About the Role

This is a founding-stage full-stack engineering role at an early-stage energy software company building an end-to-end platform for industrial battery storage. You will own core product development spanning real-time optimization, forecasting, and operator-facing dashboards, with direct influence on product direction and company trajectory.

What You'll Do

  • Own and build backend services and optimization algorithms that drive real-time energy asset optimization and forecasting.

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

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

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

  • Collaborate with cross-functional teammates to define and prioritize product features.

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, strong academic record required) and graduation no earlier than 2023.

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

  • Experience with Tailwind CSS.

  • Familiarity with cloud infrastructure on AWS, GCP, or Azure.

  • Experience with mixed-integer optimization or deploying optimizations in production systems is a strong plus.

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

  • Genuine interest in the energy sector, particularly battery storage or renewable energy.

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

  • Demonstrated high achievement beyond standard coursework or employment, such as founding experience or participation in selective extracurricular programs.

  • A semester or extended study abroad at a recognized international university.

  • Comfort operating at pace in an ambiguous, high-growth environment.

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.
