Runwise is looking for a Support Engineer to join one of the fastest-growing energy tech companies in the US. Runwise has offices in New York and Boston but is a remote-first product and engineering company, and has been since its creation.

Runwise (www.runwise.com) is a fast-paced, customer-focused climate-tech startup that controls and runs the key energy systems (heating, water, etc…) in 7500+ buildings throughout the US. Runwise’s unique hardware and software service significantly reduces energy usage, substantially lowering costs and carbon output. As of today, Runwise’s technology takes the equivalent of 80,000 cars worth of carbon emissions off the road each year.

Responsibilities will include, but are not limited to:

  • Analyze software-generated logs, cross-reference with observed issues, and develop solutions to resolve problems
  • Review code that produces logs to understand both its intended functionality and points of failure
  • Maintain clear written and spoken communication until the issue is fully resolved
  • Prioritize incoming support requests effectively
  • Collaborate with software and hardware engineers as needed to clarify questions
  • Manage tools for efficient log analysis and data extraction
  • Track and categorize support issues to recommend long-term solutions for software and hardware teams
