About the Role

This is a founding-stage full-stack engineering role at an early-stage energy software startup, where you will own the core product that drives real-time optimization and forecasting for industrial battery storage systems. You will have a direct and significant impact on both the product and the trajectory of the company.

What You'll Do

  • Build and own backend services and optimization algorithms to process energy asset data in real time.

  • Develop frontend dashboards that allow battery operators to monitor and control assets.

  • Design and scale cloud infrastructure to support thousands of battery systems.

  • Deploy production-ready optimizations and iterate based on real-world feedback.

  • Collaborate across the team to define product features and requirements.

What We're Looking For

  • Up to five years of work experience, with a degree in Computer Science, Mathematics, or Electrical Engineering (Bachelor's or Master's, grade better than 2.0), completed no earlier than 2023.

  • Full-stack fluency: React and TypeScript on the frontend (Next.js preferred), and Python on the backend.

  • Experience with Tailwind CSS.

  • Solid grounding in mixed-integer optimization, ideally with production deployments.

  • Hands-on experience with cloud infrastructure (AWS, GCP, or Azure).

  • Prior experience at an early-stage startup (under 3 years old and fewer than 50 employees).

  • A semester abroad at a strong university is a plus.

  • Genuine interest in the energy sector; prior energy industry experience is a bonus.

  • Fluent or near-fluent German, as most customers operate in German.

  • Evidence of high achievement beyond standard employment, such as selective extracurricular involvement, founding experience, or comparable demonstrations of drive and talent.

Compensation & Benefits

Salary range: 70,000 to 100,000 EUR annually. Visa sponsorship is available.

Location

On-site in Munich, Bavaria, Germany, five days per week. No remote arrangement is available for this role.
