Itron is innovating new ways for utilities and cities to manage energy and water. Itron Resiliency Solutions is an innovative business unit within Itron focused on solving mission critical problems for utilities through software and AI. These software and AI solutions solve end-to-end challenges for the utilities that power our society and are used by the largest and most complex organizations in the world such as National Grid, Southern Company, and Exelon.
The Emergency Preparedness & Response (EP&R;) team builds the systems that keep critical operations running when it matters most. When storms and severe weather threaten communities and infrastructure across the US, our platform enables customers to rapidly procure, mobilize, and manage the workforce needed to respond to and recover from storm damage — often under tight timelines and high-stakes conditions. We are looking for a Principal Engineer who is deeply hands-on, works backward from customer pain points and business needs, and measures success by impact rather than lines of code shipped. You will be the technical anchor of the team: a backend-heavy full-stack engineer who knows our systems inside and out, reasons rigorously about trade-offs, and raises the engineering bar for everyone around you while leading the team toward outcomes that genuinely matter.
We're hiring a Software Engineer in Bengaluru to build and run production services. You'll own features end to end — from understanding the problem to shipping, monitoring and fixing what you built — with growing independence and support from senior engineers.
Our India engineering team is taking full ownership of core products and growing quickly, including a ground-up rebuild of a customer-critical service. Own: Own features and services end to end with speed and quality — build, test, release, monitor, fix.
Quality. Write tests, add observability, and take part in on-call so issues are caught before customers see them.
Understand who uses what you build, and learn from support issues what to fix next.
Give and receive thoughtful reviews, and help onboard engineers who join after you.
Experience: 1–4 years building production software. You've shipped code that runs in production. Given a clear goal, you figure out the steps, unblock yourself, and ask for help at the right moments.
We care how you engineer more than which language you did it in.
You've built production software with a modern stack, such as:
Cloud: hands-on with AWS — you've deployed and debugged services running on it.
Languages: strong in at least one contemporary language such as Python, Java or JavaScript/TypeScript.
Frameworks: modern service frameworks such as FastAPI, Node.js or equivalents.
Databases: solid data modeling and query fundamentals — you can design a schema, use indexes well, and explain why a query is slow and how you'd fix it.
Fundamentals: data structures,
API design, and the basics of caching and concurrency.
Strong experience on an equivalent stack is welcome.
You can say what changed because of something you built — for users, performance or reliability.
A bug, a performance issue or a design where you dug past the surface to understand why.
You've fixed what you shipped when it broke, and improved it after release without being asked.
You care who uses what you build and whether it actually helped them.
Not the word on a resume — the evidence: a side project, a technology you went deep on, something you built because you wanted to.
Itron is committed to building an inclusive and diverse workforce and providing an authentic workplace experience for all employees. If you are excited about this role but your past experiences don't perfectly align with every requirement, we encourage you to apply anyway. The successful candidate's starting wage will be determined based on permissible, non-discriminatory factors such as skills and experience.
