I have a Pentair LED pool light connected to a GE smart switch inside our house. Whenever the pool pump is running the light/smart switch stay powered and operate normally. However, if the pool pump isn't on, the GE smart switch and thus the LED pool light blink on and off every 10 seconds or so.

As far as I can tell, everything looks to be wired normally in the pool's breaker box. Any ideas why/how the pool pump (it's energy drawl?) could be impacting the LED light?
 
What model pool pump?

Your pool pump on a GFCI CB?

What model GE Smart Switch?

Is there a GFCI for your pool light?

The electrical wiring around the LED light, smart switch, and pump need to be examined to understand what is going on.
