InstaHub Looking for Full Stack Software Developer Intern at Philadelphia, PA Full Time

Full Stack Softawre Developer Intern

As a Software Developer Intern with InstaHub, you will gain valuable, real-world work experience and skills at a Forbes-featured, award-winning startup!

In joining us as a Software Developer Intern, you will gain experience working on InstaHub’s Logger Dashboard – a cloud-based platform designed to help customers track, analyze, and optimize their building operations to maximize energy savings while keeping the building(s) safe and comfortable.

About InstaHub

About 38% of global carbon emissions come from buildings, and 97% of buildings in the USA specifically consistently bleed unused energy.

At InstaHub, our goal is to create a greener future by creating automation technology that enhances, rather than replaces, existing building infrastructure. Many existing energy-saving solutions are overpriced and inaccessible, limiting their adoption in the facility management industry. We use easy-to-install, wireless devices to analyze waste from lighting and HVAC, and provide recommendations to reduce it. With the simplicity of our tools, your focus can be on impact rather than installation.

InstaHub invites and enables environmentally-conscious individuals—regardless of their age, income, or technical knowledge—to make simple, substantial changes in the buildings they use every day to reduce energy waste (and bills!).

We have deployed and will continue to deploy dataloggers (or ”loggers”) into multiple buildings, collecting 5 sensor data points per room (space utilization, temperature, humidity, pressure, and light) over time. Each building has multiple floors, rooms, room types, and users. Our objective is to provide an easy to read visualization of the logger data (Phase 1), automate pattern detection and segmentation (Phase 2), and automate the recommendation of alerts (Phase 3) to help building managers make evidence-based decisions in energy saving projects, ultimately tackling the ~40% of global carbon emissions that buildings currently contribute to climate change.
