Why does SPAN exist?
Founded by Tesla’s former head of energy, SPAN was founded because this is our Decade to Decarbonize.
About 40% of greenhouse gas emissions are controlled by things we do in our households, decisions we make as individuals. Most of us feel powerless about confronting climate change, but the things in our basements, garages, and on our roofs directly influence the largest single slice of the problem (source).
The answer is to electrify everything, which we do by:
What is SPAN doing?
We envision a future where our homes are
None of this is possible without a modern-day electric panel. So we started by completely reinventing this hundred year-old appliance.
If you want to learn more, watch (span.io/decadetodecarbonize) or read (span.io/plan) about the progress we have made, the products and services we have announced and how our partners are supporting us on our mission.
Why you should consider this role
SPAN is a critical node in a distributed energy ecosystem rich with opportunity. Our ecosystem partners include power utilities, solar installers, property developers, home improvement businesses and manufacturers of smart home devices, appliances and electric vehicles.
SPAN’s mission to electrify everything requires integration of control functionality into ecosystem platforms, tools and experiences. We will succeed if we enable our ecosystem to differentiate, simplify and scale their own offerings.
For this we are building the ‘internet of electricity’, which you can think of as a suite of cloud and local APIs, webhooks and services that requires device management, bi-directional communication and authenticated controls that function reliably for 3rd parties while maintaining harmony with the needs of the household. We believe that a general purpose platform of composable building blocks will accelerate the delivery of these products.
In this role you will champion the voice of various ecosystem partners to deliver a platform that can rapidly accelerate SPAN’s mission impact.
