Kitchener, Ontario, CA (On-site)1 open job
e-STORAGE designs and deploys utility-scale lithium-iron phosphate battery energy storage systems, operating across North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and South America.
e-STORAGE designs, builds, and integrates utility-scale battery energy storage systems based on proprietary lithium-iron phosphate (LFP) technology called SolBank. The company has deployed over 7 GWh of battery storage across the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, and China, with operations extending to Japan, Australia, Chile, and Spain. Headquartered in Kitchener, Ontario, the company operates at the intersection of renewable energy infrastructure and grid-scale power management.
For cybersecurity professionals, the threat surface here is physical and digital simultaneously. These are industrial control systems governing high-voltage energy infrastructure spread across multiple continents - SCADA networks, battery management systems (BMS), and grid interconnection interfaces that must be defended against disruption, unauthorized access, and data exfiltration. The operational technology (OT) environment involves real-time monitoring of battery performance, thermal management, and grid compliance protocols, all of which require segmented network architectures and strict access controls.
The tech stack spans embedded firmware on battery racks, cloud-based fleet management platforms, and compliance interfaces with utility operators and grid authorities in different regulatory jurisdictions. Securing this means working across IT/OT convergence boundaries, hardening communications between distributed assets and central control, and managing the lifecycle of cryptographic identities on devices deployed in the field for years. The company's commitment to sustainable practices and workforce diversity signals an operational culture, but the real work happens at the protocol level - where energy storage meets critical infrastructure security.
