The climate crisis is the defining challenge of our time—but it’s also the greatest opportunity for innovation, and a challenge we’re proud to take on. At Overstory, we’re harnessing cutting-edge technology to enable a resilient electrical grid that keeps communities thriving as our world changes.
The grid is the backbone of life as we know it. It powers hospitals, keeps food fresh, and ensures communities stay connected. But extreme weather, aging infrastructure, and growing wildfire risks are putting this critical system under pressure. All of this combined makes the electric utility industry the greatest opportunity for tackling climate change.
One of the leading causes of catastrophic wildfires and power outages? Trees and brush coming into contact with power lines.
That’s where we help. At Overstory, we use AI and advanced satellite imagery to pinpoint and prioritize vegetation risks before they materialize. By giving utilities critical analysis on those risks, we’re helping prevent outages, reduce wildfire risks, and accelerate the transition to a safer, more resilient grid.
Our team spans the Americas and Europe, and we work with utility partners across the Americas and beyond. We’re outdoor enthusiasts, musicians, artists, athletes, parents, and adventurers. What unites us is a passion for solving complex problems, a commitment to climate action, and the belief that technology should be a force for good.
Join us to help us build a more resilient world together.
As a Staff Data Engineer at Overstory, you will lead the design and scaling of the data platform that enables Overstory’s AI-powered vegetation analysis. Our analysis depends on moving enormous volumes of satellite imagery, model inferences, and utility network data through orchestrated pipelines reliably, repeatably, and on time to support customer decision-making. You'll own the architecture of that platform and set the direction for how it evolves.
You'll work closely with data, ML, and product engineers, as well as product teams, to make sure the data flowing into our models and out to our customers balances pragmatic delivery with durability, traceability, and scalability. As a senior technical leader, you'll mentor other engineers, drive architectural decisions, and set standards for pipeline design, service boundaries, and data quality across Overstory.
