Job description
Software Engineer | Energy & Climate Tech | London (Hybrid)
A fast-growing energy technology company is building the intelligence layer for a cleaner, more resilient power grid - and they’re looking for engineers who want their code to have measurable, real-world impact.
The team is developing large-scale optimisation systems that coordinate EV charging, home batteries, and heating to automatically shift demand toward cleaner, lower-cost energy. The result: a smarter grid, lower emissions, and better outcomes for millions of households.
Backed by top-tier investors and scaling rapidly, this company is laying the technical foundation for a low-carbon energy network.
Why this role
- Build systems used by millions, not demos or dashboards
- Work with real-time data, optimisation, and ML-driven decision-making
- High ownership, high trust, and meaningful influence on product direction
What they’re looking for
- Engineers who enjoy solving complex, real-world problems
- A genuine interest in energy, climate, or sustainability
- Comfortable working in a fast-moving startup environment
Python is the primary language, but engineers from any modern OOP background are welcome.
London-based hybrid setup (2–3 days onsite)
If you want to work on problems that matter - and see the impact of your work in the real world - this role is worth exploring.
