity to work on cutting-edge solutions in a fast-paced environment while making a significant impact on our data-driven products.
Duties & Responsibilities
- Design, develop, and optimize microservices in Java (Spring Boot) for high-volume, data-intensive applications.
- Architect and implement real-time analytics and batch processing solutions using stream processing frameworks (e.g., Apache Flink or Apache Spark).
- Build and maintain data pipelines (including ETL/ELT workflows) and integrate them into distributed environments.
- Design and optimize data storage and query layers across columnar and relational databases (e.g., ClickHouse, PostgreSQL).
- Collaborate with DevOps teams to deploy and monitor cloud-native solutions (AWS, GCP, or Azure).
- Implement and maintain APIs and integration layers for dashboards, monitoring tools, and external systems.
- Ensure system scalability, reliability, and performance through continuous tuning and automation.
- Mentor junior engineers and contribute to engineering best practices.
Qualifications
- 7+ years of professional software engineering experience.
- Strong expertise in Java, Spring Boot, and microservices architecture.
- Proven experience with distributed stream and batch processing (Apache Flink or Apache Spark).
- Hands-on experience with modern databases (columnar, relational, and NoSQL) — exposure to ClickHouse and PostgreSQL is a plus.
- Background in real-time analytics, ETL pipelines, and distributed data platforms.
- Experience with messaging/streaming systems (e.g., Kafka).
- Solid understanding of cloud-native deployments (AWS, GCP, or Azure).
- Familiarity with Python or Scala for data processing and automation is a plus.
- Nice to have: experience with secure data transport (TLS) and troubleshooting distributed communication.
About Corinex
Corinex is a leading provider of BPL-based grid flexibility solutions, enabling the digitalization of the distribution system where energy consumers connect. Our solutions maintain network capacities and steer low-carbon technologies (LCTs) to consume local generation.
Our grid asset management solution utilizes existing grid infrastructure and enables edge computing, high-speed transmission, real-time grid performance data, device management, and security at the edge of the grid.
Our broadband end-to-end solution, integrates distributed energy devices and enables real-time energy data, analytics and predictive models, with the highest level of security.
